I Think that ITM will Strengthen Its Position in the Future
Richard Fander, Sales and Marketing Director at Fong’s Europe, said: “We can see that ITM is developing in a very strong and innovative way compared to the past. The biggest advantage of Turkey is that it is a country where visas can be easily obtained. Therefore, we can see customers from many different countries at this exhibition.”
Participating in ITM 2024 with the products of Fong’s, Then, Goller and Xorella brands, Fong’s Europe welcomed its visitors with advanced airflow technologies. Fong’s Europe, which offers its customers a combined machine that reduces consumption figures while combining hydraulic system and airflow, has been working in this field for a long time. Richard Fander, Sales and Marketing Director of Fong’s Europe, points out that their R&D teams are working hard to make environmentally friendly productions in line with the latest trends. The highlights of the interview are as follows.
“Our R&D Teams Produce Cutting-Edge Technology Machinery”
We have strong teams of software engineers in China and Europe. They are developing new ideas for automating and digitalizing the textile industry and dyeing machines. We can control the machines up close like in the past, but now we also have remote access. Or, for example, we can see consumption figures instantly.
“In the Future We will be able to Track the Carbon Footprint of Fabrics”
“One of the most important topics on our agenda is sustainability. We see that we are moving towards a greener world. In the future, it will be possible to see the material, carbon footprint and consumption figures of fabrics by tracking their origin. We are also working on this. We are working with big retailers to reach as low consumption figures as possible.”
“We Have Visitors from All Over the World”
“ITM has arrived at the right time. We have been struggling with economic problems for a long time, partly caused by Covid. On top of that, there were supply chain issues and delivery delays. Then came geopolitical issues and high energy costs. All this led to high interest rates. Now we are on the rise again. We will have more chances to sell new machines in the coming days. ITM 2024 is an important platform as it brings together many customers. Customers from all over the world are here and interested in our machines.”
“ITM is Developing Strongly and Innovatively”
“We can see that ITM is developing in a very strong and innovative way compared to the past. Turkey’s biggest advantage is that it is a country with easy visa access. Therefore, we can see customers from many different countries at this exhibition. Another opportunity that this event offers is that it gives the participants an accurate overview of the latest developments in the sector. I think that ITM, which is one of the important exhibitions of the textile sector, will strengthen its position even more in the future.
