Picanol to display weaving machines at ITM Texpo Eurasia

The Turkish textile industry is also the country’s largest industry in terms of employment – it currently employs more than 2 million people. It is obvious that the Turkish textile industry is of crucial importance to Picanol and that Picanol will be prominently present at the ITM show in Istanbul.

Picanol has been serving the Turkish textile industry for more than 50 years. In 1998, Picanol set up a Turkish subsidiary, in order to more actively support its local activities. Today Picanol is the leading provider of weaving machines in Turkey. At the ITM show, Picanol will present two of its most advanced rapier weaving machines.
