Together with its agent in India Global Group, the German company iNTERSPARE Textilmaschinen will present the Artos (Babcock Textilmaschinen) and Krantz product lines of its machinery portfolio at the KNIT-TECH trade fair in Tirupur which will take place from 10 to 13 February at Hi-Tech Tirupur Exhibition Centre. iNTERSPARE and Global Group will be giving a special presentation at their 72m2 booth B11/B12 addressing finishing companies active in the field of sophisticated knitted products.

Visitors at the booth will get latest information about how iNTERSPARE can help Indian textile companies taking the lead and producing highest quality with high productivity.

In addition visitors will learn more about the new Artos, Babcock and Krantz textile machines and in particular about the new version of the legendary Krantz Syncro shrink dryer. Since ITMA in Milan, orders from India have been coming in thick and fast, some of which have already been delivered; others are still in production at the plant in Reinbek.

At KNIT-TECH iNTERSPARE looks forward to a great number of expert discussions about the current challenges facing Indian knitting companies, since it is with knitted products that Artos and Krantz machines can really show off their technical advantages.
