The countdown has begun for ITM 2026 International Textile Machinery Exhibition, one of the most prestigious organizations in the textile technologies sector. Bringing together leading textile machinery manufacturers, industry representatives, investors, and professional visitors from around the world in Istanbul, ITM 2026 will serve as a strategic business development platform for global investors.
ITM 2026, which boasts the title of the world’s second largest textile technology exhibition, is preparing to open its doors at the Tüyap Fair and Congress Center between June 9-13, 2026. The exhibition, which will be organized in collaboration with Tüyap Tüm Fuarcılık Yapım A.Ş. and Teknik Fuarcılık A.Ş. and in partnership with Textile Machinery and Accessories Industrialists Association (TEMSAD), will bring together over 1000 companies and company representatives from 55 countries under one roof.
Global Interest in ITM 2026 Increase Every Day
Industry professionals from many countries where textile investments are gaining momentum again have already added ITM 2026 to their agendas. Investors and official trade delegations from many countries, especially Syria, Egypt, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Vietnam, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Russia, are continuing their preparations to participate in the fair.
Visa and logistics problems experienced at exhibitions, especially in Europe, are directing global investors to more accessible, safer, and more comprehensive alternatives; while Istanbul’s strategic location makes ITM 2026 an unrivaled meeting point. Thanks to Türkiye’s visa facilitation for many countries, its strong transportation infrastructure, and its location connecting continents, visitors can easily reach Istanbul. Turkish Consulates and Commercial Attachés also strengthen the international visitor profile of ITM 2026 by providing support to professional visitors and trade delegations who want to participate in the fair with visa processes.
