This shifting of production, to Eastern Europe for example, as well as the required flexibilisation of production processes combined with resource conservation and increasing productivity are benefitting German technology manufacturers.

Positive developments have already been reported at the JIAM trade fair in Osaka, the leading technology fair for sewing equipment and the clothing machinery industry in Asia, and at SIMAC in Bologna, one of the worldwide leading trade fairs for machinery and technologies for the shoe and leather goods industry.

German manufacturers of sewing and garment machinery are also pinning their hopes on further positive impulses from Texprocess, the international leading technology trade fair for the processing of textile and flexible materials, which will be taking place next June in Frankfurt. “Texprocess can give the industry the boost that was lacking in 2012,” explained Straub.
