“Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition Provides Companies with Direct Access to the Latest Technologies”

We believe that organizations like Garment Tech Istanbul Exhibition provide great value not only to the textile and garment sector but also to the Turkish economy. Especially in the export-oriented ready-to-wear and garment industry, the technology and knowledge sharing provided by such exhibitions accelerates transformation in the sector. The exhibition brings together local manufacturers and international visitors under one roof, offering companies direct access to the latest technologies. This improves production quality and allows significant advancements in areas like efficiency and automation. Strengthening the technological infrastructure boosts companies’ efficiency and makes it possible to produce high value-added products. Additionally, such platforms accelerate the flow of information in the sector, contributing to increasing firms’ competitiveness on a global scale. This, in turn, positively impacts export figures and employment.

At the exhibition, we will be showcasing high-precision ironing and press robots, as well as table-based solutions, along with our energy-efficient (Eco Power) and user-friendly machines for textile and garment production processes. With our next-generation solutions, especially those integrated with automation systems, we aim to help companies save time, reduce energy consumption, and cut costs in their production processes.

Are there specific business connections or markets you are targeting during the exhibition?
Yes, we are aiming to establish new business connections in the Middle East, Central Asia, North Africa, and Eastern Europe markets. These regions are developing textile production areas with strong commercial ties to Turkiye. Additionally, we want to increase our sectoral business relationships by forming strategic partnerships with local manufacturers.

What do you think are the biggest needs of the Turkish garment and ready-to-wear sector, and how can this exhibition address those needs?
The sector’s biggest needs include digitalization, sustainable production solutions, and the ability to employ skilled labor. Additionally, speed and flexibility in the supply chain are crucial for companies to stand out in global competition. By bringing together technology providers and solution partners capable of addressing these needs, the exhibition becomes an innovation and collaboration hub for the sector. In this regard, it plays an essential role in shaping not only today’s but also the future textile industry.
