Xennia's advanced products include its patented diagonal reciprocating inkjet textile printing system, the Xennia Emerald.

In addition, Xennias presentation will outline Xennia?s inkjet technology developments for textile coating and finishing, known as ?Digital Finishing?, including water-repellent, dirt-repellent, self-cleaning coatings and many other technical textile applications.

Xennia is also sponsoring the FESPA Fabric Live! fashion show, showcasing the benefits of digital inkjet printing and finishing for garments. Dr Wegdam says: ''We are very excited about presenting these garments as a way of showing the amazing capabilities of digital inkjet technology. This is only the start of our strategy to highlight the benefits of digital textile decoration and finishing to end users''
Xennia will have a meeting area at FESPA Fabric 2011 from 24-26th May (Hall B1, stand 67) for visitors to discuss their interest in digital textile decoration and finishing.
