The world textile industry is rapidly turning to high value-added products. Technical textile
production is rapidly increasing all over the world. In this sense, world textile manufacturers are turning to
the production of high value-added, high-quality textile and apparel products and innovation-intensive,
know-how-intensive special products. Being one of the leading textile centers of Turkey and the world,
Denizli has a developed infrastructure and experience especially in the field of home textiles and 75% of
Turkey's towel exports, 65% of bathrobe exports and 55% of duvet cover exports are made from Denizli.
This study aims to examine the current situation of companies operating in Denizli in technical textile
production that is different from traditional production and has added value. Accordingly, at the end of the
survey study, it was revealed that although the companies have a deep-rooted history and infrastructure in
the field of home textiles, they are lagging behind in technical textile production.
