Erdem Fabrics, a third-generation, family-run business based in Bournemouth, made a strong and confident debut at The Furniture Component Expo, attracting considerable interest from buyers and industry professionals alike. With over 63 years of heritage in textile sector, Erdem Fabrics continues to bridge tradition and innovation, offering premium upholstery fabrics crafted to meet the high demands of the furnishing industry.
“We were absolutely delighted by the response to our stand,” said Sahika, Managing Director of Erdem Fabrics. “The feedback was incredibly encouraging, and it was a real pleasure to engage with so many buyers and partners who value quality and design.” One of the key highlights was the launch of the “Velvet Touch” collection—an opulent yet hardwearing velvet range designed with both aesthetics and durability in mind. This, along with their updated colour palette of rich, trend-led hues, proved to be a major draw.
What truly sets Erdem Fabrics apart is its unique weaving techniques, which allow the fabrics to achieve remarkable density and structure without relying on chemical treatments. Instead, Erdem Fabrics use A+ grade yarns and advanced craftsmanship to create thick, luxurious textiles that retain their shape and durability over time. This approach not only ensures a more sustainable product but also highlights the depth of skill involved in their fabric production.
“Our fabrics are a result of skilled weaving, not synthetic enhancement,” added Sahika. “It’s a point of pride for us that the thickness and weight of our textiles come from craft, not coatings.” Erdem’s market position is clearly defined: to deliver designer-level collections with commercial durability, making them ideal for manufacturers and designers working at volume without compromising on style or quality. Their existing ranges, such as “Heritage Weave” and “Luxe Chenille”, continue to be bestsellers thanks to their timeless appeal and adaptability across various interior schemes.
Looking ahead, Erdem Fabrics is already planning its return to the Furniture Component Expo next year. “FCE has consistently been a fantastic platform for us,” shared Sahika. “It’s an ideal environment to strengthen relationships and highlight what sets Erdem Fabrics apart.” Finally, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire BFA team for their tireless efforts before, during, and after the event. Their warm hospitality and unwavering support were sincerely appreciated by all of us at Erdem Fabrics.
