The workshop dedicated to Italian textile technologies started in  Ulaanbaatar on 21 and will continue to 23 June 2026. Focused on the most advanced innovative solutions for the textile industry, the initiative will bring together 13 Italian textile machinery manufacturers, confirming the growing interest in strengthening industrial cooperation between the two countries and highlighting Mongolia’s strategic importance for Italian textile machinery producers.

The Italian textile machinery industry is internationally recognized as a leading benchmark for technology, innovation, and quality. Italian companies in the sector stand out for their ability to provide flexible, versatile, and customized solutions, capable of responding rapidly to customer needs and creating high value-added market niches. During the workshop, particular emphasis will be placed on supporting the Mongolian textile industry in its transition toward efficient, premium-quality production. Italian technology can make a tangible contribution to the country’s industrial modernization and sustainability efforts.

The technological partnership between Italy and Mongolia is rooted in Italy’s excellence in cashmere and wool processing, two raw materials of strategic importance to the Mongolian economy. According to data compiled by ACIMIT, the Mongolian market has demonstrated significant dynamism in recent years, with the overall trend pointing to a steady expansion of trade cooperation between the two countries. The technologies most in demand among Mongolian operators are primarily those related to spinning, which accounts for 35% of total Italian exports to the country, followed by laundry machinery (21%), accessories (19%), finishing equipment (14%), and weaving machinery (11%).

“Mongolia represents a highly promising market for our industry,” said Marco Salvadè, President of ACIMIT. “The participation of Italian companies in the Ulaanbaatar workshop demonstrates a strong commitment to consolidating a long-term technological partnership. Our highly specialized and flexible technologies are ready to support local operators in upgrading their production processes and increasing the added value of their textile exports. The workshop in Mongolia is also part of a broader program of initiatives aimed at promoting the Italian presence at ITMA Hannover 2027, the world’s leading exhibition for textile and garment technologies, where Italian companies will once again showcase the very best of textile machinery innovation.”---make it past tense.

The initiative, promoted by the Italian Trade Agency and ACIMIT, with the valuable support of the Embassy of Italy in Mongolia, featured the participation of the following Italian companies: Biancalani, Bianco, Color Service, Cormatex, Fadis, Lawer, Mesdan, Cosmatex, Pinter Caipo Italia, Proxima, Stalam, Tecnomeccanica Biellese, Ugolini.

ACIMIT (Association of Italian Textile Machinery Manufacturers) was founded in 1945 with the primary objective of promoting the Italian textile machinery industry by supporting its activities both in Italy and abroad. A non-profit organization, it currently brings together approximately 200 textile machinery manufacturers representing 85% of the sector's turnover in Italy, for a total value of about 2.1 billion euros, of which approximately 86% is exported to 130 countries worldwide.

The technologies produced are divided into various reference categories: spinning, weaving, knitting, finishing, and other machinery. Creativity, sustainable technology, reliability, and quality are the characteristics that have made Italian textile machinery a world leader.
