This year marks twenty years in Muradiye OSB. The plant is a 7,000 m² wire manufacturing facility in the Muradiye Organized Industrial Zone (Muradiye OSB), Manisa. Under one roof we run wire rod receiving, cold drawing, annealing, cut-to-length, flat-bar profiling, and…
Drawing die maintenance — small things that decide our tonne cost
Drawing dies are consumables. How we maintain them decides three things: surface quality on the wire, drawing energy per tonne, and yield. We inspect and rotate dies on a fixed schedule and pull one out of service the moment its wear…
Fastener manufacturer moves to bright-drawn from black-drawn — smoother heading, less die wear
A fastener manufacturer we have supplied for several years switched from black-drawn to bright-drawn wire for their higher-run parts. The reason was header die wear. Bright surface produces less friction at forming; die life goes up. Coating-ready surface is a bonus….
EPDs, scope 3 and the sustainability paperwork we are learning to do
2024 is the year the sustainability paperwork got real for us. EU buyers are asking for EPDs (environmental product declarations) and scope 3 emissions figures during quotation, not after award. We are learning. We are honest about what we can measure…
EN 10204 3.1 inspection certificates — why we default to them in 2024
EN 10204 3.1 is a “specific inspection document” — validated by our inspection department, independent of the production line — that certifies the material meets ordered specification and gives real test results from the actual heat. In 2024 it is treated…
White-goods buyers keep raising the bar on wire surface
Turkey’s white-goods sector — refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers — remains one of the biggest end-users of our cold-drawn wire in 2024. The pattern is consistent: surface has to be clean enough for a paint or coating step, tensile has to be tight…
Cut-to-length wire and why the length tolerance matters
Cut-to-length wire looks like a commodity from the outside. Inside a fastener mill or a welding-electrode plant, one millimetre of length variance across a pallet is a real problem. In 2024 we run straightening and cutting lines that hold length tolerance…
Looking back on 2023 — production, customers, and what changed
2023 brought steady demand across our end sectors and continued expectation on documentation quality. Supply chains normalise but freight costs stay high. Customers reward vendors who can turn around EN 10204 3.1 documentation quickly. We exported to EU, MENA, Africa, Americas….
TS 2348 — Turkish standard for annealed wire
TS 2348 covers annealed low-carbon steel wire. We reference it on domestic and select regional shipments in 2023. Full-annealed and inter-annealed cycles are selected by the target tensile and the customer’s downstream process. Turkish standards remain a natural reference for our…
Export destinations — where our wire is going in 2023
In 2023 our export mix is: EU, MENA, Africa, Americas. Different destinations have different documentation expectations. Every export shipment travels with an EN 10204 3.1 inspection certificate and a commercial pack that includes packing list, invoice, and country-of-origin documentation on request….
