The hub of smart and sustainable transformation in yarn technologies: ITM 2026

With global fiber production projected to reach 169 million tons by 2030, yarn manufacturing is becoming one of the most strategic fields within the textile machinery industry. Located in Halls 6, 7, and 10, the Yarn Hall at ITM 2026 is set to bring together industry professionals with innovative solutions developed around automation, energy efficiency, digitalization, and circular production.


Taking place from 9–13 June 2026 at the Istanbul Tüyap Fair and Congress Center, ITM 2026 will bring together leading manufacturers of yarn technologies under one roof. Located in Halls 6, 7, and 10, the Yarn Hall will serve as a strong showcase for exhibitors with its advanced spinning technologies, smart manufacturing systems, and sustainable solutions, while offering visitors a comprehensive guide to technology and investment opportunities. Global manufacturers, technology developers, and decision-makers will have the opportunity to experience firsthand the innovations shaping the future of yarn production at the ITM 2026 Yarn Hall.

Advanced spinning technologies for sustainable textile production

Spinning processes, which form the backbone of textile manufacturing, are being redefined with advanced technological solutions at the ITM 2026 Yarn Hall. While advanced extrusion systems for filament production form the basis of high-performance and consistent yarn manufacturing, smart spinning technologies that enable automation and energy efficiency define the hall’s overall vision. Digitized production infrastructures make processes more transparent, controlled, and sustainable, setting a new standard in yarn production.

Smart spinning lines with fully automated systems

Fully automated winding systems integrated into ring and rotor spinning lines simplify workflows, reduce operator dependency, and ensure consistent quality. Thanks to connected production lines, all processes from bale handling to packaging can be managed within a single, seamless flow. These intelligent systems, which enable process optimization, support productivity gains while enhancing the competitiveness of manufacturing facilities.

Modular and energy-efficient spinning solutions

Modular spinning systems optimize material flow through integrated logistics structures while significantly reducing energy consumption. With flexible configuration options, manufacturers gain major advantages in capacity planning, investment costs, and production scalability. These next-generation production concepts pave the way for agile facilities capable of rapidly adapting to changing market conditions.

New standards with circular production and recycled fibers

One of the key themes of the ITM 2026 Yarn Hall will be the production of high-quality yarns from recycled fibers. Circular spinning systems developed in line with mechanical recycling processes enable waste materials to be reintegrated into production. By increasing resource efficiency and reducing environmental impact, these solutions make a strong contribution to the industrial transformation of sustainable textile manufacturing.

High performance and low cost in rotor spinning

High-efficiency rotor spinning technologies, particularly developed for short and recycled fibers, raise the performance benchmark in yarn production. Thanks to advanced piecing systems, self-cleaning yarn guides, and simultaneous multiple start capabilities, maintenance times and costs are reduced while production continuity is strengthened.

A strategic meeting point for yarn manufacturers

For yarn manufacturers aiming to keep pace with transformation in spinning technologies, shape their investment decisions, and gain a competitive edge in global competition, ITM 2026 will serve as a strong and strategic platform. The ITM 2026 Yarn Hall will offer manufacturers not only the opportunity to see the latest machinery, but also to examine sustainable production models on site, compare different spinning technologies, and develop more informed, future-oriented investment plans. Direct engagement with global technology suppliers, new business partnerships, and the opportunity to closely observe market trends will make ITM 2026 an indispensable meeting point for decision-makers in the yarn industry.
