During the 2 days event, members of CEMATEX exchanged thoughts, experiences and aligned to face the challenges and opportunities ahead for the European textile machinery industry.

The host association, GTM, invited CEMATEX members to discover Eindhoven’s industrial innovation ecosystem, Brainport, which includes the well-known chip machine company ASML. It was a major source of inspiration for CEMATEX members to take the lead in the development of innovative textile machinery technology to address sustainability challenges.

The CEMATEX membership also launched a plea for simple and industry supportive regulation that is enforced on all products to assure a level playing field.
