Kadifeteks Mensucat Sanayi A.Ş. / KETS is a fully integrated industrial textile manufacturer from Türkiye, built on more than a century of accumulated textile know-how, production culture and industrial experience. We are the largest upholstery fabric manufacturer in the EU. Operating under the KETS brand, the company specialises in upholstery fabrics, interior textiles, technical textiles, sustainable fabrics and high-performance textile solutions.
Kadifeteks is not only a fabric producer, but also an applied R&D, product development, prototype production and industrial validation partner. Our integrated production structure covers design, yarn and fabric development, weaving, dyeing, finishing, coating, lamination, quality control, physical and chemical testing, sample production, prototype development, pilot production and scale-up validation. This enables us to transform an idea or research concept into real textile samples, functional prototypes, demonstrators and scalable industrial products.
Kadifeteks has a strong innovation infrastructure supported by two state-supported R&D Centers and one state-supported Design Center. These centres allow the company to systematically develop new materials, new fabric constructions, sustainable textile solutions, functional finishes, circular product concepts and industrially applicable prototypes.
Approximately 95% of our production is exported to international markets, mainly to Europe, the USA and other demanding global markets. Therefore, Kadifeteks is highly familiar with international standards, certification requirements, technical documentation, compliance-oriented production and customer-driven sustainability expectations. Our customers are often active in niche and high-value sectors where durability, quality, safety, traceability, environmental performance and adaptation to emerging technologies are critical.
Kadifeteks has ongoing investments and development activities in green transition, water and energy efficiency, recycled raw material integration, textile-to-textile recycling, eco-design, safer finishing alternatives, digital process monitoring, production optimisation and AI-supported process control.
Kadifeteks has a strong project-oriented R&D culture and extensive experience in collaborative innovation activities. The company actively participates in national university–industry collaborations, bilateral and international cooperation initiatives, and different R&D partnership networks. In recent periods, Kadifeteks has also been actively involved in Horizon Europe-related consortium discussions, partner searches, proposal reviews and project concept development processes. This gives the company a solid understanding of European project logic, proposal structure, consortium expectations, impact-oriented thinking and collaborative R&D requirements.
