The 16th Central Asian International Textile Machinery Exhibition (CAITME 2025) was held from September 9 to 11 at the Uzexpocentre NEC in Tashkent. GESTER showcased textile testing equipment, including the Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester GT-C13B, Color Assessment Cabinet GT-D08, and Hydrostatic Head Tester GT-C26A.

At the exhibition, a steady stream of clients visited the GESTER booth for product consultations. Among them, the newly upgraded Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester GT-C13B received consistent praise from international customers. Instead of the structure supported by steel balls, the new and upgraded design avoids the risk of uneven cover plate caused by ball wear. The cover plate can be folded and turned up to facilitate sample loading and test results. Many customers expressed that the GT-C13B Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester precisely matched the ideal product they had been seeking.

Other GESTER products, such as the Color Assessment Cabinet GT-D08, Hydrostatic Head Tester GT-C26A, and Electronic Crockmeter GT-D04, also attracted significant attention.

Digital Hydrostatic Head Tester is used to testing the waterproof properties of fabrics through waterproofing work such as canvas, coated fabrics, hood fabric, tarpaulin, rain-proof fabrics and geotextile. It features an internally installed water tank design and an original water pressure balance system, ensuring a stable and precise rate of rise.

The Electronic Crockmeter GT-D04 evaluates textile colorfastness to dry or wet rubbing. Its pinned acrylic sample holder enables rapid sample mounting and consistent results.
