Our story
Eliş Şile Bezi Tekstil was founded in 1999 by Hasan Kayan. We weave, finish, and distribute authentic Şile cloth — Turkey's heirloom natural cotton — to dealers and boutiques across Europe, the Americas, and the Middle East.
We started in 1999 as a manufacturer producing for our own atelier. As the designs caught on with traders, we moved into wholesale and built a full B2B program — weaving, garment production, finishing, and door-to-door logistics for natural Şile cloth clothing (the fabric international buyers know as Turkish cotton gauze, muslin or double gauze).
Today a team of more than 150 people runs the operation: seven retail stores of our own, close to a thousand stockists across all 81 provinces of Türkiye, and exports to the United States, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, France, Australia, Japan, Romania and beyond. Alongside our own label we produce OEM and private-label collections for brands abroad.
Our atelier in Ümraniye, Istanbul adds roughly a hundred new styles to the collection every season and keeps investing in fabric R&D — without letting go of the hand-loom character that makes Şile cloth what it is.
To use the rich resources, productive workforce, and geographical advantage of our country to sell special products woven from Şile cloth to customers around the world — promoting Türkiye's regional and authentic textile heritage while continuously improving product and service quality to exceed customer expectations.
To be a pioneer in the Şile cloth sector. To stay loyal to ethical values, respect the environment and the people who work with us, and to use technology responsibly to produce quality goods without environmental harm — preserving our natural textile heritage for future generations.
Honest pricing, honest stock, honest lead times.
We obsess over fabric hand and finishing — every roll, every season.
Custom series, sensible MOQs, and quick replies when plans change.
Natural fibres first — pure cotton at the core. Lower-impact production, longer-lasting garments.
We promote Türkiye's textile heritage to boutiques on four continents.
Continuous R&D in weaving, finishing, and dyeing — without losing tradition.
We aim to be a trusted and sought-after partner by understanding our customers' needs at every step — and producing solutions that are right, suitable, and economical, quickly, before problems arise.
We invest continuously in our team's knowledge of quality, environment, and occupational health & safety. We follow technological developments closely and apply them to reduce cost and improve performance.
Above all we are respectful — to human health, to human rights, to the society and environment we operate in. Our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001:2015.
