Interview: Tuğba KARADEMİR
The Garment Tech İstanbul Exhibition, where digital solutions that will increase the sector’s competitiveness will be showcased, will bring together the garment and ready-to-wear worlds. Rıza Temel, Sales and Marketing Manager at Polytropon, says, “The Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition provides a platform that can strongly respond to the sector’s needs for efficiency, sustainability, and digitalization by directly connecting such innovative solutions with the manufacturers.”
Polytropon, which has been guiding the digitalization journey of the textile and garment sector for many years, adds speed, flexibility, and efficiency to production processes with the innovative software it has developed. Moving with the vision of transforming technology into solutions that meet the real needs of the sector, the company will once again showcase this approach at the Garment Tech Istanbul Ehibition. With a wide range of products, from user-friendly interfaces to integrated production infrastructures, Polytropon aims to strengthen its relationships with existing partners and open the door to new collaborations.
“At the exhibition, we aim to make a difference with our software solutions that increase speed and efficiency in production processes and our industry-specific technologies.”
What are your expectations from the Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition for Garment, Embroidery Machines Spare Parts, and Sub-Industry?
I would define our main expectation from the Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition as establishing direct contact with both our existing customers and introducing our company’s solutions to potential customers. At the exhibition, we aim to make a difference with our user-friendly interface, software solutions that increase speed and efficiency in production processes, and industry-specific technologies. Moreover, closely following the demands of the sector and making our software solutions more compatible with market needs is one of our key features, and exhibitions like this provide a great opportunity to meet with our customers.
Can you share your views on the contributions of the Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition to the Turkish economy and especially to the Turkish garment and ready-to-wear sector?
We believe that this exhibition will play a major role in the meeting of Turkiye’s strong garment and ready-to-wear sector with technology. The gathering of domestic and foreign companies under one roof will increase knowledge sharing and accelerate the digital transformation processes in the sector. Polytropon has been continuously participating in such exhibitions, both nationally and internationally, for over 30 years. As always, we will be pleased to contribute to the digitalization process in the sector with our smart software solutions at this echibition as well.
Can you talk about the products you plan to showcase at the Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition?
Polytropon is a company that develops software for textile and garment manufacturers, meaning we produce solutions according to the demands from the sector. Our PolyPattern CAD pattern creation software, the highly efficient AutoMarker Pro Server automatic marker placement solution, and PolyOrganize PLM software will be in the spotlight. We are already a market leader in Turkiye and worldwide with the Browzwear 3D program. We will present the latest versions of these solutions to our customers. Additionally, we will introduce our digital solutions for integrated production processes and customizable software infrastructures tailored to different needs. Visitors will be able to experience our products firsthand with practical presentations throughout the exhibition.
“We aim to establish business connections with textile and garment manufacturers coming from both within Turkiye and abroad.”
Do you have specific business connections or markets in mind during the exhibition?
In addition to the thousands of companies worldwide that actively use our solutions, we aim to establish business connections with textile and garment manufacturers coming from both within Turkiye and abroad during the exhibition. We plan to have one-on-one meetings with companies looking to invest in increasing their efficiency. Countries with garment production are not unfamiliar to us; we work with them both directly and through our extensive dealer network. However, due to recent geopolitical circumstances, we believe that African countries may turn more towards textile production, and this exhibitiob will be important for them to be able to make technological procurements.
What do you think are the biggest needs of the Turkish garment and ready-to-wear sector, and how can this exhibitions address those needs?
The sector’s primary need is to use time and resources more efficiently to remain competitive, and this will be possible with the right technology investment. Our goal is to produce quality products in a shorter time and at a lower cost. The Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition provides a platform that can strongly respond to the sector’s needs for efficiency, sustainability, and digitalization by directly connecting such innovative solutions with the manufacturer. A lasting solution is to everyone’s advantage.
