Texprocess India and Gartex India have formed an unified industry platform called Gartex Texprocess India. With the merger of the two strong textile trade fair brands, the organisers, Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India and MEX Exhibitions, aspire to work in collaboration for India’s textile industry development, facilitating global sourcing and networking in the textile value chains.
Stakeholders will be provided a strong brand of enhanced offerings through a single-source business platform – Gartex Texprocess India. While Texprocess India was launched as a pavilion to create an innovation platform for garment manufacturing and textile processing at the Techtextil India tradeshow in Mumbai, Gartex India is held annually in New Delhi and has grown wider in scope covering not just garment and the textile manufacturing value chain but has also added segments like the innerwear manufacturing zone, in addition to digital textile printing, embroidery and other verticals.
Leading in both apparel consumption and exports, India holds the second largest textile manufacturing capacity globally with the textile machinery sector witnessing a growth of eight per cent to ten per cent year on year. As the world's second largest exporter of textiles and clothing, Indian apparel manufacturers are moving towards increasing their manufacturing capacities and upgrading technology, giving rise to automation garmenting processes to enter the Indian market.
