Fiera Milano Rho
Milan, Italy
The United States Fashion Industry Association (USFIA) is proud to support ITMA 2015!
ITMA, the world’s most established integrated textile and garment manufacturing exhibition, is a unique showcase of the very latest textile and garment technologies, as well as raw materials. Featuring 19 key exhibit chapters over 200,000 square metres, the 17th edition of ITMA will showcase the latest technologies and innovations on the whole production chain from spinning, nonwovens, weaving, knitting right through to finishing.
With the success of the enhanced exhibit profiles in the last edition, ITMA 2015 will continue to expand its focus on garment making and fibre and yarn to reflect growing industry demand for a one-stop sourcing platform. The theme for ITMA 2015 “Master the Art of Sustainable Innovation” underscores the importance of the drive towards sustainability in the entire textile and garment value chain. In line with industry trends and needs, ITMA 2015 will spotlight innovations that promote sustainability.
The exhibition will be complemented by several knowledge exchange and networking platforms. Among them are the:
- Research and Innovation Speaker's Platform
- World Textile Summit
- Nonwovens Forum
- Textile Colourants and Chemicals Leaders Forum
In addition, a new initiative has been launched - the ITMA Sustainable Innovation Award. This Award is launched by CEMATEX, the European Committee of Textile Machinery Manufacturers, to encourage and recognise outstanding industry members and students for their contributions to the sustainable development of the global textile and garment industry. The ITMA Sustainable Innovation Award comprises three categories: Industry Excellence Award, R&E Excellence Award – Masters and R&E Excellence Award – Doctorate. The latter two are open to post-graduate students. More information can be found at http://www.itma.com/abouttheaward.html
Online pre-registration will begin in 2015. If you wish to receive show updates, please join the ITMA mailing list.
