UPDATED HISTORY
Messe Frankfurt has announced that Texcare International will appear next year and will take place from November 27 to December 1, 2021.
According to the organizers, Messe Frankfurt, together with the German Textile Cleaning Association and the VDMA Textile Care, Fabric and Leather Technologies, decided to reschedule the event due to the economic situation caused by the corona pandemic and the expected travel restrictions.
In a statement by Messe Frankfurt it says: “As a result of the Corona crisis, it was necessary at short notice to postpone Texcare International, originally planned for June 2020, to October 2020. To what extent the travel restrictions will have been lifted this autumn is still unclear. In addition, both the international textile cleaning industry and laundries are suffering from the economic consequences of the pandemic, particularly in the areas of tourism, gastronomy and workwear.
"Messe Frankfurt, German Textile Cleaning Association (DTV) and VDMA Textile Care,
Fabric and Leather Technologies has therefore decided to postpone Texcare International to November 2021 to offer the industry an event that can offer new incentives for international textile care. "
Wolfgang Marzin, President and CEO of Messe Frankfurt, said: "We want to fully meet the expectations the industry has of a leading trade fair like Texcare International. The current regulations for major events, the continuing restrictions on global travel, and however, the critical economic situation calls this goal into question.
“At the same time, we want to avoid unnecessary costs at an early stage in the interest of exhibitors and visitors. None of us made this decision lightly, but we are now focusing our energy on helping the economic recovery at the right moment through the 2021 event. "
Andreas Schumacher, managing director of the German Textile Cleaning Association, calls this a great opportunity for textile care companies. "Texcare International in Frankfurt is the industry's leading trade show, and our companies have a keen interest in holding it in 2021. If Texcare International didn't take place, it would be a great loss not only for companies in the industry in Europe, but above and would seriously hinder necessary innovation and company modernization. "
Manufacturers of machines and systems also attach great importance to presenting their innovations to an international public. Elgar Staub, Managing Director of VDMA Textile Care, Fabric and Leather Technologies, said: "In recent years, manufacturers have developed numerous innovations that include digitalization and intelligent data management. These innovations help the textile care industry to improve in economically difficult times. Competitiveness: In November 2021, Texcare, as the leading international technology trade fair, offers manufacturers of machines and systems an outstanding and highly anticipated platform to position the textile care industry with its customers from all over the world as possible with the challenges of the future after the Corona crisis. "
Texcare International takes place every four years in Frankfurt am Main and its regular rotation reflects the innovation cycle of the industry. It is the leading international trade fair for textile care with a high degree of international participation by both exhibitors and visitors.
