Textile and clothing industry experts unanimously agree that automating the majority of factory processes is essential. Without it, business development and profitability will be unattainable. For this reason, Targi Kielce, one of Poland’s leading B2B event organisers, has created a platform for showcasing AI-driven solutions for textile production and the latest textile machinery.

– Targi Kielce is helping to shape the new reality of the textile industry in Poland. (…) My TexStyle exhibitors, along with representatives from both Polish and international textile sectors and academic institutions, will present entirely new technological solutions. This is an excellent opportunity for visitors to explore innovative devices and navigate the evolving technological landscape, – says Henryk Marucha, owner of Victory Sportswear Company.

Poland and Central & Eastern Europe – A Market Hungry for Innovation

According to data from the Polish Textile Industry Association, Poland’s textile sector currently employs 194,000 people, making it one of the country’s largest industries and the third most promising market in Europe. However, the sector faces increasing challenges.

– We must closely monitor new trends and regulations because we aim to reach a significantly higher technological and quality level. Our industry faces a major challenge – transitioning from manual to machine-based production. We must automate key processes – says Ireneusz Chabrowski, President of the Polish Textile Industry Association.
