Micro-Factories
Micro-Factories – an approach to textile processing which is fully networked and allows individualised products, while working rapidly, flexibly and locally – was the focal subject at Texprocess 2019. Texprocess 2019 featured five micro-factories.
„Sustainability at Texprocess“: In the field of the processing of textile and flexible materials, more and more firms are adopting approaches to greater sustainability.
Through a branch of Fashionsustain Berlin, Messe Frankfurt's conference on sustainable textile innovations, the Texprocess Forum was devoted exclusively to the theme of sustainability in the textile and fashion industries in all its aspects.
According to the United Nations, nearly 70 percent of all people are expected to be living in metropolises and megacities by 2050. This poses new challenges for living and mobility concepts, as well as food supplies and health services provision. Functional apparel, with smart functions for example, could also play an even more important role in people’s everyday lives in the future.
Digitalisation, individualisation, industry 4.0 – these are the drivers of innovation within the textile industry. The Micro-Factories at Texprocess showed an integrated production chain live. With IT@Texprocess, the trade fair presented high-performance IT solutions for the textile and clothing industry.
A major focal point of Techtextil and Texprocess is trainees in the textile sector. Both fairs offer a common Campus for international universities and academies, the student competition for textile building and the BMWi area for young companies.
