Elgar Straub, managing director of VDMA Textile Care, Fabric and Leather Technologies, has applauded the extension of Texcare trade fairs to include the American Clean Show.

Messe Frankfurt, the international trade fair, congress and event organiser with its own exhibition grounds in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, last week announced a deal with the Clean Show Executive Committee (CEC) to purchase the Clean Show.

“As Messe Frankfurt's partner for all Texcare trade fairs worldwide and as conceptual sponsor of Texcare International, we are delighted that Messe Frankfurt has included the US Clean Show in its portfolio,” said Straub. “We congratulate all participating associations and partners on this forward-looking decision.”

“The Clean Show, together with Texcare International and Texcare Asia, is one of the leading technology fairs in our industry and will help the entire value chain master the challenges of the coming years from digitisation to sustainability and from Industrie 4.0 integration/automation to the best possible customer benefit.”
