Textile Machinery Association

The roundabout 130 textile technology manufacturers organised within the VDMA Textile Machinery Association represent approximately 95 % of Germany’s total production volume in this field. The main activities of the Textile Machinery Association are economic and technical representation of the branch’s interest, exchange of experiences as well as services such as statistics, observation of significant markets and reporting on the situation in the textile industry throughout the world. In addition, the Association supports the world’s largest international textile machinery exhibition ITMA (June 20 – 26, 2019, Barcelona, Spain, www.itma.com).
