Monforts To Spotlight High-Value Finishing At India ITME 2026
Monforts will highlight advanced finishing, coating and energy-efficient processing at India ITME 2026, as Indian textile manufacturers increasingly invest in higher-value fabrics. The German machinery specialist will exhibit at Hall 1, Stand A5, from December 4–9.
Its presentation will cover MONTEX stenters, THERMEX dyeing and curing systems, and the Eco Applicator, which applies finishing chemicals using minimum liquor quantities. By reducing the water requiring evaporation, the system can help lower water, chemical and energy consumption.
For technical textiles, Monforts will highlight its multifunctional MontexCoat, offering knife coating, magnet roller coating and rotary screen printing. Its coaTTex range focuses primarily on knife coating and now includes a special coating table for activewear applications.
“Productivity remains essential, but increasingly it has to be combined with lower operating costs, greater flexibility and the ability to manufacture more sophisticated products,” said Daniel Rütten, newly appointed Monforts Area Sales Manager for Asia, who succeeds Hans Wroblowski in overseeing India and the wider region.
Monforts has also installed a Baldwin TexCoat G4 digital spray unit at its Advanced Technology Center in Germany through cooperation with BW Converting, enabling trials with advanced sustainable finishing chemistries from Archroma.
Together with Indian partner A.T.E. Enterprises, the company will also focus on modernising installed machinery through upgrades to controls, drives and monitoring systems.
“The opportunity for Indian manufacturers is not simply to produce more fabric, but to extract greater value from every metre produced,” Rütten said.
