ITM 2026 to Spotlight Sustainable and Digital Transformation in Textile Machinery
The ITM 2026 International Textile Machinery Exhibition is set to highlight the textile industry’s ongoing transition toward environmentally responsible production and digitally driven manufacturing. With a strong emphasis on sustainability and advanced technologies, the exhibition will present a comprehensive outlook on the future of textile machinery, ranging from energy-efficient equipment to artificial intelligence–enabled systems.
Organised through a collaboration between Tüyap Tüm Fuarcılık Yapım A.Ş. and Teknik Fuarcılık A.Ş., in partnership with the Textile Machinery and Accessories Industrialists Association (TEMSAD), ITM 2026 will take place at the Tüyap Fair and Congress Center from 9–13 June 2026. The event will bring together leading global manufacturers of textile technologies, with this edition focusing on two central industry priorities: green technologies and digital integration.
Advancing Climate-Conscious Textile Manufacturing
As the textile sector aligns with international climate targets, ITM 2026 will present innovations aimed at reducing environmental impact across production stages. Exhibits will include dyeing technologies designed to limit water consumption, weaving systems developed for improved energy efficiency, and machinery capable of processing recycled raw materials. These “green machines” reflect the industry’s growing focus on lowering carbon emissions while supporting circular production models.
Sustainability as a Core Industry Requirement
Sustainable production has become an essential consideration for textile manufacturers worldwide. ITM 2026 will showcase technologies that prioritize durability, resource efficiency, and reduced environmental footprint. Energy-saving systems, closed-loop water solutions, and responsible chemical application technologies will feature prominently, offering manufacturers practical insights into achieving both environmental and operational efficiency.
Digital Technologies Reshaping Textile Production
Digital transformation will be another central theme of ITM 2026. The exhibition will feature machinery integrated with artificial intelligence, automation, data analytics, and digital twin technologies, enabling real-time monitoring, enhanced production efficiency, and lower error rates. These solutions play a critical role in the development of smart factories and will provide a platform for industry professionals to exchange knowledge and technical expertise.
A Global Business and Investment Platform
Hosted in Istanbul, ITM 2026 will serve as a meeting point for textile machinery manufacturers, industry professionals, and investors from around the world. Visitors will have the opportunity to examine next-generation R&D developments, assess solutions supporting sustainability and digitalization, and gain insights that support long-term investment and modernization strategies within textile manufacturing facilities.
Visitor registration for ITM 2026 will be available through the exhibition’s online invitation system, allowing registered participants to access the fair efficiently upon arrival.
