Weaving
is What We Do

Melih Aker Tekstil is a 4th generation weaving company based in Bursa, Turkey's historic textile capital. Since 1938, weaving has been our sole craft — and over decades, we have refined it into a genuine competitive edge. Our in-house design studio translates trends into woven constructions with precision, working in IFR-certified technical fabrics and high-end natural fibre blends alike.

Technical Performance

IFR — Inherent,
Not Applied

Our IFR fabrics meet the demand of the most specification-driven projects. The flame retardant property is permanently woven into the fibre — it does not wash out, fade or diminish over the life of the fabric.

Atlas Contract supplies full technical documentation including test reports and material data sheets.
