The International Istanbul Yarn Fair, which showcases Turkey’s manufacturing power on the world stage, provides an opportunity to build a global network by attracting a wide range of visitors from Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

The fair, an unmissable event for domestic and international companies aiming to keep up with developments in the textile industry, primarily serves to introduce the latest trends and sustainable innovations in the field.
Sustainability and Innovative Technologies in the Textile Sector at the Yarn Fair
The International Istanbul Yarn Fair is also essential in promoting eco-friendly production technologies and sustainable yarn solutions. Sustainability, a particularly notable topic in yarn production, will be showcased at the fair through innovations such as yarns made from recyclable materials and production processes that operate with low energy consumption. These innovative products help industry companies reduce their carbon footprint and adapt to eco-friendly fashion trends.
The 2025 event will feature a wide range of yarns, including cotton, elastane, wool, acrylic, viscose, polyester, silk, nylon, textured, fancy, organic, polypropylene, regenerated, metallic, technical, hand-knitting yarns, and fibers, alongside spools, bobbins, and textile dyes and chemicals. As such, all types of yarns—the raw materials for textile products used in everything from ready-to-wear clothing to home textiles—will be represented at the event.
