To display all latest high-tech weaving machines at India-ITME

India ITME 2012 to be held in Mumbai is the largest exhibition of its kind in India and is expected to attract over 1,25,000 trade visitors.

Picanol will take this opportunity to present all its latest high-tech weaving machines and to underline its prominent position in the Indian market by showing four high-tech weaving machines on its booth.

Besides the recently introduced airjet, the OMNIplus Summum, the state-of-the-art rapier machines like the OptiMax and the GTXplus will also be on display.

In addition, one Picanol Jacquard TERRYplus 800 weaving machine will be on display on the Stäubli booth and an OptiMax jacquard weaving machine on the Bonas/Van De Wiele booth. The Picanol booth is located in the Open Bay Area, K1.

Picanol has been successfully serving the Indian market since 1956. In view of the potential and expected growth of the Indian market, the company decided to set up its own organization in India early 2008 in order to more actively support its local activities. Since the start of its operations, particularly during the last decade, Picanol has been focussing strongly on local sales and service activities.

In recent years, Picanol India has seen a steady growth in its market share, which has led to it becoming the leading provider of weaving machines on the local market today. India is a market of crucial importance for Picanol as it is one of the key textile markets in the world.

As part of its further commitment to the Indian market and marking a new milestone in India, Picanol inaugurated its new headquarters in downtown New Delhi in August last. Next to the main office in Delhi, regional offices in Mumbai and Coimbatore are proof of a strong Picanol presence in the Indian market with a team of 35 professionals committed to serve its customers.

With the broadest product range on the market, improved local services and considerable presence, Picanol remains highly committed to India and plans to be the leading provider of weaving systems for the entire Indian weaving sector.
