R Lalitha said: “The Techtextil India 2025 is an expo that weaves together leading innovators, policymakers and companies to frame appropriate policies for the growing industry. I believe that man-made fibres is the sunrise sector in the future. Concepts like sustainability and circularity will give rise to better technology that could help speed up research and development in India.”

The show weaves together innovation, collaboration and opportunity to create a more resilient, future-ready industry.”
