TXCA & CLE 2020 opens on 14 October to stimulate business in the textile care industry

12 ottobre 2020

The 2020 edition of Texcare Asia and China Laundry Expo (TXCA & CLE), the dedicated trade fair for textile laundry, leather care, cleaning technology and equipment organised by the China Laundry Association, the China Light Industry Machinery Association, Messe Frankfurt (Shanghai) Co Ltd and Unifair Exhibition Service Co Ltd, will take place between 14 – 16 October 2020 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre. Following a challenging period, the fair will stimulate market recovery, create new business opportunities and boost market confidence through its platform and activities.

The global pandemic has brought both unprecedented challenges and business opportunities to the textile care industry in China and the entire Asian region. Business in the region is severely impacted as a consequence of the weakening catering, tourism and hotel sectors. At the same time, the pandemic and people’s rising awareness of hygiene have bumped up the demand for intelligent laundry processes as well as effective sanitation of textiles used in medical and health care facilities. During its three day run, TXCA & CLE will provide an effective business platform for industry professionals to grasp these new opportunities and help the industry recover.

Over 120 exhibitors will demonstrate their latest products and technologies across 10,000 sqm of hall space at this year’s edition, highlighting medical laundry and sanitization solutions, as well as automation, digital technologies and intelligent laundry systems. Some of the participating brands include: Beiteli, BÖWE, Chuandao, COZY SLIPPER, Dameisi, Guangtai, Hanhong, HAONR, HOOP, Hua Hai Zhi Bang, Hydro, Inchun, Kannegiesser, Laundry, Laundrymate, Miura, PONO, SEA-LION, Shuangfeng, SPOTAG, Sunshine, TEDA, Tongfei, Topoly, Unisec, Vega, Wansan, Waterminister, WEISHI, and YIJIE.
