Fabric manufacturers in Turkey provide a wide range of fabrics for the worldwide textile market. The strong clothing business in Turkey drives fabric makers to increase production and fabric types.

We already have various fabric manufacturers in Turkey in our database. However, your needs are critical in identifying the best Turkish fabric manufacturers for you.

Do you need denim fabric, brode fabric, or knit fabric? Or do you want 100% cotton fabric or a mix of cotton and synthetic? There are so many different fabric types that listing all the fabric manufacturers in Turkey is almost impossible.

The Importance of Fabric Manufacturers in Turkey

The textile sector covers the process from fiber to yarn and completed fabric, whereas the ready-made apparel sector covers the process from fabric to clothes. Yarn is the industry pioneer. The middle one is the knitting sector, which is the main source of power feeding the clothing industry. Therefore, the clothing business in Turkey is dependent on fabric manufacturers in Turkey. Ready-made clothing is responsible for producing and marketing the country’s added value, fashion, and final product.

Strong Clothing Business in Turkey

Since the 1980s, the clothing business in Turkey has maintained a solid position. In the article titled “Turkish Clothing Manufacturers,” I have offered some eye-catching statistics about Turkey’s clothing production and exports. With a market share of 3.7%, Turkey is the third largest garment supplier in the EU and the sixth largest in the globe, as stated in the post. Turkey also exports 4.1% of knitted apparel, making it the world’s sixth-largest knitwear exporter.

In Turkey, there are around 74,946 enterprises in the clothing, textile, and leather sectors. Furthermore, Turkey has 39,973 garment manufacturers and suppliers, employing 677,395 people.

Under these circumstances, it is easy to assume that the country’s huge apparel sector supports hundreds of fabric manufacturers in Turkey. However, I will only evaluate the most experienced fabric makers, who may be able to deliver the most competitive price bids.

Knitting Industrialists Association (ORSAD)

In order to make a high-quality listing of fabric manufacturers in Turkey, I first attempted to find a relevant civil society organization that registers fabric manufacturers in Turkey. The closest to my search intent was the Knitting Industrialists Association, which represented the fabric manufacturers in Turkey. I then performed a general search on Google.com.tr.

ORSAD-Knitted Industrialists Association

I recognized that ORSAD does not list all of the fabric manufacturers in Turkey. For instance, YUNSA is the largest integrated upper-segment woolen woven fabric manufacturer in Europe, but ORSAD did not list the company. In addition, the association does not have an “About Us” page or an English version of the website. However, it lists around 300 small-scale fabric or thread manufacturers that you may find helpful if you are looking for small-scale production.

You can also see the knitting machines that the registered manufacturers use. Please note that we can directly contact the association as well as member companies for your fabric needs.

The Top Fabric Manufacturers in Turkey

As stated above, it is not easy to list all the fabric manufacturers in Turkey. Therefore, I will present a list of 10 fabric manufacturers with accompanying fabric information. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any uncommon fabric requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

I estimate that there are 1200–1300 fabric manufacturers in Turkey. If you are seeking boutique fabric makers, you should browse the ORSAD member list. However, if your fabric investment is substantial, my list will suffice.

No. I explained the Turkish cotton sector as well as Turkish cotton manufacturers in the post. 800,000 tons of cotton are manufactured annually in Turkey, while 1,9 million tons are consumed. Turkey is importing cotton in significant amounts, and therefore, the price of cotton fabrics is more expensive compared to other fabrics.

I already listed Turkish denim manufacturers in detail. Please read that post for denim fabric manufacturers.
