Autotex, founded back in 1975 and a market leader in the production of industrial machines for boarding and packaging for the hosiery industry, will show its latest technologies and products at the forthcoming FIMAST exhibition in Brescia.

FIMAST, the international tradeshow dedicated to the entire hosiery industry is a biennial B2B event now in its fifth edition. It will be held in the Brixia Forum Expo Center in Brescia, Italy.

Unique to the sector, FIMAST offers the latest technologies and machinery for the socks, hosiery and seamless sector. Thanks to the presence of large hosiery factories in the region, it opens up scenarios for the major yarn producers in the key districts of this sector in Italy - in Brescia, the headquarters of the main machinery district for this type of article, and in Mantua for the finished product.

Autotex is a market leader in the production of industrial machines for boarding and packaging for the hosiery industry. The company, originally founded in the UK, moved its headquarters to Italy in 2000, giving life to Autotex Italy, based in Borgosatollo. Today, it is proud of exporting its Made in Italy packaging machines which are sold all over the world.

Monica and Andrea Molinari, the latest generation at Autotex, continue their business by focusing on innovation, which has always been a cornerstone and objective of the Brescia –based company.

“Autotex’ machines, which stand out on the market for the degree of specialization they reach, are now equipped with everything that the smart generation can require such as the card for remote control, the automatic change of parameters for the article change, the cameras for the quality control and much more,” the company says.

Customization is the main strength of the company, which is always careful to study ad hoc solutions to best meet the needs of the individual customer, adapting the machines to the user and not vice versa.
