We create sustainable, innovative values in textile

We aspire to improve people’s lives through high tech textile integrated products.

Sun Tekstil R&D Center, certified and supported by the Ministry of Industry and Technology of the Republic of Turkey, was established in 2010. Understanding customer needs and pain points, designing user-friendly solutions, building strong collaboration for market-oriented products, and delivering innovative B2B or B2C solutions are our core values. Our R&D Center has three main areas of activity: Fashion Technologies, Industrial Transformation, and Protective Technologies.

Fashion Technologies

We follow the generational changes in the fashion industry and focus our efforts on rising trends, with a sustainable approach. We define our vision by setting our strategies, in light of the latest technological developments in the ready-to-wear industry. Sustainable design is one of our priorities, and we base our work on this core.

Industrial Transformation

We closely follow the rising trends and technological developments in the fashion industry and invest in our future. We develop our research, development, collaboration, and innovation projects according to two main pillars in the textiles and ready-to-wear industry: sustainability and digital transformation. Our goal is to strengthen our position as one of the technological leaders in the industry.

Protective Technologies

We work with protective clothing, equipment, and materials in this area of activity. In order for our country to strengthen its position and increase its competitiveness in the global protective textiles sector, we continue our work in this field which has higher added value in comparison to traditional textiles production.
