Aydın Tekstil: ISPA fair 

performed positive for 

our exports 

Berhan Kaya, Marketing Manager of Aydın Tekstil, said that the 

ISPA Expo fair met their expectations. 

Berhan Kaya, who used 

the expression “we want 

to follow the trends and 

technological developments on 

the spot” while explaining their 

expectations from the ISPA exhibition 

in his interview before the 

exhibition, stated that the exhibition 

functioned as a milestone 

on the way to short, medium and 

long term targets. Stating that 

they took part in a very important 

fair for the American mattress 

industry as well as for the companies 

and countries that want 

to export to this continent and 

make investments here, Kaya 

said that Turkish companies were 

the most prominent companies in 

the fair and Aydın Tekstil was the 

leader among these companies. 

Stating that the fair was productive 

for them and that their 

expectations were met, Kaya 

gave the following statements; 


“ISPA fair is an organisation that 

appeals to the entire American 

continent and even hosts many 

visitors from outside the continent. 

This year, as in previous 

years, it was a fair with a very 

high efficiency scale and the fair 

maintained its stability. There 

were positive developments that 

will positively affect our export 

figures both in the fair area and 

in the meetings we held after 

the fair. These developments will 

enable us to increase our exports 

and investments to America. 

With the studies we will carry 

out in the light of these developments, 

we aim to highlight the 

Aydın Textile brand with quality 

and innovative products in the 

American and world market in 

the medium and long term.”

BekaertDeslee attracts great 

interest from the industry for its 

CASA collection at ISPA 2024 

WAREGEM – BekaertDeslee the world’s leading specialist in 

mattress textiles and sleep solutions concluded its successful 

participation at the International Sleep Products Association (ISPA) 

EXPO 2024, held from in Columbus, Ohio, 12-14 March 2024. 

ISPA EXPO 2024 event served 

as a platform for BekaertDeslee 

to showcase its latest 

innovations and sustainable 

solutions, garnering significant interest 

and acclaim from industry 

professionals and attendees. 

The highlight of BekaertDeslee’s 

showcase was the unveiling of its 

latest design collection, CASA, 

which received widespread 

acclaim for its fusion of style, 

functionality, and sustainability. 

The CASA collection captivated 

visitors with its innovative approach 

to the upcoming trends in 

interior design, transforming living 

spaces, emphasizing self-care, 

self-reliance, and self-expression 

while integrating environmentally 

friendly materials and responsible 

manufacturing practices. 

“We are thrilled by the positive 

response to our CASA collection 

at ISPA EXPO 2024,” said Rafael 

Rodriguez, President of Bekaert- 

Deslee North America. “The 

collection represents our commitment 

to pushing the boundaries 

of design and innovation while 

prioritizing sustainability and consumer 

well-being.” 

In addition to the CASA collection, 

BekaertDeslee’s revolutionary 

cooling technology, COMBO- 

COOL, generated significant 

interest among attendees. With 

its dual-action cooling mechanism 

and over 50% biobased 

content, COMBOCOOL offers 

long-lasting comfort and sustainability, 

setting a new standard in 

sleep technology. 

“Our COMBOCOOL technology 

received tremendous attention 

at ISPA EXPO 2024,” noted 

Rodriguez. “Its ability to provide 

continuous and active cooling, 


coupled with its sustainable 

formulation, resonated strongly 

with attendees seeking innovative 

solutions for a better sleep 

experience.” 

Furthermore, the success of 

the stretch woven construction 

was notable during the fair. This 

innovative construction, crucial to 

our strategy of advancing jacquard 

techniques and rescuing 

the woven heritage, allows for 

enhanced stretching, ensuring 

intricate detailing and exceptional 

comfort for a restful sleep experience. 

Visitors were impressed by 

the combination of sophistication 

and convenience offered by the 

stretch woven fabrics, which 

boast luxurious appearances and 

soft textures while maintaining 

wrinkle-free and easy-to-handle 

properties. 

BekaertDeslee’s commitment 

to sustainability was a recurring 

theme throughout the fair, with 

its sustainability journey drawing 

considerable interest from visitors. 

The company’s dedication 

to offering products that meet 

current needs while taking care 

of the environment for future generations 

underscores its position 

as a leader in responsible manufacturing 

practices. 

“We are proud to have shared 

our vision for the future of sleep 

and sustainability at ISPA EXPO 

2024,” said Rhiannon Burch 

Hallam, Senior Vice President of 

Sales North America at Bekaert- 

Deslee. “The event provided an 

invaluable opportunity to engage 

with industry professionals 

and demonstrate our ongoing 

commitment to innovation and 

sustainability.”

Boyçelik: We became one 

of the main actors of ISPA 

Expo 2024 

Feridun Tosun, Boyçelik Export Officer, said that they had been 

very productive at ISPA Expo and they were one of the most 

prominent companies of the fair. 

Feridun Tosun stated that 

they are one of the most 

well-known brands in the 

USA in the field of mattress 

springs thanks to the commercial 

relations they have established 

in the ISPA Expo fairs held so far 

and that they want to position 

themselves at the top by continuing 

this rise and emphasized that 

Boyçelik brand value was one of 

the most prominent values at the 

fair. Feridun Tosun stated that 

it is extremely proud for them to 

have such a great impact at the 

world’s largest bedding materials 

fair and emphasized their determination 

and stability to maintain 

this success. 

Feridun Tosun, Boyçelik Export 

Officer, made the following statements 

in his statement; “In the 


interview we had with you before 

the fair, we had mentioned how 

important the American market is 

in the light of statistical data. As 

Boyçelik, we have been one of 

the active players of this market 

for a long time. For a country like 

us, which faces west in terms 

of trade, the American market 

harbors great opportunities. As 

Boyçelik, we have been participating 

in ISPA Expo fairs for 

many years and exhibiting our 

brand value in these fairs in order 

to utilize these opportunities. In 

this year’s exhibition, we showed 

our colleagues operating in the 

American market that we, as 

Boyçelik, are one of the biggest 

actors of the Turkish mattress 

sub-industry. We knew that we 

would get a lot of efficiency from 

the exhibition and we did our 

work in this direction and we 

were not wrong in our predictions. 

We took care to host our 

visitors in the best way and we 

demonstrated the quality of our 

products in this exhibition as 

before. In the medium and long 

term, we aim to be the most 

important player in the American 

market in our field and we continue 

our efforts towards this goal.”

Boyteks for good mornings 

We talked about the International Sleep Products Association 

(ISPA) Fair and the future expectations from the American Market 

with Mr. Harun Gürkan YİĞİT, Regional Sales Manager of Boyteks 

Tekstil, which continues to produce innovative, technological, 

natural and environmentally friendly products with the motto 

“good mornings in more than 100 countries”. 

Noting that they are excitedly 

waiting for the revival 

of the United States’ (US) 

mattress ticking market, which 

has shrunk in parallel with the 

global mattress ticking industry 

in 2023, in line with their goal of 

increasing the awareness of the 

Boyteks brand in the American 

market, where they currently 

operate through wholesalers, Mr. 

Harun Gürkan YİĞİT said: “We 

think that the ISPA Fair created a 

sparking effect in achieving this 

goal.” 

Mr. Harun Gürkan YİĞİT continued 

his words as follows: “We 

hosted many visitors from North 

and South American countries 

with whom we had very fruitful 

commercial negotiations and 

discussed productive projects. 

We had a very positive fair for 

both us and our visitors.” Stating 

that the US market is the world’s 

largest mattress ticking market 

and one of the primary markets 

targeted by Boyteks, Mr. Yiğit 

said: “In order to increase our 

brand value in this market, we 

took our place in the ISPA Fair 

as an exihibitor and we are also 

attending the Las Vegas Market 

Show as a visitor. The US market 

is one of the three largest mattress 

ticking markets in the world 

in terms of quantity and volume 

and has the capacity to inspire, 

guide and set trends for mattress 

ticking manufacturers in all other 

countries. Significant expenditures 

are made and studies are 

carried out within the scope of 

research and development (R&D) 

and product development (P&D) 

activities in the mattress ticking 

market of US, which is one of 

the leading countries in the world 

that licenses bedding brands. In 

this regard, as a manufacturer 

that has been serving the US 

market for 20 years, we attach 

importance to the fact that the 

mattress ticking we develop are 

visionary and support trend-setting 

mattress ticking manufacturers. 

In addition to our P&D 

activities, we attach importance 

to the on-site observations and 

determinations we make within 

the scope of our marketing 

activities, both as exhibitors and 

visitors at US fairs.” 

Mr. Harun Gürkan Yiğit said: “At 

ISPA EXPO 2024, our innovative 

products were exhibited along 

with natural products that are 

generally trending in the market. 

These two concepts have now 


ecome standard in mattress 

ticking, where sustainable and 

cool-feeling products have been 

touted as innovative products for 

years. Therefore, we plan to bring 

innovations that can accompany 

these products and be used in 

the same product. In this context, 

we introduced our naturally 

innovative and environmentally 

friendly products such as Synergy, 

Slimfit, OzoneTherapy, Hydrogel, 

Return, Rose, developed by 

our R&D department, as well as 

Interzum award-winning Nettle 

and Biogreen to our customers 

and visitors at ISPA.” 

Nettle 

Considering that nettle is a 

natural thermoregulator thanks 

to its unique structure and thus 

provides a more comfortable 

sleeping environment, the Nettle 

mattress ticking we produce to 

provide a more comfortable sleep 

has proven itself by receiving 

the international “Hight Product 

Quality” achievement award.

Profile 

BioGreen 

As Boyteks, we developed the 

BioGreen mattress ticking concept 

using bio-based raw materials 

in order to leave a livable 

world to future generations. 

BioGreen is an innovative mattress 

ticking concept consisting 

of natural products with herbal 

ingredients. 

Hydrogel 

We provide a better quality sleep 

environment with the cooling 

effect of Hydrogel, which we 

developed based on gel-containing 

products, considering that in 

addition to its cooling effect, it 

contributes to the body’s moisture 

balance. 

OzoneTherapy 

We developed OzoneTherapy 

mattress ticking to reduce the 

negative effects of free radicals 

and oxidative stress during 

sleep. The crystallized minerals 

in the structure of OzoneTherapy 

mattress ticking are activated by 

body temperature and release 

active ions into the medium. 

These ions reduce the effect of 

free radicals and help reduce 

oxidative stress, just like in the 

ozone therapy method. 

ReTURN 

As part of our approach to being 

more environmentally-friendly, we 

developed the ReTURN mattress 

ticking, which can be degraded 

faster in nature. ReTURN mattress 

ticking, which we developed 

by adding special enzymes 

to its structure and using polyester 

threads, contributes to 

reducing environmental pollution 

as it dissolves 90 times faster 

than normal ticking. 

Rose 

We developed the Rose mattress 

ticking, which contains rose 

protein, to help provide a health- 


ier skin. Rose mattress ticking 

revitalizes the skin and provides a 

healthier sleeping environment. 

Slimfit 

Irregular and excessive fat accumulated 

under the skin due 

to the increase in fat tissue in 

the body usually leads to skin 

surface disorders in the leg, 

abdomen and hip areas and, as a 

result, an unhealthy appearance. 

That’s why we developed Slimfit 

mattress ticking to prevent such 

skin disorders and give the skin a 

firmer and more beautiful appearance. 

Synergy 

We spend 70 percent of our daily 

energy to maintain the basal 

metabolic rate, which is the resting 

metabolic rate of our body. 

Contrary to popular belief, sleep 

is not just a process in which the 

body rests and is passive. The 

body continues to lose energy 

during rest and sleep. That’s why 

we developed Synergy mattress 

ticking to help us regain our lost 

energy throughout the day and 

prevent energy loss during sleep.

IKMIB Chairman Adil Pelister: 

“The Türkiye Green Industry Project 

will make a great contribution to the 

green transformation of our SMEs” 

Pelister noted: “I wish that 

the “Türkiye Green Industry 

Project”, which is implemented 

under the coordination 

of the Ministry of Industry and 

Technology and with the financial 

support of the World Bank 

through KOSGEB and TÜBİTAK, 

will be auspicious for our country, 

our business world and our 

sector. Within the scope of our 

country’s 2053 Net Zero Emission 

vision and our chemical sector’s 

2030 vision of sustainability, I 

find this project, which supports 

the activities to prepare for green 

transformation, very important 

and I wish our sector, which is 

mostly composed of SMEs, will 

be able to benefit from this valuable 

support. 

Minister Çavuşoğlu announced 

that they will support the efficient 

green transformation of industrialists, 

entrepreneurs and SMEs 

with the “Turkey Green Industry 

Project” and that the project, 

which has a budget of 450 million 

dollars, will be carried out under 

the coordination of the Ministry 

of Industry and Technology in 

cooperation with KOSGEB and 

TÜBİTAK. 

With the KOSGEB Green Industry 

Support Program that has 

entered into force, SMEs will be 

supported up to 14 million Turkish 

Liras for the installation of solar 

energy systems within their own 

structure; green transformation 

projects for energy, water and 

raw material efficiency, sustainable 

and climate-resilient waste 

recycling will be supported up to 

4 million Turkish Liras; companies 

engaged in R&D and innovation 

activities for green production, 

higher energy and resource 

efficiency and private sector-led 

collaborations will be provided 

with TÜBİTAK support. 

We see that the “Green Growth 

Technology Roadmap” focuses on 

6 sectors. Among the 6 sectors, it 

is pleasing to see that our chemicals, 

plastics and fertilizer sectors 

are prioritized and will be able to 

apply to the project. Since the 

chemicals sector is a strategic 

sector that provides input to 27 

other sectors, its prioritization and 

taking action for green transformation 

with these supports will 

positively affect all sectors. 

“Now is the time to take action 

for our future, for sustainable 

growth and a strong Türkiye” 

As IKMIB, we have identified sustainability 

as a focal point in line 

with our 2030 vision. In this context, 

we work on green transformation, 

circular economy and digital 

transformation. Transformation 

projects require high costs and 

capital. In this sense, it is of great 

importance that our companies 

are supported by our government. 

Now is the time to take action for 

our future, for sustainable growth 

and a strong Türkiye. 

We recommend that our companies 

apply for the projects 

called for under the Green Industry 

Project as Green Innovation 

Technology Mentoring Call, Green 

Transformation in Industry Call, 

R&D and Innovation Networks for 

Industry (SAYEM) Green Transformation 

Call and benefit from these 

supports. 

As the chemicals sector, the driving 

force of exports, which makes 

the greatest contribution to the 

development and economy of our 

country, we will continue to work 

with all our strength to achieve 

our goals and break new records 

in Türkiye’s second century.”

for the global market and taking 

important steps in this regard, Durak 

Tekstil Board Member and Marketing 

Director Yiğit Durak emphasised 

that they will focus on strengthening 

the brand perception at Texprocess 

2024. He disclosed; “Texprocess is 

an important platform for us as an 

exhibition attended or visited by the 

important players of the global market. 

In addition to our production and 

service strength, we will have the 

opportunity to show the industry professionals 

whom we will meet during 

the exhibition that we are a reliable 

partner and brand. At Texprocess 

2024, organised simultaneously 

with the technical textiles exhibition 

Techtextil in the same area, it will 

inspire our visitors to see how rich 

our colourful sewing and embroidery 

threads have a wide range of uses. 

Alongside textiles and apparel with 

standard sewing and embroidery, our 

threads are also used in the bedding 

industry, yacht and marine industry, 


automotive, footwear and occupational 

safety. We are continuing all 

our preparations without slowing 

down for participating in Texprocess 

once again with our wide and 

advanced product portfolio.” 

Pointing out that there is a revival in 

the textile and related industries in 

the European and American markets, 

Durak stated that these regions will 

need high quality materials without 

supply problems in the coming period. 

He explained that they are in the 

process of reorganisation for deeper 

and more comprehensive access to 

the market in North America, especially 

in Eastern and Central Europe, 

and continued his words as follows; 

“We have entered a period in which 

it is understood how important 

the supply 

chain between 

global and local 

markets 

is. For this 

reason, 

manufacturers 

want to 

obtain the 

best material 

under the best 

supply conditions. 

In this new 

process based on trust, as 

Durak Tekstil, we position ourselves 

as a reliable partner of manufacturers 

in every market we are involved 

in. We offer our products that meet 

their needs and demands in the best 

possible deadlines. Furthermore, our 

recycled and natural fibre threads, 

fulfilling consumers’ demand for 

more sustainable products, are also 

attracting great interest. We differentiate 

ourselves in the market with 

sustainable threads and special 

threads for technical applications. 

We understand and share the manufacturers’ 

vision for tomorrow.” 

In 2024, major part of the 

increase in turnover will come 

from exports 

Yiğit Durak underlined that Durak 

Tekstil’s growth in both local and 

global markets in recent years has 

been achieved by differentiating itself 

in technology, art and sustainability 

as well as organising production and 

sales processes within this framework. 

Indicating that they achieved 

continuous growth even during pandemic 

and crisis periods, he noted 

that this is linked to both market 

diversification and the expansion of 

the product range. 

He pointed out that they aim to 

increase their turnover by 30% in 

dollar terms in 2024, remarking 

that their exports to 77 countries 

will constitute the main part of this 

increase. Saying; “Our strategy to 

grow in foreign markets has become 

stronger and more comprehensive 

with the contribution of 

the Turquality support we 

have received,” Durak 

added that the effect 

of exports on the 

increase in turnover 

this year will be 80- 

90%. 

Visitors to Texprocess and Techtextil 

will have the opportunity to meet 

with Durak Tekstil’s comprehensive 

solutions at booth G42 in Hall 8.0, 

as well as the company’s experts to

The Comprehensive Guide To 

Mattress Packing For Storage 

And Transportation 

Packing a mattress for 

storage or transportation 

may initially seem challenging, 

but with the right tools 

and techniques, it’s a manageable 

task. In this all-inclusive 

guide, we’ll take you through the 

process, from selecting suitable 

packing materials to folding your 

mattress properly, whether you 

use a mattress folding machine, 

a mattress roll packing machine, 

or do it by hand. By following our 

instructions, you’ll become a pro 

at packing your mattress in no 

time! 

Introduction To Mattress 

Packing 

Packing a mattress in a box is 

the most practical way to safeguard 

it during storage or transport. 

This method shields the 


News 

mattress from potential damage 

due to dirt, dust, and external 

elements. You can pack various 

mattress types like foam, spring, 

latex, or hybrid mattresses, with 

the standard mattress box typically 

measuring around 80 inches 

in length, 80 inches in width, and 

10 inches in depth. 

To ensure the mattress’s safety 

and security during transit, 

you’ll need specific materials, 

including cardboard boxes to 

prevent dents and scratches, 

bubble wrap or plastic covers for 

added cushioning, packing tape 

for sealing, and labels for easy 

identification. 

Once you have all your materials 

ready, correctly folding your 

mattress is crucial. Begin with 

one end of the mattress facing 

up and grab both ends of the 

folded side. Bring them together 

horizontally to form an ‘X’ shape 

and fold them across each other 

until they are entirely flat. Secure 

them with tape before placing 

them in the box. Following these 

steps ensures your mattress is 

well-packed and protected for its 

journey. 

How To Fold A Mattress For 

Proper Packing 

Properly folding a mattress is 

essential to ensure safe storage 

and transportation. Choose an 

area with sufficient space, a flat, 

clean, and dry surface before 

starting the process. Begin by 

folding the mattress in thirds, 

taking care not to damage the 

springs or foam layers. 

Next, fold the mattress in half 

lengthwise, reducing its size to a 

quarter of the original. Tuck the 

top edge into the bottom crease 

and secure the bundle with 

ropes or straps to keep it tightly 

bound. Finally, wrap the package 

in plastic wrap or bubble wrap 

for added protection against 

dust and moisture. Label the box 

as “Fragile” for careful handling 

during transit. These steps guarantee 

your mattress will be adequately 

packed for safe storage 

or transportation. 

Tools Needed For Proper 

Mattress Packing 

The right tools make all the difference 

when packing a mattress. 

Traditional materials like cardboard 

boxes and bubble wrap 

are useful, but specialized tools 


News 

can save time and enhance protection. 

A mattress folding machine 

efficiently folds mattresses 

into compact, transportable boxes, 

while a mattress roll packing 

machine creates tight mattress 

rolls that save space and offer 

cushioning. For added protection, 

use foam sheets or pads 

to provide extra cushioning and 

insulation against dust mites and 

allergens. Additionally, straps, 

rope, and tape are essential for 

securing your rolled or folded 

mattress in the box for added 

security. Having these resources 

at your disposal guarantees the 

safe packing and transport of 

your mattress. 

Instructions For Using A 

Mattress Folding Machine 

Using a mattress folding machine 

simplifies the process and 

ensures your mattress is properly 

folded for storage or transport. 

Here are some key considerations 

and instructions: 

1. **Choose the Right Machine:** 

Check the machine’s specifications, 

including adjustable 

settings for speed, pressure, and 

cutting blade to accommodate 

different mattress thicknesses. 

Ensure it’s compatible with your 

power source, either electricity or 

compressed air. 

2. **Preparing the Mattress:** 

Place the mattress on a clean, 

debris-free surface within the 

machine’s conveyor area. Adjust 

machine settings according to 


News 

your mattress’s size and thickness. 

3. **Automatic Bagging and Sealing:** 

Cover the mattress with a 

layer of film and seal all four sides 

to prevent air leakage. Compress 

the mattress into a flat-pack., 

4. **Compress and Fold:** Fold 

the flat-packed mattress to 

reduce its size for easier storage 

and transport. 

5. **Completing Operations:** 

Press the start button and allow 

the machine to complete its cycle 

(typically about 30 seconds). Turn 

off the power before removing 

your folded mattress. 

Following these steps when 

using a mattress folding machine 

ensures safe and efficient mattress 

packing. 

Instructions For Using A 

Mattress Roll Packing Machine 

Using a mattress roll packing 

machine is an efficient method 

for packing mattresses that are 

too large for standard boxes. 

Here are instructions for using 

this machine: 

1. **Preparation:** Two individuals 

are required – one to feed 

the mattress into the machine 

and the other to operate it. Both 

should have experience with 

the machinery and follow safety 

measures. 

2. **Position the Mattress:** Start 

by placing the mattress facedown 

on a flat surface. Feed one 

end onto the machine’s feeder 

belt and ensure even pressure is 

applied to prevent uneven rolling. 

3. **Secure the Roll:** Once the 

desired layers are rolled, secure 

them tightly with packing tape at 

both ends to maintain the rolled 

shape. 

Using a mattress roll packing machine 

makes packing larger mattresses 

easier and more efficient, 

ensuring they remain protected 

during storage and transport. 

With this comprehensive guide, 

you’ll be well-equipped to pack 

your mattress safely, whether 

you opt for manual folding or use 

specialized packing machines.

fairs offered the markets the most 

important international marketplace 

for product innovations along the 

textile value chain at the right time: 

“With an overwhelming atmosphere 

and growth in size, exhibitors and 

visitors, Techtextil and Texprocess 

made it clear: textile innovation for 

a wide range of industries can only 

be found in this global width and 

strength here in Frankfurt. The textile

20 years of Techtextil: biggest 

edition sets new standards 

In its anniversary edition, Techtextil 

set a record in terms of size and 

underlined the dynamic growth and 

innovative strength of the textile 

industry.

the global market at 225.99 

billion dollars in 2023 and forecasts 

an increase to 346.67 billion 

dollars by 2030. Similar forecasts 

by Allied Market Research expect 

an increase to 331.8 billion dollars 

by 2032. Within the EU textile 

industry, technical textiles are the 

most dynamic drivers of demand in 

sectors such as medicine, agriculture, 

construction, outdoor clothing 

and automotive. 

Texprocess strengthens its 

pioneering role in digitalisation 

and automation 

At Texprocess, a vast array of 


cutting-edge machines, processes, 

and services for textile and 

apparel processing were exhibited, 

spanning from innovative AI 

technologies to design systems 

and visualization tools, along with 

highly efficient cutting and state-ofthe-art 

sewing machines. Texprocess 

presented pivotal solutions 

harnessing the latest technologies. 

“For the Texprocess exhibitors, 

this trade fair was more important 

than ever before. The entire 

textile processing industry is facing 

enormous challenges worldwide, 

such as changing trade conditions 

or labor shortages. Many new 

technological solutions to these 

challenges were on show at Texprocess. 

There are great new developments, 

especially in the areas 

of digitalization, automation and 

AI. Texprocess has thus focused 

on the future and highlighted many 

new opportunities”, says Elgar 

Straub, Managing Director, VDMA 

Textile Care, Fabrics and Leather 

Technologies.

Elektroteks: Fairs now mean 

prestige and brand value for us 

Osman Güler, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Elektroteks, 

one of the leading companies in the Turkish mattress components 

industry and the main supplier of mattress machinery to the global 

mattress industry, stated that they were pleased with the interest 

they received at ISPA Expo. 

Stating that they already 

have solution partner companies 

in the USA and Brazil 

and that they are no stranger 

to the American market, Osman 

Güler emphasised that they 

are the pioneers of the Turkish 

mattress components industry in 

terms of expanding to America. 

Stating that the ISPA Expo fairs 

organized in previous years have 

been of great benefit to them in 

terms of being effective in the 

American market, Güler said that 

they have also received efficient 

results from the ISPA Expo 2024 


fair. Stating that they hosted visitors 

from almost every country of 

the continent, Osman Güler said; 

“As you know, as Elektroteks, 

we have been working continuously 

developing, improving and 

always looking forward for about 

35 years. In this process, we 

have exported to 140 countries 

of the world and we still continue 

to do so. Of course, the countries 

in the American market are 

also among them. At ISPA Expo 

2024, we encountered intense 

interest from visitors from Brazil, 

Mexico, Canada, Argentina and 

Colombia, especially from the 

USA. As I said at the beginning, 

this is not a new situation. We 

have been serving the American 

market for years and the American 

mattress industry knows us 

closely. In fact, our purpose of 

participating in these fairs is not 

only to introduce ourselves to the 

markets, but also to protect our 

brand value and prestige that we 

have created so far in all markets 

and to build a greater prestige. 

But of course, if we evaluate the 

overall performance of the fair; it 

was a productive and intense fair. 

Especially our Turkish companies 

came to the forefront in this fair 

and as the majority, they created 

the impression of a Turkish fair in 

the USA.”

Mattregate: We obtained new 

opportunities at ISPA Expo 2024 

Tayyip Tanrıöven, CEO of Mattregate, stated that they had the 

experience of testing the current dynamics in the American 

market and the potential of the market at ISPA Expo 2024. 

Stating that they made 

preparations for the fair at 

least 3 months in advance 

together with the sales and 

marketing team and the company’s 

production engineers, 

Tayyip Tanrıöven assessed the 

performance of the fair; “The 

ISPA fair was very productive for 

our company to meet with our 

business partners and customers 

in America and South America in 

2024, to meet our potential customers 

and to present our latest 

products and production capabilities 

to our visitors. It also helped 

us to determine our 2025 targets 

in that region and shed light on 

our future targets.” Tanrıöven, 

who evaluated that the fair was 

directly separated from both the 

European and Turkish fairs in 

terms of visitor portfolio and potential 

as it hosted the customer 

population that can make purchases 

from both European and 

Turkish fairs, said: “As Mattre- 


gate, it was a great opportunity 

and experience for us to test the 

current dynamics and potential of 

the market, and it is our greatest 

wish that our cooperation in the 

region, which is already one of 

our main markets, will continue 

to increase and contribute to the 

exports of both our company and 

our country.” 

Emphasising that evaluating 

customer feedback and the latest 

trends in the industry during the 

exhibition process will help to further 

strengthen product development 

and marketing strategies, 

Tanrıöven said; “This experience 

can provide a solid foundation 

for future growth and success 

by enabling our company to 

maintain its competitive position 

and continuously innovate. As 

a result, the ISPA exhibition has 

contributed greatly to increasing 

our company’s influence in the 

international arena by enabling 

us to both strengthen our existing 

business relationships and 

discover new opportunities. With 

the experience we have gained 

for future exhibitions, we will 

move forward by further strengthening 

our strategic plans.”

ISPA Expo Trends: 

Sustainability & Innovation 

Take Center Stage 

The slogan for Columbus, Ohio, could just as easily be said for 

ISPA EXPO 2024, which attracted thousands to experience all the 

bedding industry has to offer. 

Sunny weather and 

above-average temperatures 

welcomed thousands 

of mattress producers, suppliers 

and industry leaders from around 

the globe to downtown Columbus, 

Ohio, March 12-14 for ISPA 

EXPO 2024, the world’s largest 

bedding components show. 

“For us, the fair was extremely 

positive and super exciting, 

always busy and full of visits and 

important meetings,” said Andrea 

Lazzaroni, executive vice president 

and chief operating officer 

of CT Nassau, based in Mebane, 

North Carolina. “We are thrilled to 

have attracted all the players in 

our industry to our company.” 

Silvia Enriquez, co-owner of 

Enriquez Materials & Quilting Inc., 

based in Commerce, California, 

echoed his sentiments: “This 

show is helpful to us so we can 

see all our international customers. 

We can show them everything 

we have in one spot.” 

The 2024 exhibition boasts the 

superlative of being the largest 

ISPA EXPO in terms of square 

footage (164,300 square feet), 

and it attracted 249 exhibitors to 


the Greater Columbus Convention 

Center. 

Of the attendees, 30% were 

from outside the United States. 

Kayseri, Turkey-based Boyteks 

reported that in one day, the 

company had visitors from more 

than 50 different countries. 

Trends in the industry were easy 

to spot. Exhibitors focused on 

cost savings, while at the same 

time making more eco-friendly 

choices. 

A number of springs makers 

introduced 10-inch coils or coilon-coil 

constructions, with an 

eye toward reducing the amount 

of foam required to create a 

mattress. Some introduced 

cotton-encased coils for a more 

natural composition while others 

wrapped springs in recycled 

nonwoven fabric. 

Adhesives makers, listening to 

industry demands for more sustainable 

adhesives, touted new 

bio-based formulations, which 

several producers said were cost 

effective, too. Many suppliers 

also brought polypropylene adhesives 

to make recycling pocketed 

coils easier. This type of glue, 

when applied to polypropylene 

fabric, does not need to be 

removed in order to recycle the 

nonwoven. One company even 

offered an adhesive whose ingredients 

included material made 

from recycled polypropylene fiber 

from mattresses. 

In the world of foams, manufacturers 

were interested in making 

foams taller — and softer. Plus, 

infusions of copper and graphite 

were still going strong. One 

exhibitor showcased lighter 

foam formulations to reduce the 

amount of fuel needed to ship 

the material. 

Ticking suppliers also tapped into 

the sustainability zeitgeist. Many 


61

Events 

highlighted the use of sustainable 

yarns in their fabrics. And attendees 

saw a new twist in ticking 

— the use of artificial intelligence 

to help generate design ideas. 

In terms of look and feel, fabric 

colors trended toward calming 

pastels and a feeling of peace 

and serenity. 

In addition to showing the latest 

innovations, the event provided 

a taste of a hopeful future for the 

bedding industry. 

“It was great to see so many 

people for what seemed like a 

very busy show all three days,” 

said Chad Antinori, general 

manager of Future Coil, headquartered 

in Tampa, Florida. 

“Customers we talked to seemed 

to be excited about new innovations 

and much more ready to 

buy than ISPA 2022.” In fact, all 

the LianRou machines sold by 

the end of the show, he said. 

Rick Seely, executive vice presi- 


dent of Edge-Sweets Co., based 

in Grand Rapids, Michigan, had a 

good show, as well. 

“We didn’t have tire kickers; 

we had people who are decision-makers,” 

Seely said. 

“People were truly interested 

in furthering or advancing their 

technologies. We’re able to get 

a feel for the direction of how 

things are moving forward after 

a couple hard years with the decline 

in the mattress industry.”

second industry to export the most in March. While there was a general 

decrease in exports in March, the chemicals industry achieved a 5.6 percent 

increase in exports. 

Commenting on export figures 

of the chemicals industry 

in March, Chairman 

of the Board of Istanbul Chemicals 

and Chemical Products 

Exporters Association (İKMİB) 

Adil Pelister said: “In March our 

chemicals industry achieved an 

export value of over 3 billion dollars 

with a 5.6 percent increase 

compared to the same month 

last year and received 13.5 percent 

share of national exports, 

becoming the second highest 

exporter sector. While there was 

a decrease in general exports 

in March, it is pleasing that our 

chemicals industry remained on 

the positive side and increased 

its performance. When we consider 

figures from the first quarter 

we see that our export exceeded 

8 billion dollars. In this period our 

export as an industry grew by 7.7 

percent. Mineral fuels, mineral 

oils and products, plastics and 

products, and inorganic chemicals 

occupy the top three among 

our highest exported sub-industries. 

Among the highest receiver 

of exports, Holland, Romania, 

and Italy occupied the top three 

positions. As İKMİB we intensely 

continue our activities. Now that 

the uncertainty associated with 

election disappeared, we foresee 

that economics and exports 

will be emphasized further. We 

will continue to work more every 

month to continue to achieve this 

increase in exports.” 

“Mineral fuels and products” 

was the highest exported subindustry 

in March 

In March exports of mineral fuels 

products among sub-sectors of 

chemicals and chemical products 

reached 1 billion 82 million 391 


thousand dollars in value and 

occupied the first place. Plastics 

and products occupied the second 

place with exports reaching 

811 million 326 thousand dollars 

in value while exports of inorganic 

chemicals occupied the 

third place with 232 million 274 

thousand dollars in export value.

Sleeping soundly on 

tempered springs 

If you slept like a dream on your mattress last night, it may in part be due 

to the heat treatment of the springs in your mattress. Mattress springs are 

tempered during their manufacturing process. For this month’s blog we 

will start by discussing the history of the mattress and how it developed 

into using springs for comfort. Then we will talk about why springs are 

tempered and how the tempering process effects the steel. 

Sleeping on the cold, hard 

ground has always been terribly 

uncomfortable. People 

began sleeping on primitive beds 

about 10,000 years ago, during the 

Neolithic period. The word “mattress” 

comes from the medieval Arabic 

al-matrah, which means “large 

cushion or rug for lying on.” 

Until the 1800s, people made their 

beds from natural materials, such 

as straw, feathers and horsehair. 

While fluffy, these fillers tended 

to clump together to make for a 

lumpy bed. The natural fillers would 

break down quickly, resulting in uncomfortable 

pits of mushy material. 

The fillers were also attractive to 

bugs and other unwanted bedmates. 

The industrial revolution forever 

changed the way people slept 

through the introduction of coil 

springs. First patented for use in 

chair seats, steel coil springs soon 

found their way into mattresses. 

The first coil spring for bedding 

earned a patent in 1865. It did 

not take long for mattress manufacturers 

to realize that placing 

a set of uniform springs inside 

layers of cushiony upholstery 

created a comfortable bed with a 

firm, resilient, and uniform tex- 


ture. Bedsprings provide the right 

balance of support and “give” to 

create a comfortable night’s sleep. 

In the blink of an eye, the dream of 

sleeping on the perfect mattress 

became a reality. 

Tempered Springs for a Good 

Night’s Sleep 

There is more to making a comfortable 

bed than simply wrapping 

upholstery around any old set of 

springs, though. The springs and 

other materials must undergo 

certain manufacturing processes to 

improve their quality. For example, 

manufacturers may add flame-retardant 

chemicals to mattress upholstery 

and filling. They must also 

temper the springs to enhance the 

quality of the metal in the spring. 

The steel used in mattress springs 

is quite hard, especially after 

undergoing hardening processes 

of heating and quenching during 

manufacturing. While hardened 

steel is strong, it is also quite 

brittle. Internal strains caused by 

sudden cooling in the quenching 

bath can compromise the integrity 

of the steel. Tempering reduces the 

brittleness in the hardened steel 

of mattress springs, and removes 

internal strains associated with the 

quenching bath. 

Tempering is a manufacturing 

process that involves heating steel 

to a certain temperature and then 

cooling it to improve toughness 

and decrease brittleness by reducing 

the hardness of the steel. The 

exact temperature achieved during 

the heating process determines 

the amount of hardness removed. 

Manufacturers will temper very 

hard tools at low temperatures. 

They temper springs, like those 

used in mattresses, at roughly 

450F (232C). The tempering 

process gives mattress springs 

the flex that you feel when you lay 

down and the durability to withstand 

years of sleep filled nights.

The rise of natural plant 

fibres being used in 

mattresses 

It’s safe to say that over the last few years the popularity of Natural 

Fibre mattresses has only continued to grow. In particular, 

mattresses that use Natural Plant Fibres are on the rise, with many 

sleepers opting for them instead of animal fibres. 

But what exactly has 

caused this rise? And 

what makes Natural Plant 

Fibres in mattresses a great 

choice for you? 

Excellent ethical materials 

Unlike synthetic alternatives, 

natural plant fibres can be continually 

replenished over time, and 

their supply isn’t nearly as limited 

as animal fibres. The plants that 

produce these fibres can be 

grown and harvested over and 

over, which has numerous environmental 

benefits, such as the 

absorption of C02. Mattresses 

that use these natural plant fibres 

are great for the environment, 

and even the organic wastes 

produced during processing can 

be recycled and used elsewhere. 

For example, organic plant flax 

is pretty much waste-free, as the 

oil pressed from flax seeds can 

be used in a wide range of other 

products. 


Vegetarian and vegan friendly 

Like many other people, you 

might be leading a vegetarian or 

vegan focused lifestyle, which 

means having a suitable mattress 

that doesn’t use any animal 

products or fibres is a must. 

Thankfully, mattresses that use 

natural plant fibres are perfectly 

suited for this, and we have a 

number of vegan and vegetarian 

friendly mattresses, such as our 

origins reflex. 

Effective temperature regulation 

Natural plant fibres are not only 

incredibly breathable, they have 

extremely effective moisture 

wicking properties. For anyone 

who happens to be a hot 

sleeper, a mattress that uses 

Natural Plant Fibre fillings can 

be a perfect solution to help you 

sleep soundly. Take Bamboo for 

example, which can quickly wick 

away moisture from your body, 


83

File 

providing you with a comfortable 

temperature throughout the 

night. It can keep you cool in the 

summer, and nice and warm on 

colder nights. 

That fantastic feel 

One of the main reasons why 

these fibres have become so 

popular as a mattress filling is of 

course how they make you feel. 

These natural plant fibres are 

able to cater to any preference, 

thanks to the fact that they can 

be used individually, coupled 

together, and interchanged, to 

create a sleep surface that perfectly 

comforts and supports any 

sleeper. 

These fibres are some of the 

most resilient and best quality fibre 

fillings that you can find. Their 

responsiveness and breathability 

will perfectly compliment any 


soft, medium or firmer feeling 

mattress. For example, our artisan 

sublime mattress uses twin 

layers of vanadium coated calico 

pocket springs that are exquisitely 

enhanced by natural organic 

plant fibres, along with soft 

Alpaca. This combination creates 

an incredibly luxurious, medium 

feel, supportive and comforting 

sleep experience. 

“Our commitment to innovation 

drives us to continually push the 

boundaries of what’s possible 

in mattress textiles and sleep 

solutions,” emphasized Rafael 

Rodriguez, President of Bekaert- 

Deslee North America. “ISPA

How to efficiently roll pack 

a mattress 

Roll pack is one of the most 

common packaging methods 

for mattresses. This 

packaging method greatly saves 

the storage and transportation 

space of mattress manufacturers, 

and brings great convenience to 

the handling and transportation 

of mattresses. When we buy 

mattresses, we often see that the 

mattresses are rolled up in a box 

and sent to us when we receive 

them, especially sponge latex 

mattresses, etc. Now, let’s talk 

about how do we roll up a mattress 

with our automatic mattress 

compression, fold roll packing 

machine. If you are a mattress 

manufacturer who is troubled by 

the mattress packaging problem, 

then take a look at this article. 

First, pack the mattress 

Wrap the mattress by plastic film 

automatically by our machine, 

with hot sealing function to 

achieve a good packaging effect. 

Second, compress the mattress 

In order to achieve better rolling, 

the mattress is usually com- 


pressed. Of course, some mattresses 

with soft materials, such 

as latex mattresses, do not need 

to be compressed. It depends on 

the material of the mattress as 

well as your packaging requirements. 

Third, fold the mattress 

We provide two options of 

half-fold and three-fold, if your 

mattress size is large, we recommend 

choosing to fold the 

mattress. 

Then, roll up the mattress 

Use our mattress rolling machine 

to roll your mattress and end up 

with a rolled mattress for easy 

handling and storage. 

Finally, box the mattress 

The last step is to pack the rolled 

mattress into a box, which is 

usually beautifully printed with 

your logo, so that the mattress 

can be delivered to your customers. 

We have a variety of mattress 

compression & fold rolling machines 

for you to choose from. 

We have corresponding machines 

for all the above functions. 

If you only want to buy a machine 

with one of the above functions, 

we can also provide it for you. Of 

course, our full-featured integrated 

machine has all the above 

functions, and its functions can 

also be used independently. One 

machine can meet all your mattress 

packaging needs.

your awareness in the eyes of 

customers. It is necessary to 

convince customers by informing 

them well on issues such as long 

transit time, supply process planning. 

Since all these are elements 

that involve a certain process, 

we have taken the first steps of 

this process with the products 

we exhibited at this fair and the 

information we provided to our 

guests who visited our stand. In 

this context, as a company, we 

have demonstrated a good performance 

during the fair with the 

preparations we made before the 

fair. We are currently in intensive 

negotiations with our guests we 

met at the fair. We are in an effort 

to do good work in terms of contributing 

to the exports of both 

our company and our country 

from the fair that we have worked 

very hard.”

improved is in the automation 

of mattress production. 

Traditional manual processes 

have been replaced by automated 

machinery, which can perform 

tasks much faster and with greater 

precision. This eliminates the need 

for manual labor and reduces the 

chance of human error, resulting 

in consistent and high-quality 

mattresses. 

Another factor contributing to the 

efficiency of modern mattress 

machinery is the use of computerized 

controls and software. These 

systems enable manufacturers 

to monitor and control various 

aspects of the production process, 

such as temperature, pressure, 

and speed, with greater accuracy 

and efficiency. This allows for 

better control over the quality of 

the mattresses and reduces the 

chances of defects. 

Efficiency in modern mattress machinery 

also extends to the energy 

consumption of the equipment. 

With the development of energy-efficient 

technologies, manufacturers 

can reduce their carbon 

footprint and operating costs. 

Energy-saving features, such as 

automatic shut-off systems and 

power management software, 

help optimize energy usage and 

minimize waste. 


Technological innovations in 

mattress production 

The evolution of mattress machinery 

has been driven by technological 

innovations that have transformed 

the way mattresses are 

produced. These innovations have 

not only improved the efficiency of 

production but have also led to advancements 

in mattress comfort, 

durability, and design. 

One of the notable technological 

innovations in mattress production 

is the use of advanced materials. 

Memory foam, for example, has 

revolutionized the mattress industry 

by providing superior comfort 

and support. High-density polyurethane 

foams, latex foams, and 

gel-infused foams are also commonly 

used in modern mattresses, 

offering enhanced comfort and 

pressure relief. 

In addition to new materials, technological 

advancements have also 

led to improvements in mattress 

design. Computer-aided design 

(CAD) software allows manufacturers 

to create intricate and 

ergonomic mattress designs that 

cater to different body types and 

sleeping preferences. This enables 

the production of customized 

mattresses that provide optimal 

support and comfort for individual 

users. 

Another significant innovation in 

mattress production is the integration 

of smart technologies. Smart 

mattresses are equipped with 

sensors and embedded electronics 

that can monitor various 

aspects of the user’s sleep, such 

as sleep cycles, heart rate, and 

body temperature. This data can 

be analyzed to provide personalized 

sleep recommendations and 

improve overall sleep quality. 

Mattress spring machine 

The mattress spring machine is a 

crucial component of the mattress 

manufacturing process. It is 

responsible for the production of

eliminates the need for traditional 

contact-based spring forming 

methods, reducing wear and tear 

on the machinery and improving 

the overall lifespan of the equipment. 

Non-contact coil forming 

also enables better control over 

the shape and characteristics of 

the springs, resulting in enhanced 

mattress performance. 

The incorporation of advanced 

wire-guiding systems in mattress 

spring machines has also contributed 

to improved efficiency. These 

systems ensure accurate wire 

feeding and eliminate the chances 

of wire tangling or misalignment 

during the spring formation process. 

This leads to faster production 

times and reduces the need 

for manual intervention, resulting 

in increased productivity and 

cost-effectiveness. 

Mattress packing machine 

The mattress packing machine 

is an essential component of the 

mattress production process, 

responsible for compressing and 

packaging the finished mattresses. 

Over the years, the evolution of 

mattress packing machines has 

led to significant improvements 

in efficiency, speed, and product 

presentation. 

Modern mattress packing machines 

are equipped with advanced 

compression technology, 

allowing for the reduction of 

mattress volume without compromising 

its quality or comfort. These 

machines utilize powerful hydraulic 

systems to compress the mattress, 

making it easier to handle, 

transport, and store. The compression 

process also eliminates 

any potential air pockets within the 

mattress, ensuring a uniform and 

consistent product. 

One of the key advancements in 

mattress packing machines is the 

integration of automated wrapping 

systems. These systems 


use stretch films or plastic bags 

to tightly wrap the compressed 

mattress, providing protection 

against dust, moisture, and damage 

during transportation. The use 

of automated wrapping systems 

eliminates the need for manual 

labor and ensures a secure and 

professional-looking packaging. 

Furthermore, modern mattress 

packing machines often come 

with additional features, such as 

labeling and barcode scanning 

capabilities. These features allow 

for efficient tracking and identification 

of mattresses throughout the 

supply chain, facilitating inventory 

management and reducing the 

chances of errors or misplaced 

products. 

Tape edge sewing machine 

The tape edge sewing machine is 

a critical tool in the mattress manufacturing 

process, used for applying 

the tape edge to the mattress 

borders. This machine plays a 

significant role in ensuring the 

durability, aesthetics, and overall 

quality of the finished mattress. 

The evolution of tape edge sewing 

machines has resulted in increased 

efficiency and precision 

in the application of mattress 

borders. Modern machines are 

equipped with computerized controls 

and servo motors, enabling 

accurate and consistent sewing 

patterns. These machines can 

also accommodate various tape 

widths and stitch styles, allowing

features, such as automatic corner 

sewing and pneumatic tensioning 

systems, has further improved the 

efficiency of tape edge sewing machines. 

Automatic corner sewing 

eliminates the need for manual 

adjustment during the sewing 

process, reducing production time 

and ensuring uniform and neat 

corners. Pneumatic tensioning 

systems provide consistent and 

optimal tension control, resulting in 

straighter and more durable tape 

edges. 

Tape edge sewing machines also 

feature enhanced safety features, 

such as finger guards and emergency 

stop buttons, to protect

Hasplast: ISPA Expo 2024 was 

very productive for us 

Serkan Elitaş, CEO of Hasplast, said after ISPA Expo 2024 that the 

exhibition was productive for them and that they have already 

started preparations for the ISPA exhibition to be held in Orlando 

in 2026. 

Elitaş said that they had the 

opportunity to hold b2b 

meetings with the important 

companies of the American 

market and that they evaluated 

the meetings well, and that they 

made consultations with smallscale 

companies to do business 

in the future. Elitaş made 

the following statements in his 

statement; “We had the chance 

to meet with many companies 

from our important markets at 

the ISPA 2024 exhibition held in 

Columbus Ohio. The situation 

and future of the market were 

discussed with both our existing 

and potential customers. The 

majority of the visitors we hosted 

at our stand were companies 

with the capacity to export the 

products we presented, while 

the possibility of doing business 

with small-scale producers in 

the future was evaluated and 

ideas were exchanged. In this 

respect, ISPA 2024 exhibition 

was very productive for Hasplast. 

In 2026, we have already started 

our preparations for the ISPA 

exhibition to be held in Orlando, 

and we hope that Orlando will be 

even more productive.”

Ministry of Trade Supports 

IBIA Expo Exhibitors 

The Ministry of Trade has decided to support the IBIA Expo fair, 

which will be held for the 3rd time this year with the organisation 

of BİFAŞ Fuarcılık in cooperation with the IBIA Association. 

Within the scope of this decision, exhibitors will be able to get 

back up to 50% of the participation and stand construction fees 

they have paid within the upper limit. 

Following the accreditation 

of IBIA Expo as an ‘international’ 

fair, the authorities of 

the Ministry of Trade of the Republic 

of Turkey, which evaluated 

the application made by the fair 

organiser Bifaş and found it positive, 

included IBIA Expo in the 

list of Sectoral Qualified Domestic 

Fairs Covered by Support in 

2024. In 2024, there are 373 fairs 

that have been applied to the 

Union of Chambers and Commodity 

Exchanges of Turkey and 

decided to be organised, while 

the total number of fair organisations 

decided to be included 

in the support of the Ministry of 

Trade was 46. 

The support of the Ministry of 

Trade received two years after 

the first fair is an indication that 

IBIA Expo is the largest and 

strongest organisation in the 


Eurasia region and that the public 

confirms this situation. The IBIA 

Expo support, which is considered 

as a starting work for the 

Mattress Supply Industry and 

Technologies sector to achieve 

and exceed its export targets, 

will enable the organiser BİFAŞ 

to promote the fair effectively 

abroad. 

Within the scope of the support, 

the ministry, which will support 

approximately 450,000 TL of the 

fair participation fees paid by the 

exhibitors, will reimburse 222,474 

TL to the exhibitors. 

In addition, within the scope of 

the support of the Ministry of 

Trade, ‘Buyer Delegation Programme’ 

will also be held. Within 

the scope of the buyer delegation 

programme, the IBIA Association 

will take place as a cooperation 

organisation with the application 

to be made by the Organising Organisation 

BİFAŞ. The countries 

where the buyer delegation will 

be brought within the scope of 

the support to be made through 

the Exporters’ Associations will 

be determined in the coming 

days in line with the demands of 

the fair participants.
