The ITMA exhibition for textile and machinery, taking place in November 12-19, 2015, in Milan, will see Swiss Oerlikon Group presenting its Manmade Fibres this year. André Wissenberg, Head, Marketing (Corporate Communications and Public Affairs), Oerlikon has said, though the market is tough and increasingly becoming difficult for business, they will continue with their thrust to introduce new products and innovations. The group is entering into a partnership with Chinese firm Huitong to expand its base in polycondensation business, apart from eyeing consolidation in its offering of manmade fibre spinning systems solutions.
Wissenberg maintained they are holding superiority in the global market in the area of fibre spinning system for polyester, nylon and polypropylene when it comes to expertise and capability to manufacture and introduce them. The maxim they follow is ‘From melt to yarn, fibres and nonwovens is our maxim.
’ Besides, the group is expected to display experiments and improvements made in filament spinning and texturing, monofilaments and FDY sections also. The head of marketing said that innovations are in line with the group’s philosophy aimed at increasing the element of sustainability in products. Oerlikon, with its two brands Oerlikon Barmag and Oerlikon Neumag will also review the success of past developments in the exhibition.
