Dyeing and Finishing Machine Manufacturers in Turkey

Dyeing and finishing machines dye, wash, dry and finish fabric, yarn or sewn garments; this category lists the companies that make or sell them: jet, overflow and yarn dyeing machines, stenters (tenter frames, called ram in Turkey), compactors, dryers, and denim washing, laser and ozone machines for sewn garments. To have a mill dye, finish or wash your goods, see dye houses and finishing mills and garment and denim washing facilities. Dyes and chemicals are under textile chemicals and dyes, rotary and digital yardage printing lines under printing machines, laser fabric cutters under cutting machines. A steamer or wash unit sold separately from a printing line stays here.

Which dyeing or finishing machine for which job?

• Fabric dyeing: jet, overflow, air-flow, jigger and winch (haspel) machines. The jigger dyes fabric in open width, the winch in rope form.
• Yarn and warp dyeing: yarn dyeing machines dye hanks, bobbins and combed wool top; the liquor moves while the material stays still. In beam dyeing, only the liquor circulates through material wound on a warp beam or perforated cylinder.
• Finishing and drying: stenters, compactors, sanforizing (sanfor) and napping (şardon) machines, and dryers. Napping raises a pile on the fabric surface. Finishing changes fabric weight and dimensions; see our fabric weight guide.
• Sewn garments: denim washing machines and laser and ozone finishing systems.

Comparing quotes

• Capacity: The Thrace Development Agency report (2020) describes machines by their number of chambers (göz) and capacity in kg. Ask for capacity on your own fabric type and weight.
• Liquor ratio and consumption: Liquor ratio is the weight ratio of dry textile material to process liquor. The EU's textiles BAT (best available techniques) conclusions (2022/2508) list low-liquor-ratio systems for batch processes, optimized air circulation in stenters (new plants or major refurbishments) and waste-gas heat recovery among the best techniques. Have the quote state water, steam and electricity consumption, and the fabric and load they were measured with.
• Materials and components: The report says machine makers consider AISI 316 stainless steel necessary on surfaces that contact chemicals. Ask which part is made of which steel and where the pump, valves and control panel come from; for wear parts, see spare parts companies.

Pressure equipment documents, installation and service

The report says the vessels of the dyeing machines it examined reach a pressure close to 3 bar. As of the date of this page (October 11, 2026), Turkey's Pressure Equipment Regulation (2014/68/EU; in Turkish) applies to pressure equipment with a maximum allowable pressure (PS) above 0.5 bar, with exclusions such as equipment that falls under the Machinery Safety Regulation and does not exceed Category I (art. 2). Ask the seller in writing whether the machine is within its scope and, if so, for the CE marking and the EU declaration of conformity. Rules where the machine will run may differ, so check with your own adviser; for workplace inspection and maintenance duties, consult an occupational health and safety specialist. For general machinery documents, see textile machinery and equipment.

Have the quote state installation, commissioning, training and warranty-period service. When the plant is outside Turkey, ask which company will handle service locally. See also machinery service and used machinery.

Where dyeing and finishing machinery production is concentrated

Turkey is a producer in this field. According to the Textile Machinery and Accessories Industrialists Association (TEMSAD), dyeing, washing and finishing machines were 75% of Turkey's US$830 million textile machinery exports in 2023 (Textotex, May 30, 2024). The Thrace Development Agency's October 2020 report, citing TOBB (Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey) data accessed June 16, 2020, lists 125 registered producers of washing, dyeing and bleaching machines: 38 in Istanbul, 17 in Konya, 14 in Tekirdağ, and 12 each in Bursa and İzmir. Tekirdağ has the most employment (880 people), and the report says its industry along the Ergene–Çorlu–Çerkezköy axis has a dyeing machine cluster. The data is from 2020 and counts registered producers, not dealers. To see machines running, check the trade fair calendar.
