Taiwan to showcase smart and sustainable textile machinery at ITMA ASIA + CITME Singapore 2025

The upcoming ITMA ASIA + CITME Singapore will take place from October 28 to 30 at the Singapore EXPO. Organized by the International Trade Administration (MOEA) and executed by TAITRA with support from TAMI, the event will feature 34 Taiwanese textile machinery companies under the theme “Weave Your Dreams with Taiwan Textile Machinery.”

Through press briefings, media meetups, demo shows, and guided tours, Taiwan will spotlight its strength in AI, smart manufacturing, and sustainable textile production.

Meeting Global Needs in Sustainability and Speed

Global apparel brands are under pressure to meet strict decarbonization targets while fast fashion demands high-volume and diverse production. Taiwan’s textile machinery makers, long-time partners of brands such as Adidas, Nike, and Lululemon, are addressing these challenges through integrated supply chains, steady R&D, and digital upgrades.

With support from Taiwan’s strong ICT industry, AI sensors, data analytics, and control systems are being adopted quickly, lowering defect rates, saving energy, and cutting carbon emissions. These improvements help manufacturers balance cost efficiency with environmental goals.

Six Companies Take the Spotlight on Opening Day

At the international press conference, six Taiwanese companies will present their latest solutions combining intelligence with sustainability:

• Pailung – AI-powered defect detection and digital production control for stable, high-volume knitting.
• ACME – Conveyor dyeing system that cuts water and energy use by over 65%.
• Logic Art – Modular, automated dyehouse system that increases capacity by up to 50%.
• Asia Kingdom – Digital protection system to reduce fabric damage.
• Copower Technology – Automated stock solution preparation for higher accuracy.
• KUANS – AI-based Smart Dyeing Analyzer for real-time monitoring and improved output.

These are not just single machines but factory-level systems designed to help Asian manufacturers scale while reducing their environmental footprint.

Quick Pitch & Demo Shows – Innovation on Display

During the exhibition, 11 Taiwanese companies will run short, interactive demo sessions across three themes:

AI-Driven Smart Manufacturing

• Pailung’s circular knitting machine designed for high-mix, high-volume output.
• Kauo Heng’s flat knitting machine producing tri-color jacquard collars in one pass, with auto-lubrication and AI error detection.
• Kyang Yhe’s smart needle loom for seatbelts and military webbing.
• Jiunn Long’s double jersey knitting machine with servo yarn feeding, cutting setup time by 80%.

Low-Carbon and Flexible Sampling

• CCI’s Evergreen II sampling loom creates varied woven samples with a single bobbin.
• DAH HEER’s compact raschel machine allows quick density adjustments for small-lot runs.

Sustainability and Smart Upgrades

• ACME’s conveyor dyeing reinforces major savings in energy and water.
• Asia Kingdom uses digital torque control to protect premium fabrics.
• KUANS links AI to cloud platforms to reduce human error.
• JINTEX and Logic Art partner to provide a green value chain from bio-based auxiliaries to automated finishing systems.

A Buyer’s Guide for Global Collaboration

To strengthen industry connections, TAITRA is releasing the Taiwan Smart Textile Machinery Buyer’s Guide. This directory will help apparel brands and manufacturers find suppliers across knitting, weaving, dyeing, finishing, specialty chemicals, and automation.

Toward Smarter, Greener Manufacturing

Taiwan’s textile machinery industry continues to position itself as a reliable partner for global factories looking to improve efficiency while meeting ESG requirements. ITMA ASIA + CITME Singapore 2025 will provide a platform for buyers to experience these solutions firsthand and explore new partnerships with Taiwanese innovators.
