Textile manufacturers from Uzbekistan and the surrounding region will discover innovations at the Asteks booth

Asteks International Sales & Marketing Manager Taner Engin stated that Uzbekistan is a market where they have successfully and intensively been working and noted that they will focus on this growing market throughout the event. “We have a strong position in Uzbekistan. We receive repeat orders and new business demands from several existing customers. We also continue to deliver both our aprons and cots, as well as our machines, to customers who choose us for the first time. Therefore, our primary goal at CAITME 2025 will be to reach Uzbek textile manufacturers. Furthermore, thanks to the exhibition’s broad scope, we also want to connect with industry professionals and decision-makers from surrounding countries such as Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and even Russia. In short, the event will become an ideal platform for accessing not only Central Asia and the Turkic Republics, but also the surrounding region. Visitors will be able to discover innovations and opportunities at our booth to grow their businesses. Our expert team will be on hand throughout the exhibition to provide them with the best possible welcome and detailed information,” he said.

Engin announced that they will convey the message at the event that they offer a complete and comprehensive service of superior quality for spinning systems, drawing on their extensive knowledge and experience in apron and cot products and cots grinding solutions. Noting that their brand recognition is quite high in the regional market thanks to their product quality and performance, as well as their high customer satisfaction service, he continued: “Asteks develops its products 100% through its own R&D efforts and proudly presents them to its customers with the ‘Made in Türkiye’ label, and quickly makes a difference in all export markets it reaches and establishes strong ties with textile manufacturers. By optimizing our services with our local partners, we offer our customers the best products under the best conditions. In this context, CAITME 2025 will be beneficial both in further strengthening our relationships with existing customers and in reaching potential new ones.”

Asteks has recently made significant strides in emerging textile markets such as Egypt, Bangladesh, and Brazil, meanwhile maintaining a competitive position, particularly with its cots grinding solutions. Having been present in the Uzbekistan market for many years, the company also handles new orders, production, and deliveries with a rapid schedule. Local textile manufacturers in the region prefer Asteks’ aprons and cots for their high quality, durability, and successful performance under challenging production conditions. They also particularly favour the brand’s solutions for cot grinding machines. The 401-SF&M cot grinding machine is attracting significant interest in this region due to its advantages and efficiency.

The next stop after CAITME 2025 is ITMA ASIA + CITME Singapore

Asteks has a busy autumn schedule and will be strongly participating in ITMA ASIA + CITME Singapore 2025 to be held on October 28-31, following CAITME 2025.
