Yarn Manufacturing Programme
DTY Textured Polyester Yarn Manufacturer — Türkiye
We produce around 1,800 tonnes of textured yarn a month, and DTY is the backbone of that capacity. Eight standard constructions cover 50–150 denier and 36–96 filaments, all drawn on our own Oerlikon Barmag texturing line.
DTY (draw textured yarn) is made by drawing partially-oriented POY and heat-setting it with false twist. The first heater locks a permanent, spring-like helical crimp into every filament; the second heater kills the residual torque. That crimp is precisely what separates DTY from FDY — bulk, stretch, cover and moisture transport all come from it. This is why DTY is the carrying yarn of polyester knitted apparel.
Denier alone is not the number that decides an order. The same total denier divided across a different filament count produces a completely different fabric: 150 denier over 48 filaments puts about 3.13 denier on each and gives a full, durable surface; the same 150 denier over 96 filaments falls to about 1.56 and drapes markedly better. This is the single figure that most determines how a fabric feels.
Our programme covers that axis end to end: from the crisp, dry hand of 50/36 to the premium softness of 100/96 and the heavy sporting body of 150/48. The constructions sit in four production bands, and each band has its own tenacity, shrinkage and intermingle window.

Denier and filament count are chosen together
The right construction follows from the target fabric weight, the machine gauge and the hand you are after; a decision made on denier alone often ends in the wrong surface. Standard lustre is semi-dull, with bright and full-dull run on request. The intermingle level is chosen against your knitting speed. Quotation requests are answered within 2 business days.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order for DTY yarn?
Between 500 and 1,000 kg per colour; the exact figure depends on the construction and is confirmed with the quotation. Trial lots are discussed separately.
Which denier and filament constructions do you produce?
The standard programme covers 50/36, 75/36, 75/72, 100/36, 100/72, 100/96, 150/48 and 150/96. Microfilament constructions (50/72, 100/144, 150/288) sit in a separate programme.
Should I buy DTY or FDY?
If your knitted garment needs bulk, stretch and cover, DTY is right; where a flat, lustrous, high-tenacity yarn is required, FDY can be supplied. The number itself does not decide the process — the end use does.
What lustre options are available?
Standard lustre is semi-dull. Lustre is governed by the share of titanium dioxide added to the melt; bright and full-dull are run on request.
How should we choose the intermingle level?
Intermingling knots the filaments together at intervals with an air jet so the yarn feeds without opening. The level is chosen against your knitting speed and machine type; the wrong level causes filament separation and streaks in the fabric. Three levels are run, and each construction has its own band.
Do you share technical values before an order?
Yes. Tenacity, elongation at break, boiling-water shrinkage, crimp contraction, intermingling and spin finish bands are published on every yarn’s technical data sheet; exact batch figures are shared in the order report.
