What is Aerobin?

Aerobin is a trade name used in Turkey, especially in modest clothing (tesettür in Turkish) and women's clothing, for a fabric that sources describe as a lightweight, wrinkle-resistant woven. It is not a fiber or weave name, and the sources reviewed give no shared technical definition: the stated fiber composition changes from seller to seller. There is no established English equivalent, so if a Turkish supplier writes “aerobin” in a quote, ask for the composition, weight and construction in writing instead of relying on the name.

What the sources cover

No standard, academic study or manufacturer technical data sheet defining aerobin was found, and the Turkish Language Association (TDK) dictionary has no entry for it (accessed October 11, 2026). The information below comes from newspaper, news, blog and fabric-seller pages, all in Turkish, and none of the pages reviewed gives a test method or test values. For a trade name like aerobin, this entry states as a definition only what is consistent across several sources, and says so where the sources disagree.

What aerobin is and is not

• It is not a fiber name. The sources describe aerobin as a blend of fibers such as cotton, viscose, polyester or polyamide; so aerobin is the name of the fabric, not of a fiber.
• It is not a weave name either. The pages reviewed do not state the weave (plain weave, crepe, etc.) consistently.
• It is described as woven. Several pages call aerobin a woven fabric (“a semi-synthetic woven fabric”, “dense weave”, “weaving technique”); none calls it knitted.
• It has sub-names. Names such as “linen aerobin”, “aerobin crepe” and “natural aerobin” are seen; they are not standard either. One fabric company says an aerobin containing cotton is called “natural aerobin” (Çalı Tekstil); the sources do not explain whether the word “linen” refers to a fiber blend.
• The spelling varies. The spelling ayrobin is used for the same fabric.

Why the composition is inconsistent

The pages reviewed state the composition of aerobin differently:

Some sources give two different compositions on the same page. None shows a manufacturer or a standard definition; the actual composition is learned only from the product label and fiber analysis.

Commonly described properties (seller claims)

All nine pages reviewed describe aerobin as a fabric used in modest clothing; the products named most often are ferace (a long outer garment), tunic, shirt, cardigan and dress. All of the pages say it is wrinkle-resistant. Many mention lightness, vivid colors and a dense, non-see-through feel; only one page calls it drapey. Three pages recommend washing at a low temperature (30–40 °C); five pages say the composition contains elastane or Lycra, and two of them link it to stretch. These are seller and blog claims, not measurements. One page says in the same text both that the fabric “does not wrinkle” and that it “has a wrinkled look”, so even the expectation about wrinkling is inconsistent in the sources.

Aerobin, fibers and weaves

Cotton, viscose, polyester and polyamide are fibers; plain weave, twill and satin are weaves. Aerobin is neither: it is a product name. That is why two aerobin fabrics need not behave alike: one may be mostly polyester, another mostly cotton-viscose.

What to specify when you order

1. Write the composition, not the name: ask for the fiber names and percentages, and the elastane percentage if there is any.
2. Ask for weight in g/m², with the test method: ISO 3801 or EN 12127. For the oz/yd² equivalent use the fabric GSM calculator; if you buy rolls by weight, use the fabric meter to kg calculator.
3. Ask whether it is woven or knitted, and for the weave: the sources are not consistent on this.
4. Tie “does not make you sweat”, “does not wrinkle” and “does not shrink” claims to measurement: EN ISO 9237 for air permeability, EN ISO 11092 for water-vapor resistance, and ISO 5077 for dimensional change after washing (with washing and drying to ISO 6330 procedures). The fabric shrinkage calculator helps with the cut size.
5. Calculate the order quantity: for products such as tunics or ferace, the fabric consumption calculator works out the fabric needed from consumption per piece and waste.

You can see which families fabrics fall into in the fabric types guide, and search for makers and suppliers in the Modest Clothing and Woven Fabrics categories.

Frequently asked questions

Is aerobin fabric breathable?

Sweating is the body's way of cooling and no fabric can stop it; a fabric's job is to absorb sweat, spread it and let it evaporate. Most of the pages reviewed say aerobin does not make you sweat, but none gives air-permeability or water-vapor-resistance values; a few pages note that a fabric high in polyester, or entirely polyester, can feel hot. Because the composition varies there is no single answer: the EU fiber labeling regulation accepts moisture allowances of 1.5% for polyester, 8.5% for cotton and 13% for viscose (1007/2011, Annex IX). Decide from the fiber percentages on the label and from EN ISO 9237 and EN ISO 11092 values. More in breathable fabrics for summer.

Does aerobin fabric wrinkle?

The sources do not agree: all of the pages reviewed say it is wrinkle-resistant, but one page also writes “has a wrinkled look” in the same text. These claims are not based on measurement. State your wrinkling expectation in the quote and check the appearance of a sample after washing.

What fiber is aerobin made of?

There is no single answer; as the table above shows, sources give different blends. Learn the fiber percentages from the label and from fiber analysis.

Are aerobin and ayrobin the same fabric?

Three of the sources reviewed use “aerobin” and “ayrobin” together or interchangeably for the same fabric; both are spellings of the same product name. The sources do not explain what “linen aerobin” and “aerobin crepe” mean, and the only explanation for “natural aerobin” is that it contains cotton (Çalı Tekstil). Check their compositions on the label.
