Karl Mayer to exhibit complete solutions at Techtextil

"Composites are an important area in India. Until now, there has been no specific trade fair for this sector," said Hagen Lotzmann, sales manager for Karl Mayer Technische Textilien GmbH. The subsidiary of Karl Mayer produces innovative warp knitting machines with magazine weft insertion, as well as high-performance bi- and multiaxial warp knitting machines, and will be demonstrating at Techtextil India how the textiles produced on them can be used in innovative applications in the future.

"We will be exhibiting at Techtextil in India as a supplier of complete solutions," added Lotzmann.

There is a particularly high demand for warp-knitted geotextiles in India. These stable textiles are being used, for reinforcing slopes in road building projects, for stabilising waterway banks in coastal engineering projects, and for covering landfill sites. Other lucrative applications include printed advertising media and lorry tarpaulins.

"Multiaxial textiles produced from glass on multiaxial warp knitting machines are mainly being used to produce the rotor blades. A number of promising projects are already running on this particular application in India," said Lotzmann. (PC)
