Techtextil and Texprocess reflect the innovative power of technical textiles, textile manufacturing and processing technologies. This is demonstrated by a broad spectrum of exhibitor presentations and a comprehensive complementary programme, including the Techtextil or Texprocess Innovation Awards. 

"It is a strong signal that exhibitors we missed at Techtextil and Texprocess 2022 have announced their participation again for the coming year. This confirms the international relevance of the two fairs. We offer the industry's most important innovation platform for presenting products and technologies to an international audience, exchanging ideas with the industry and expanding knowledge," explains Sabine Scharrer, Director Techtextil and Texprocess.

More than a year before the start of the events, it is already becoming apparent: exhibitors from all over the world are relying on Techtextil and Texprocess as important networking platforms and sales channels for the future. Companies from over 40 countries, including Italy, South Korea and the United States, have already registered to take part. As a new exhibitor country, compared to 2022, Brazil will be represented again. All product segments, from fibres and yarns to nonwovens and coated textiles, including textile manufacturing technology, will be presented at Techtextil. Machines, plants and processes, from cutting, sewing and embroidery technology to printing technologies and finishing, will be on show at Texprocess.

Visitors can look forward to Carrington Textiles from Great Britain, Concordia Textiles from Belgium, Everest Textile from Taiwan, Kuraray from Japan, Kusumgar Corporates from India, Groz-Beckert, Outlast Technologies and Sandler from Germany as exhibitors at Techtextil and ASTAS from Turkey, FK GROUP SPA from Italy, Kai Corporation and Tajima Industries from Japan, Amann & Söhne, Assyst/Style3D, bullmer, Brother Internationale Industriemaschinen and Dürkopp Adler from Germany at Texprocess. In addition, numerous organisers of joint stands have declared their participation. From Germany, for example, the IVGT - Industrieverband Veredlung - Garne - Gewebe - Technische Textilien e.V. (Industrial Association for Finishing - Yarns - Fabrics - Technical Textiles), VDMA Services GmbH with the VDMA Textile Machinery, the Saxon joint stand organised by the Verband der Nord-Ostdeutschen Textil- und Bekleidungsindustrie (Association of the North-East German Textile and Clothing Industry) or Bayern Innovativ with a joint presentation. Internationally, country presentations from China, France, Italy, Japan, Spain, the Czech Republic, Turkey and Switzerland are already announced.

"Techtextil, and especially the event in Frankfurt, as the leading trade fair for technical textiles and nonwovens, has shown in recent decades that it brings business partners together in one central location - not only from Europe, but from all over the world. We are looking forward to meeting the entire textile world again in Frankfurt at Techtextil 2024 and to holding personal meetings with business friends and partners. The Lenzing Group will continue to bring the idea of sustainability in the fiber industry to the world of technical textiles. Techtextil offers us an ideal platform for this," says Oliver Spöcker, Director Workwear & Protective Wear, Global Commercial Director FR Fibers at Lenzing AG.

"Techtextil in Frankfurt has always been a very important trade fair for SAHM. The Techtextil trade fairs abroad in Atlanta or Mumbai are also part of our trade fair portfolio. This is where we meet our customers and partners and exchange ideas. We missed this very much during the Corona period. We are therefore very much looking forward to Techtextil North America in Atlanta and Techtextil 2024 in Frankfurt," explains Heike Kollmann, Head of Marketing at SAHM.

"The expectations of the entire textile processing industry are very high, also with regard to sustainable development. These must be addressed with future-oriented innovations and products. A sustainable transformation will continue to drive the industry forward decisively. Texprocess plays a decisive role in this. The world's leading trade fair is the best possible platform for international experts to see innovations, digitalisation and customised solutions and thus to generate sustainable potential," says Elgar Straub, General Manager of the Texprocess partner association VDMA Textile Care, Fabric and Leather Technologies.

„Texprocess is the international trade fair of reference for our industry. It is important for Battistella to be present here and to stay in touch with all the important buyers in the sector. We expect the best innovations in the industry to be in step with the times. We are planning to bring many innovations to our machinery, that we will be presenting at Texprocess. For us, personal encounters with our customers is essential. Building the trust and respect of our customers can only happen in face-to-face meetings. Exhibiting at Texprocess also connects us to a network of possible buyers,“ says Michele Battistella, Sales Manager at Battistella.

The past Techtextil and Texprocess in June 2022, with an internationality level of 66 percent on the visitor side, confirmed how important it is for the international branch to come together in person at one place. Getting to know new products, expanding specialist knowledge and networking or exchanging experiences were among the most frequently mentioned objectives of trade visitors to Techtextil and Texprocess 2022. 96 percent of visitors to Techtextil and 94 percent to Texprocess achieved their goals for visiting the fair. The coming edition also meets these requirements to a high degree. Here, the international participants in the sector and relevant market players come together in an ideal setting. The extensive complementary programme, including the Techtextil or Texprocess Forum and Innovation Awards, complements the visit to the fair.
