INTERNATIONAL

More than eight years since the last Texcare International, the organiser of the 15th edition welcomed the global market for modern textile care to Messe Frankfurt for the four-day Texcare International 2024 exhibition (6-9 November).

“Trade fairs continue to play an important role and there is no substitute for personal encounters at our leading trade fairs. I’m happy to announce: This is the last ‘Restart Fair’ for Messe Frankfurt after the pandemic,” said  Iris Jeglitza-Moshage, Chief of Corporate Identity (CCI), Senior Vice President Technology, at Messe Frankfurt.

“When we look closer at the textile care industry, since 2016 it has embraced significant technological advancements, integrating smart technology for enhanced efficiency. 

“And over the next four days, we will dive deep into the themes of automation, energy and resources, circularity and textile Hygiene – our top themes this year. 

“Hall 8 is fully booked up. This means 305 exhibitors of 32 nations are showing their products from drycleaning and laundry technology, to detergents and cleaning agents, to professional textiles, workwear and protective clothing, as well as IT and logistics solutions. Including all market leaders and one third first-time exhibitors. This year, 72% of the exhibitors come from abroad. 

“I would like to thank our partners of many years’ standing. A successful event such as Texcare International would not be possible without their commitment. Our partners are the VDMA Garment and Leather Technology Association, the German Textile Care Association (DTV),” said Jeglitza-Moshage.
