Composed by a DOSORAMA WSL dispensing machine + DYRAMA dyeing modules for yarn bobbins of different sizes, the DOS&DYE® 6000 is capable of continuous operation, 24 hours a day 7 days a week, even in the absence of assigned personnel, until the material still to be dyed in the parking lot is exhausted. It is possible to perform one dyeing after another proceeding without interruption, finish the set dyeing schedules, and go all the way to FINAL quality control.

There is no "sampling" of color shade verification because the DOS&DYE® 6000 can guarantee a "RIGHT FIRST TIME" of 96%-98%, this peculiarity enables rapid production for fast deliveries just in time with excellent technical quality.

Visitors can discover all the solutions at ACIMIT booth - Hall 6 Stand C50 during ITMA ASIA in Shanghai from 14 to 18 October 2024.

Beyond the wardrobe – innovative cotton takes the spotlight

Cotton can do more – a lot more. Cutting-edge textiles and high-tech products made from 100% cotton prove just how powerfully performance and sustainability can come together. That very surge of innovation is front and centre at the 38th Bremen Cotton Conference, taking place March 25–27, 2026, at Bremen’s Parliament on the historic market square – culminating in a bold and dedicated closing session on Friday. In the spotlight: performance upgrades for pure cotton, smart strategies for circular textile waste solutions, and pioneering concepts for demanding technical applications. From natural fibre–reinforced composites to highly effective flame-retardant solutions, cotton steps out of the closet and shows the future potential woven into every fibre.

Keeping print inclusive: Empowering women in the print industry

Across all industries, cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace is increasingly recognised as valuable and essential to long-term success. However, despite the print industry’s significant advancements in technology and innovation, visible representation of women remains limited. As the sector grapples with low recruitment, it’s important to challenge outdated perceptions. Creating real change, however, requires collective effort - no single company can do it alone.
