About Us

Ilshin endeavors to renew itself everyday.

Established in 1951, Ilshin spinning has been producing cotton yarn for more than half a century. The textile industry played a pivotal role in Korea’s economic development by solidifying itself as the top exporter up until 1987.

Despite the intense industrial contraction that took place after the 1988 Seoul Olympics, we have continued to expand our advanced automated facilities and became the leading company in terms of both facility scale and product quality as well. As the leader of the textile industry, Ilshin is committed to develop and progress every day.

Ilshin

Renew yourself
today and every day

This passage from the “Great Learning”, one of the “Four Books” in Confucianism, emphasizes that you should not neglect cultivating virtues by correcting your mistakes on a daily basis.

Ilshin is the courtesy name of
Mun Ik-jeom, who introduced cottonseed to Korea.

Mun Ik-jeom was a politician and scholar during the late Goryeo dynasty. He was popularly known as Ilshin and his penname was Samudang. In 1363, he went to Yuan, China as an ambassador and on his return to Korea he hid cottonseed in the cap of his writing brush and brought it secretly into the country.

Ilshin was ranked No.1 in the Most Respected Companies in Korea in the category of fibers and cotton spinning for consecutive years.

Spirit of unity that values people
Under the belief that a company is another family, its employees being the members of the family, we continue to expand our facilities and systems needed to create a comfortable and pleasant workplace for all our employees.
Ethical management based on honesty, diligence and integrity
Our officers and employees instinctively follow this teaching from the Bible: "If a man does not work, he shall not eat", which is also the motto of our founder, late Chairman Kim Hyung-nam, who strove to provide stakeholders with the best corporate values.
Pioneering spirit, and tenacity and challenge
We continue to defy every limit based on our confidence that we can overcome any challenge just as we started our business from the rubble and our tenacity that we have focused on only one field, fabrics.
