LARGE-SCALE EXPOSITION REFLECTS SYNERGY OF KEY EVENTS IN TEXTILE INDUSTRY
The 12th Central Asian International Exhibition for Textile Equipment and Technologies - CAITME 2018 opens its doors on September 5, 2018 in Tashkent. The exhibition is organized by Iteca Exhibitions International Exhibition Company.
In parallel with CAITME 2018, the 1st International Exhibition of Textile and Fashion Industry - UzTextile Expo 2018 will be held. The organizers remind that on April 27, 2018, a Memorandum was signed between the Agency for Advertising and Marketing of Textile Products under Uztekstilprom Association and Iteca Exhibitions International Exhibition Company in order to bond the 15-year experience of the International Exhibition Textile Expo Uzbekistan and International Textile Fair and create a new exhibition project UzTextile Expo.
This year, for the first time, the professionals of textile and light industry will enjoy the maximum effect of that synergy at the single exhibition space provided by UzTextile Expo and CAITME. This will enable participants and visitors of the exhibitions to appreciate benefits of this unity, where a full cycle of textile production and technologies from yarn to ready-made garments will be presented.
The exhibitions will be held in the capital of Uzbekistan, from 5 to 7 September, and will occupy the entire exhibition area of Uzexpocentre.
Uzbekistan has rightfully gained a status of one of the world textile production centres, and we are proud that it is the only country among the Central Asian countries, where the leading industry event in the field of technologies for textile and clothing industry – CAITME is organized. This unique event opens up unlimited opportunities for attracting advanced technologies to the country, upgrading production facilities, establishing mutually beneficial cooperation. According to experts, CAITME is the largest exhibition of textile equipment in the CIS countries. This year, the event is undergoing another exhibition audit and we are sure that it will once again confirm its status of the leading event in the CIS.
The exhibition will demonstrate the best technological developments and textile and sewing equipment manufacture allowing to improve quality and competitiveness of domestic products through revamping and modernization of production lines.
This year’s exhibition is impressive by its scope. CAITME will occupy four pavilions of Uzexpocentre. For convenience of visiting the pavilions, they have been split into sections according to the equipment presented and companies:
