Epson, Italian creativity combined with Japanese technology at ITMA

The world's largest international textile and apparel technology trade show, ITMA highlights innovations that will help textile and apparel manufacturers transform and grow their business.
And without giving too much away about the innovation and surprises that will see Epson protagonist of this fundamental change, visitors to the event scheduled for the coming weeks can expect to discover a blend that combines the excellence of Made-in-Italy creative style and the rigour of the most advanced Japanese technology.

Creativity and innovation: a bridge to new goals

And it is exactly this union of two different (yet ideologically close) cultures that will be the main focus of Epson's participation in their innovative exhibition stand, featuring the element of the bridge that accompanies and unites Italian creativity with Japanese technology, bringing any stylistic research and design project within reach and making it achievable.
Because whilst industrial printing on fabric is, on the one hand, a matter of technology, research and craftsmanship, aspects in which Epson solutions, including Monna Lisa, have always excelled, on the other hand, it calls for continuous research, tailor-made solutions, timely and effective interventions, to enable companies to become leaders in their sector.

A bridge between companies who are partners in excellence

Creating synergies and establishing creative ecosystems are routine strategies for Epson, which has a long tradition of working to achieve ever-higher levels of competence and quality. It was with this in mind that we took the decision to acquire companies such as F.lli Robustelli (who has designed and manufactured photoengraving and textile printing machines and systems since the 1950s and oversaw the engineering of the Monna Lisa series) and For.Tex (for over 30 years one of the main international suppliers of thickeners, dyes and specific products for printing, they contributed to the development of Genesta inks); these became part of the Epson Group and then merged into the company called Epson Como Printing Technologies, designed to lead the sector with competence and responsibility.

Epson Como Printing Technologies is the epitome of excellence, from design to production. It is an ideal blend of innovation and creativity, ready to lead us towards the new digitization models of industrial textile processes.
