Standard Textiles and Küçükçalık are known for their diverse textile product portfolio. The companies have decided to cooperate for their growth in healthcare, hospitality, and other consumer markets. Specialized expertise and knowledge of two leading textile manufacturing companies could make this joint venture a great success.
At the start of 2021, Standard Textile was credited with the “Best Health Care and Medical Innovation” by Ohio Business Magazine for developing a uniquely American-made reusable cover gown to help protect frontline medical workers responding to the global pandemic.
Küçükçalık is a premier global textile manufacturing company with key operations in Turkey and Egypt. The company opened its first weaving mill in 1990 and added dyeing and printing factories in 1992. In 2019, Küçükçalık created a new sustainable yarn from discarded PET bottles using advanced spinning technology.
The company is listed among the top 500 companies in the Turkish industrial sector.
Gary Heiman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Standard Textile, said, “We are pleased to announce this new joint venture for Standard Textile. We have admired Küçükçalık’s world-class facilities in Turkey and Egypt, and this joint venture allows us to both expand our global footprint and leverage their technology and expertise in fiber extrusion.
Their innovative fiber extrusion and texturizing operations provide new opportunities for our research and development teams to collaborate in designing and developing sustainable products using recycled fiber to meet the needs of current and future customers.”
