Turkish woven fabric manufacturer LIA FABRIC is showcasing its sustainable production capabilities and expanding its international business network at Colombiamoda 2026, one of Latin America’s leading fashion and textile trade fairs.
During an interview with Behnam Ghasemi, Editor-in-Chief of Kohan Textile Journal, Rabia Tunçay shared how the company has integrated sustainability into every stage of its manufacturing process while pursuing new opportunities in the Latin American market.
Headquartered in Istanbul, Türkiye, LIA FABRIC specializes in woven fabric production, placing quality, innovation, and environmental responsibility at the core of its business strategy. Rather than treating sustainability as a marketing concept, the company has embedded it into its operations by powering its production facility entirely with electricity generated from solar panels.
Renewable Energy Supports Lower-Carbon Production
“We produce 100% of the electricity used in our woven fabric manufacturing facility from solar energy,” said Rabia Tunçay. “This enables us to reduce our carbon footprint while offering our customers high-quality fabrics produced through an environmentally responsible manufacturing model.”
LIA FABRIC continuously updates its collections to meet changing fashion trends and the specific requirements of different international markets. The company currently exports to a wide range of destinations across Europe, Africa, and other global markets, while identifying Colombia and the broader Latin American region as strategic growth markets.
By participating in Colombiamoda 2026, LIA FABRIC aims to establish new business partnerships, introduce its sustainable textile solutions to buyers across the region, and demonstrate how renewable energy can play a key role in the future of textile manufacturing.
