Trützschler Reports Strong Interest at ITMA ASIA Singapore

Trützschler Highlights Automation, Recycling Innovation, and Strong Market Interest at ITMA ASIA + CITME Singapore 2025

SINGAPORE — Trützschler concluded ITMA ASIA + CITME Singapore 2025 on a highly positive note, reporting strong visitor engagement and significant interest across its spinning, card clothing, and nonwovens innovations.

Speaking to Kohan Textile Journal, Dr. Bettina Temath, Head of Global Marketing at Trützschler, emphasized that Singapore proved to be an ideal hub for connecting with key Asian textile markets.

“Singapore is a very good location for us because it offers excellent access to our customer regions,” she noted. “We were pleased with the number and quality of visitors from Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Vietnam, and across Asia. The response exceeded our expectations.”

Strong Demand for Automation and High-Efficiency Machinery

Trützschler showcased an extensive range of technologies from all business units, reflecting the company’s focus on automation, quality control, and productivity.

Key highlights included:

T-CAN Automated Can Transport System — designed to address labor shortages and rising labor costs while ensuring consistent material allocation.

TC 30i Carding Machine — launched in 2024 and already recognized for delivering up to 40% higher production with excellent market feedback.

ID3 Integrated Draw Frame — appreciated for its stability and high-level automation.

In card clothing, Trützschler presented its complete wire portfolio, including the new Precise Top 52 flat top, offering longer lifetime, higher resistance, and improved nap removal.

The nonwovens division displayed its full spectrum of air-through bonding, needle punching, and spunlacing solutions.

Truecycle: A Complete Pathway for Textile Waste Recycling

Dr. Temath also highlighted Trützschler’s growing commitment to circularity.

“With Truecycle, we offer a complete recycling system — from tearing to recycled fiber preparation,” she explained. “Today, the most feasible model is pre-consumer waste, but the real challenge is scaling up to post-consumer waste. The industry still needs a clear legislative framework to move forward.”

Market Outlook: Slow but Cyclical

While acknowledging that global demand remains subdued, Dr. Temath emphasized that the textile industry is inherently cyclical.

“We have seen many ups and downs. After every slump, the market eventually recovers,” she said.
She added that China remains a strong market, while regions such as Egypt and Türkiye continue to offer long-term potential due to competitive labor costs, strong infrastructure, and a skilled textile workforce.
