In view of these buoyant market opportunities, textile machinery manufacturers are leveraging on the established branding of ITMA, ITMA ASIA and CITME to market their latest products. A quality showcase of cutting-edge solutions and live machinery demonstrations, the combined show features strict admission criteria that allows the participation of only bona fide manufacturers.
To be held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre from 27 to 31 July 2008, the exhibition is expected to span 100,000 square metres. It is projected to attract over 1,000 Chinese and international exhibitors, and about 100,000 trade visitors.
