Rapid Growth and Strategic Market Expansion

Although Sintec is a relatively young company, its trajectory has been nothing short of remarkable. Since making its international debut at ITMA Milan in 2015, the company has focused on building strong partnerships across the globe. India has played a pivotal role in Sintec’s growth, being the first country to which it exported machines, thanks to the trust of early adopters in Tirupur. Today, almost 50% of Sintec’s production is destined for the Indian market, a testament to its unwavering commitment and strategic investment.

The company has meticulously developed an extensive sales network in India, segmented into three regions with dedicated service technicians to ensure seamless support. Going beyond mere sales, Sintec has cultivated strong technical collaborations and long-lasting customer relationships, reinforcing its reputation as a trusted partner in the textile industry.

Innovative Product Line: Leading the Compacting and Finishing Sector

Sintec has solidified its position as a leader in compacting and stabilization of knitted fabrics, offering the widest range of models and configurations to cater to diverse industry needs. The company continues to expand its finishing machine portfolio, with plans to launch new brushing machines in 2025. These machines will enhance the surface finishing of both knitted and woven fabrics, delivering a superior peach skin effect and setting new industry benchmarks.

Sintec’s ability to outperform competitors in India is rooted in its winning formula of quality, innovation, service, and competitive pricing. As Ms. Maria Sole Panozzo, Head of Administratrion, highlights, “Our DNA is built on manufacturing high-performance machines with utmost precision and construction quality. They are simple to operate yet deliver exceptional results, making them indispensable for finishing premium-quality fabrics.”

One of Sintec’s crowning achievements has been the introduction of the A3 Supercompact, the world’s first three-felt compactor. This game-changing technology has set a new standard in compacting, earning widespread recognition across global markets and remaining unsurpassed to this day.

Sustainability and Technological Advancements: The Future of Textile Processing

As global textile brands demand higher fabric quality, cost efficiency, and sustainability, Sintec has responded with groundbreaking innovations. The company’s EASYPOWER series, a new generation of compacting machines, exemplifies this vision. Featuring a unique mixed rubber-felt technology, these systems operate with zero water consumption, minimal electricity, and steam usage, ensuring maximum environmental sustainability and reduced production costs.

Having already demonstrated outstanding performance in Tunisia, Egypt, Turkey, and South America, EASYPOWER has now made its Indian debut in Ludhiana, where the first machine is delivering exceptional results. As Ms. Panozzo asserts, “This new technology will create a revolutionary touch and feel for fabrics, setting a new market standard.”

Beyond product innovation, Sintec is deeply invested in automation and artificial intelligence (AI). The company’s remote assistance module allows real-time machine monitoring, ensuring prompt issue resolution and uninterrupted operations. Over the past two years, Sintec has intensified its AI-driven advancements, reinforcing its commitment to continuous improvement and technological excellence.

Service Excellence and Commitment to India’s Textile Future

Reliability is a cornerstone of Sintec’s philosophy. The company’s machines are engineered to minimize downtime and maintenance requirements, ensuring uninterrupted production for clients. By leveraging top-tier design expertise and premium components, Sintec guarantees robust machine longevity and efficiency. Electronic parts from globally recognized brands like Schneider further enhance machine reliability, with spare parts readily available through Sintec’s global distribution network.

Recognizing India’s dynamic growth in textiles, Sintec is actively expanding its service infrastructure. Within the next one to two years, the company plans to establish a large-scale service hub in India, facilitating comprehensive repairs, assistance, and spare parts availability.

“Our commitment to India goes beyond selling machines,” affirms Ms. Panozzo. “We aim to support the industry’s growth with cutting-edge technology, superior service, and ethical business practices. Sintec will continue to evolve alongside India’s textile sector, ensuring our solutions remain at the forefront of industry advancements.”
