Techtextil 2013 is just around the corner and as with all major shows we'll undoubtedly see all the latest in fibre, fabric and product development from all the big corporations.They'll have their huge stands with comfy chairs, nice ladies serving drinks and food and lots of sales rep's who may never have met you but are your best friends, and although it's good to see whats on offer I'll be looking for the real niche producer tucked away in some dark corner away from the main thoroughfare who's got something quite unique.
One such company I've already booked a meeting with is Elasol. This company has developed a new unique shading system for greenhouses called OMBRA-DLS that incorporates an elasticated fabric that controls the light, heat and humidity inside the greenhouse automatically purely by stretching or relaxing the fabric. I'll update you on other gems that I find after the show.
My diary is now full of appointments for the Wednesday, not sure how I'll get around to see some of the important exhibitors, maybe I should have booked two days??
