FAQ

Wholesale Sherpa Fabric — Common Questions

What is sherpa fabric?
Sherpa is a 100% polyester double-face knit fabric: one side is a smooth fleece surface, the other a long-pile plush that imitates natural sheepskin (which is why it is also called teddy fleece, lamb fleece or faux shearling). Altunkaya Tekstil produces it at 290-310 gsm, 160-170 cm width — the premium winter fabric for jacket linings, hoodies and bathrobes.
What is the difference between sherpa and teddy fleece?
They are the same fabric family under different trade names. "Sherpa" is the common term in the US and international fashion, "teddy" or "teddy fleece" is widely used in Europe, and "borg" appears in UK retail. In Türkiye the fabric is called "peluş" or "kuzu peluş" (lamb plush). All describe a knit fabric with a curly or long-pile sheepskin-look surface.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for wholesale sherpa fabric?
Our MOQ is 50 kg per color — one of the lowest among Turkish fabric manufacturers. Stock colors ship in 2-5 business days; custom colors and printed designs take 10-15 business days.
What weight (GSM) is sherpa fabric?
Our standard sherpa runs 290-310 gsm at 160-170 cm width, 100% polyester. The printed plush variant is 290-300 gsm at 180 cm. This weight range gives enough pile density for jacket linings and bathrobes while staying workable on standard apparel machinery.
Can I order printed sherpa or plush fabric in bulk?
Yes. Printed sherpa/plush — leopard, dots, animal and character designs or your own artwork — is produced from 50 kg. Digital or reactive printing; production takes 10-15 business days after sample approval. It is popular with kidswear, toy and home-textile manufacturers.
Do you ship sherpa fabric to the EU and Nordic countries?
Yes. We export to Germany, France, the UK, Scandinavia and 50+ countries. EU shipments arrive in 3-7 days with EUR.1 movement certificates under the EU-Türkiye Customs Union. Dyeing and finishing are carried out in GOTS, Better Cotton (BCI) and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I certified facilities; documents are shared on request.
