ITMA Experience

The 16th edition of ITMA, the world’s most established textile and garment machinery technology exhibition held in Barcelona from 22th to 29th September 2011 was a great success.

Trade visitorship of over 100,000 from 138 countries was registered for the eight-day event held at Fira de Barcelona Gran Via fairgrounds. Just over 90 per cent of the visitors came from outside of Spain. The international mix of visitors and buyers was very well received by exhibitors.

MODSIMTEX Project was present at the booths of Intexter, Autex, DITE-MR, Santoni and Penelope CAD Systems. Many different companies was really interested in the project.

Mr Stephen Combes, President of CEMATEX said, “ITMA 2011 has surpassed our expectations. Considering that the world is still facing economic difficulties, the vast majority of our exhibitors are delighted with the quality and the number of visitors. According to our national associations, their members have reported significant enquiries and many have taken even more orders than they hoped for."
