Mesdan to showcase advanced spinning solutions at ITMA Asia + CITME
Also in 2025, Mesdan will be exhibiting at the most important textile machinery exhibition in Asia: ITMA Asia + CITME 2025, which will be held in Singapore, 28 to 31 October 2025.
In 2025, Mesdan will exhibit at ITMA Asia + CITME in Singapore, October 28–31, sharing Vandewiele’s 286 meter square booth (Hall 4, A302).
The company will showcase four key lab instruments—Contest-S, Autofil, Nati Advanced, and Burstmatic 2—plus the Savio Proxima winder with upgraded splicers, highlighting advanced testing and spinning solutions for cotton, yarn, and fabrics.
As part of the spinning solutions of Vandewiele, Mesdan will be sharing their space within the 286 m2 booth of the group, located in Hall 4, booth n° A302.
Mesdan will be exhibiting 4 of their most important lab equipment:
- Contest-S – fully automatic high volume testing equipment designed to detect, measure, classify and grade cotton stickiness (honeydew/sugar content); unique equipment providing cotton stickiness risk probability (stickiness in practice), on the basis of its grade enabling spinners to anticipate proper actions (how to process C blend different cotton bales); ensures fast testing and very repeatable and consistent results; precious tool for ginning, spinning mills, cotton traders, textile institutes, RCD labs and other cotton grading, arbitration and classing institutes; testing method for stickiness grading recognised by ITMF – ICCTM.
- Autofil – fully automatic yarn tensile strength tester, with integrated cop changing system with 24 positions, also suitable for hanks/LEA (CLSP) and light fabrics in the semi- automatic mode. Suitable for testing a wide variety of yarns: spun, continuous filaments, POY, spandex, sewing threads, etc. thanks to its vast assortment of various clamps, jaws and other testing tools. Special automatic clamps are available for high tenacity yarns (like sewing threads, industrial and carpet yarns) available. Software with integrated and interactive pre-loaded database of testing methods, complying to the major testing methods (ISO, ASTM, JIS, BS, IWS, NEXT, MCS, etc.).
- Nati Advanced – the latest version of the famous neps and trash indicator, designed for the integration with the “Contest-F2” cotton fibre testing equipment, and for the obtaining of the seed coats neps and trash indication as well; the stand-alone setting allows the testing of both the cotton and the synthetic fibres. It is an important tool to improve and predict yarn quality, increase efficiency of carding and combing operations, and reduce maintenance costs and overheads.
- Burstmatic 2 – pneumatic bursting strength tester to determine the bursting resistance and the dynamic fatigue of woven and knitted fabrics as well as technical textiles, non- wovens, leather (artificial and natural), and of other non-textile applications (like paper, plastic, packagings, medical, etc.). It measures the required pressure necessary to burst or tear a specimen, as well as the specimen distension “height” prior to bursting. The sample distension “height” is measured by means of laser technology.
Then, on the exhibited Savio Proxima winder, the latest splicers versions will be installed, featuring technological upgrades to improve the durability of some mechanical parts subjected to major stress, and to guarantee the utmost consistency in splice quality.

The package establishes a modern framework for both sides, enabling frictionless access to a market of 460 million consumers in key sectors, delivering economic benefits to both parties.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Swiss President Guy Parmelin yesterday signed a broad package of agreements aimed at deepening and expanding EU-Switzerland ties.
By aligning standards and rules in closely integrated areas, it will provide legal certainty, simplify trade in goods like medical devices and food products, and ease cross-border supply for businesses on both sides.
By aligning standards and rules in closely integrated areas, it will provide legal certainty, simplify trade in goods like medical devices and food products, and ease cross-border supply for businesses on both sides of the border.
Additionally, it will ensure more consistent rules for individuals who live, work or study across the EU-Swiss border. Switzerland will contribute to the development of legislation in the areas covered by the package and will have the opportunity to influence these rules as they are being designed.
“By modernising and deepening our ties across key sectors, from trade and transport to health and energy—we are strengthening legal certainty, fostering innovation and creating new opportunities for our citizens and businesses,” von der Leyen said in a release from the Commission.
The package includes updates to four already existing agreements, which already give Switzerland access to the EU internal market, regarding air transport, land transport, the free movement of persons and mutual recognition of conformity assessment.
New agreements on food safety, electricity, health and Switzerland’s participation in the EU Agency for the Space Programme were signed. A new agreement introduced a permanent and fair financial contribution by Switzerland to economic and social cohesion within the EU.
Apart from a protocol on parliamentary cooperation, the package includes also a joint declaration on the establishment of a high-level dialogue on the broad bilateral package.
