The Turkish Market will Always Be Important for Us
Head of Itema Group Sales, Spare Parts, Service and Marketing Group Matteo Mutti said; “As you know, Turkey is a big textile market. It is a big market for us together with China, India and others. We have a good reputation in Turkey. We are sure that this market will always be important for us.”
Itema, a global leader in weaving solutions, offers a comprehensive range of advanced weaving machines, spare parts and integrated services. Itema prioritizes customer success by providing user-friendly interfaces, training programs and reliable support to optimize weaving performance. We interviewed with Matteo Mutti, Head of Itema Group Sales, Spare Parts, Service and Marketing for Tekstil Teknoloji magazine. The highlights of the interview are as follows:
“Our Rapier Weaving Machine is Both Environmentally Friendly and Saves Money”
At ITM we are exhibiting our flagship rapier loom. This is a device that saves money and is environmentally friendly as it reduces yarn waste. This is not something original. Our competitors also have this. But our technology is better because it is a new and unique technology that allows you to play with the weft selector. So it enables the presentation of colors without restricting opportunities.
“We Designed a Special Machine for Curtain Production”
Our machines offer several advantages: Ease of use, improved reliability and enhanced performance. In particular, we have designed a machine specifically designed for curtain production. Given Turkey’s important curtain market, this series was strategically positioned for the presentation.
“The Only Way to Compete is to Produce Higher Quality Machines”
Basically, there is a big challenge coming from the Far East, as there always has been in history when it comes to production. So the Chinese are the biggest producers in the world today. For us, the only way to be competitive and to offer added value to our customers is to offer something at a higher level. We have to be extraordinary. That’s our goal. So we are looking for a higher level of machinery, a higher level of fabric production. Also, it’s very important to take better care of the customers and we care a lot about that.
“Participating in Exhibitions Continues to be a Valuable Endeavour”
You know, Turkey is a big textile market. It is a big market for us along with China, India and others. We have a good reputation in Turkey. We are sure that this market will always be important for us.
Exhibitions offer consistent opportunities for networking and interaction. They provide a platform to connect with customers, including those from the Middle East. They also allow us to interact with our business partners, assess our position relative to customer expectations and gauge our competitiveness against industry competitors. Overall, participating in exhibitions remains a worthwhile endeavor.
