This year marks seventeen years. 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 packaging. That single-site…
Tensile scatter within a coil — the number that matters most
Tensile scatter within a single coil is the technical variable that most affects downstream customers. A coil where every metre reads within a narrow tensile band lets a header or a bender run without adjustments; a coil with wide scatter forces…
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….
Container shortage, freight costs and longer lead times: 2021
2021 is the year of the container shortage. Freight cost per tonne to some destinations went up several times over. Some customers moved to nearer suppliers; others locked in longer, guaranteed lead times with us. Our response has been to publish…
EN 10204 3.1 inspection certificates — why we default to them in 2021
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 2021 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 2021. 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 2021 we run straightening and cutting lines that hold length tolerance…
Looking back on 2020 — production, customers, and what changed
2020 brought steady demand across our end sectors and continued expectation on documentation quality. COVID-19 disrupts logistics and workforce. We keep the plant running with distanced shifts and prioritise customers in cold-chain, food processing and healthcare packaging. We exported to EU,…
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 2020. 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 2020
In 2020 our export mix is: EU, MENA, Africa. 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. We…
