Interest in Texcare International is strong with 247 companies from 30 countries registered and exhibition space almost fully booked, according to a news release. Texcare International will bring together textile care experts from November 6-9 Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
“We are delighted with the strong response from the industry. Texcare will have an enormous range this time – in addition to the major manufacturers of machinery, chemicals and textiles, there will also be many new companies, for example from the robotics and IT sectors,” said Johannes Schmid-Wiedersheim, director of Texcare. “With exhibitors from all over Europe, Asia and North America, we are once again achieving a very high level of internationality. Visitors can therefore expect a comprehensive overview of innovations from all product areas of textile care.”
Thanks to improved utilisation of the available hall space, Texcare 2024 will take place in Hall 8 and the Galleria – the exhibition area will remain virtually unchanged compared to the previous event. Among the exhibitors who have registered are Alliance Laundry, Christeyns, Danube, Domus Laundry, Girbau, Ecolab, Jensen, Kannegiesser, LAVATEC, LG Electronics, Metalprogetti, Milnor, Multimatic, Sankosha, Texfinity and Veit.
“It is important for our industry to finally meet in person again,” said Andreas Schumacher, managing director of the German Textile Cleaning Association. “Particularly in view of the current challenges, such as rising costs, especially in the energy sector, and the shortage of skilled labour, I think it is essential to experience the industry’s innovations and discuss ideas for new business areas together.”
The comprehensive range of products and services at Texcare is aimed at commercial laundries, textile service providers and dry cleaners, as well as hotels, hospitals, care homes and other businesses that professionally handle their own laundry.
The textile care industry is not immune to challenges such as labour shortages. Digital technologies are increasingly helping to compensate for this situation and optimise work processes. Automation is therefore one of the top themes at Texcare International 2024.
Other important industry topics are the circular economy and energy efficiency – both levers for making processes in laundries and dry cleaners more efficient and sustainable. The focus will also be on new developments in textile hygiene.
