Dear Business Partners,

I am happy to connect with you through this page of our company n e w s l e t t e r , CommunicATE, in our special issue on ITME 2016!

As we approach the financial year end, the I n d i a n e c o n o m y p r e s e n t s a m i x e d picture. On one side we had some waves due to

demonetisation, but with GDP pegged to 6.5 to 6.75% this fiscal, and expected to rebound to between 6.75% to 7.5% next year, the overall situation still looks reasonably healthy. The scenario in the Indian textile industry too is no different. Here we also have an additional silver lining – the successful completion of ITME 2016 held from 3 to 8 December 2016 at Mumbai, which attracted a huge footfalls – 1.10 lacs+ from close to 75 countries.

ITME is a major event, one that is keenly awaited by both the key stakeholders – the textile machinery manufacturers and the textile industry. It provides an excellent platform for the machinery manufacturers around the world to showcase the latest in textile technology, and for the textile mills to keep abreast with the latest developments and choose the best of the technology to maintain and or to improve their competitive edge globally. It is imperative for the Indian textile industry to continuously focus on innovation/technical upgradation to exploit global business opportunities in textiles with the global apparel market size projected to reach US$ 2.6 trillion by 2025 from US $ 1.7 trillion in 2015 with India’s share expected to rise from US $ 59 billion to US $ 180 billion @ 12% CAGR (source: Wazir report). The mood at the event surely indicates that the Indian textile industry is looking for and is ready to grab this opportunity by making investments in the right technology.

At A.T.E. we along with our principals were present in full strength at ITME 2016, occupying a total area of 2100 sq. m. In all, 30+ of our principals participated in this exhibition with over 100 representatives

from our overseas principals attending this event. A.T.E. had a stall of 576 sq. m. in the Processing hall no. 6, in which we had 23 of our principals with individual stalls that include Fongs’ Group, Monforts, Mahlo, Osthoff, Stalam, Texpa, Zimmer, Corino and many more. We also showcased our group company products and solutions here - A.T.E. Envirotech, EcoAxis and the Flow Technology business units of A.T.E. were also present in this stall. Our principals like Truetzschler, Savio, MAG, Luwa, and Karl Mayer had their stalls, while we also had separate stalls for TeraSpin and Valence from the A.T.E. group.

We had a number of product launches by many of our principals. There was major interest at the Truetzschler stand, with displays of the new wider width card TC 15 along with the new concept of T-Move and Jumbo cans, the twin delivery draw-frame TD 9T, and the five module contamination remover TS T5. At the other end of the textile value chain, there was the launch of the high productivity Polo Placket by Juki. A number of innovative products and solutions were on display at all of stalls that generated avid interest amongst the visitors. You will find brief information on these highlights that were on display in the following pages.

A.T.E. is always looked upon as the source for the latest in technology and best practices in every field it operates in. We were delighted to have a large number of guests to our stalls that included industry captains, entrepreneurs, and senior executives from many of the leading textile mills, as well many senior government officials. We were pleased we had the opportunity to demonstrate and explain the latest offerings from the A.T.E. group and our principals. We finalised a number of orders for various products at the show and we also received a number of serious enquiries.

I am sure that the coming years will be exciting for the Indian and Bangladeshi textile industries with the projected growth in the world market size for apparels and made-ups. For A.T.E. it has been a long journey of partnership with the textile industry and we will continue to be in the forefront in providing the latest technology solutions and best services to help the textile industry to take advantage of every emerging opportunity.
