Design has become an up-and-coming trend with continuous and rapid development on digital printing technology and relevant equipment designed for knitted fabrics, digital printing. It gives a rise to the new Digital Printing Machinery Zone in YiwuTex 2016, which will showcase the latest advanced technology on digital printing and its enormous market potential for industry players.
The rise in production costs and strict environmental regulations on knitting industry resulted in higher entry barriers and greater challenges for knitwear manufacturers.
