Cematex and its organiser, MP International, is launching a global platform at ITMA 2011 to share trends, exchange views and collaborate for the textile industry’s sustainable future.
The Sustainable Textile Leaders Roundtable Dialogue will see participation from major textile machinery manufacturers, textile and apparel producers, and brands and retailers when they converge at ITMA 2011 this September.
Organised as part of ITMA’s 60th anniversary celebrations, the inaugural dialogue is scheduled to be held on the
opening day, 22 September 2011, at the Fira de Barcelona Gran Via.
Ms Sylvia Phua, Chief Executive Officer of MP International said, “Besides focusing on innovation and creativity, industry players need to tackle pressing environmental issues to ensure the long term sustainability of their businesses and secure their place in the global economy. We are pleased to partner with Textile Exchange to launch this dialogue to help all textile leaders in their quest for sustainability.”
Consumers are increasingly demanding eco-friendly products and supporting businesses that adopt eco-friendly processes, hence textile makers need to explore cost efficient and environmentally friendly solutions to keep their customers happy.
Invited speakers will share the latest on sustainable innovations, machinery advances and trends for the future that will impact all players in the textile and garment making value chain.
