Another important feature is the launch of Texpcess Pavilion. Texpocess as a brand has been a leading trade fair for international garment manufacturing and textile processing industry.***With India’s contribution in the technical textile industry expected to grow at 12 per cent CAGR and reach 1,16,217 crore by 2017-18, the need for new technologies in garment manufacturing machinery is on a rise.
