Texcare Asia, the region’s most acclaimed trade exhibition for the international textile-care sector, gets ready to open its doors for the eighth edition. Scheduled to take place from 25 – 27 November 2015 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre in China, the show is recognised as a stepping stone for global suppliers to tap into the rapidly-expanding laundry and dry-cleaning markets in China and Asia.
Organised by Messe Frankfurt Shanghai Co Ltd and China Light Industry Machinery Association (CLIMA), the three-day show teams up with over 150 exhibitors from 19 countries and regions, utilising 17,000 sqm of exhibition area across two halls. Altogether they showcase a comprehensive collection of energy-efficient solutions and innovative equipment in laundry, dry-cleaning, ironing, dyeing and textile management systems, creating an ideal one-stop sourcing and trade platform for thousands of buyers from all over the region.
In addition to the support from textile-care industry associations in China, the show is endorsed by a number of global associations, including those from Australia, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, Macau, Malaysia, Russia, Singapore and Taiwan. A number of professional buyer delegations are organised and collectively over 200 association members are expected to be in attendance.
