Thousands of international exhibitors will choose the ITM 2021 exhibition – a meeting point of textile technology leaders, to highlight their latest innovations.

Participating companies in countries that had to interrupt their production and were the most affected by the virus like Italy, France, Spain, Germany and China, have welcomed the postponement of the ITM exhibition. The countries having similar opinions that it is not possible to fight the pandemic without effective drug treatment or vaccine against coronavirus have increased their protective measures while fighting the pandemic. The wheels have started to turn again in the factories, and production and orders have gained momentum.

Turkey, which was not affected from the pandemic as much as other countries due to lesser number of cases and death rates, continues its production in the textile sector. It will serve as the correct address for the exhibitions to be held in the post-pandemic period.

While there is shortage of mask and protective clothing all over the world, Turkey which has strong infrastructure in the field of textile, garments and nonwoven, has supplied personal protective equipment to the world and also met its own requirements. Turkey has shown that it is one of the largest producers and raw material suppliers of the world in this process. The major brands and companies in Europe and the United States shifted their orders from China to Turkey due to China being the focal point of the coronavirus pandemic. Turkey, which will accelerate technological investments due to the increase in production, will continue to lead the world textile industry.

ITM 2021 exhibition will coincide with the period when the global economy will resuscitate, which will increase the interest of the companies to the exhibition.
