Covering an area of 6,000 square metres, HANOITEX 2017 introduced equipment and materials for the textile and garment industry, such as equipment for spinning, weaving and dyeing, automated sewing lien, fabrics, yarn, design software and technological solutions.
Addressing the opening ceremony, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Cao Quoc Hung said the expo provides an opportunity for Vietnamese textile-garment producers to access the latest technologies of the world, thus raising locally made proportion and enhancing the added value of products.
In order to implement its sustainable strategy by 2020, the sector has invested more in high-quality and environmentally friendly technologies, said General Director of the Vietnam National Textile Garment Group (Vinatex) Le Tien Truong.
The event is organised by the CP Exhibition Hong Kong, VCCI Expo, and Vinatex, under the patronage of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Viet Nam Textile and Apparel Association.
The event will last until November 3.
