Kordsa, Kompozit Teknolojilerinde Yeni Yatırımıyla Avrupa’da büyüyor

Kordsa, Microtex Composites S.R.L.’in katılımı ile müşteri portföyüne süper lüks otomotiv ve motor sporları müşterileri başta olmak üzere, denizcilik ve endüstriyel uygulama sektörlerini de dahil edecek.

Bu sayede Avrupa’daki ayak izini genişletecek olan Kordsa, aynı zamanda Türkiye ve Amerika’da geliştirdiği ürünleri sunabileceği bir üs de oluşturmuş olacak.

Sabancı Holding iştiraklerinden Kordsa, global liderliğini ve satış ağını yurt dışı yatırımlarıyla pekiştiriyor. İleri malzeme şirketi olma yolunda kararlılıkla ilerlerken, her geçen gün Avrupa’daki ve dünyadaki yerini sağlamlaştırmaya devam ediyor.

Kordsa, kompozit teknolojileri iş kolunda 2016 yılında devreye aldığı Türkiye’de örnek sanayi-üniversite iş birliği modeli olan Kompozit Teknolojileri Mükemmeliyet Merkezi yatırımının ardından, 2018-2019 yıllarında, ABD pazarında satın almalar gerçekleştirdi. Şimdi ise Kordsa, Türkiye'deki ve ABD’de yapılan yatırımları takiben Avrupa’da süper lüks otomotiv sektörü ve motor sporlarına karbon fiber dokuma ve prepreg sağlayan İtalyan Microtex Composites şirketinin çoğunluk hisselerini satın alıyor.

Avrupa doğrudan yabancı yatırımlar onayının alınması için gerekli olan kapanış koşullarının gerçekleşmesine bağlı olarak, söz konusu satın almanın, 2022 yılının ikinci çeyreğinde sonuçlandırılması bekleniyor.

Kordsa, kompozit teknolojileri alanına yapacağı bu yatırımla, hem sektör ve ürün bazlı çeşitlilik imkânı sağlamayı hem de mevcutta kuvvetli havacılık müşteri portföyünü çeşitlendirerek özellikle otomotiv ve motor sporları alanında hizmet yelpazesini genişletmeyi hedefliyor.

Stratejik büyüme hedefleri doğrultusunda kararlılıkla ilerlediklerini belirten Sabancı Holding Sanayi Grubu ve Kordsa Yönetim Kurulu Başkanı Cevdet Alemdar: “Sabancı Holding olarak ‘Sürdürülebilir bir yaşam için öncü girişimlerle Türkiye ile dünyayı birleştiriyoruz’. Bu satın alma ile topluluk vaadimize yönelik önemli bir adım daha atmış oluyoruz. Yaşamı güçlendirme hedefi ile yola çıkan kompozit iş birimimiz, bu yatırım ile Avrupa’da global ayak izimizi güçlendirecek.

Bu kapsamda sürdürülebilirlik odaklı yeni teknolojilerle ülkemizde ve dünyada büyüme fırsatlarını değerlendirmeye devam edeceğiz.”

Kordsa CEO’su İbrahim Özgür Yıldırım:
“Süper lüks otomotiv ve motor sporları segmentlerinde ürün portföyümüzü genişletecek bu yatırımın, şirketimizin güçlü bir konumda olduğu havacılık dışındaki farklı sektörlerde de Kordsa’nın geliştireceği ürünlere yepyeni fırsatlar yaratacağına inanıyorum.”

Microtex Composites Genel Müdürü Massimiliano Becagali:
“Kordsa, gerek kompozit teknolojilerinde Amerika’da havacılık endüstrisindeki girişimleriyle gerekse Türkiye’deki Ar-Ge merkezleriyle öncü bir şirkettir. Teknik tekstil sektöründe de dünyada lider olan Kordsa ile yaptığımız ortaklıktan memnuniyet duyuyoruz. Bu ortaklığın Microtex Composites’i de güçlendireceğine ve uluslararası bir dinamizm katacağına inanıyorum.”

Yalova’daki karbon elyaf kompozit malzeme üretim tesisi, 2023’te üretime başlıyor

DowAksa’nın yeni entegre tesisinin temeli atıldı

DowAksa’nın Yalova’da 117 bin metrekarelik alana kurulacak yeni entegre tesisi, 2023’te tam kapasiteyle üretime başlayacak. Tesis, Türkiye’nin karbon elyaf kullanan endüstriyel sektörlerdeki payını artıracak.

YALOVA – Katma değerli karbon elyaf kompozit malzeme üreticisi DowAksa, Yalova’da kuracağı yeni entegre üretim tesisinin temel atma törenini gerçekleştirdi. Törene T.C. Sanayi ve Teknoloji Bakanı Mustafa Varank, Yalova Valisi Muammer Erol, Yalova Milletvekili Meliha Akyol, Yalova Belediye Başkan Vekili Mustafa Tutuk, Akkök Holding Yönetim Kurulu Başkanı Raif Ali Dinçkök, Akkök Holding İcra Kurulu Başkanı ve DowAksa Başkan Vekili Ahmet Dördüncü ve DowAksa İcra Kurulu Başkanı Douglas Parks ile şirketin üst düzey yöneticileri katıldı.

DowAksa’nın 117 bin metrekare üzerine inşa edeceği ve 2023’te tam kapasite ile üretime başlaması planlanan bu tesisi ile Yalova’da 500 kişiye yeni istihdam yaratılacağı belirtildi. Tamamlandığında, kısa ve orta vadede rüzgâr enerjisi sektöründe artan talebi karşılayacak kapasiteye ulaşması için önemli bir adım atılacak. Yeni üretim tesisi, aynı zamanda Türkiye’nin karbon elyaf kullanan endüstriyel sektörlerdeki payının arttırmasına katkı sağlayacak.

Bakan Varank: “Örnek olacak yatırım”

Törende konuşan T.C. Sanayi ve Teknoloji Bakanı Mustafa Varank, “Türkiye’nin stratejik bir üretim üssü olma hedefinde önemli bir yatırım hayata geçiyor. DowAksa, üretim kapasitesini 2,5 kat artırarak ülkemize sağladığı katkıları da yükseltecek. Örnek olacak bu yeni tesisin hızla tamamlanmasını diliyorum. Dünyanın hem en ekonomik hem de en iyi performansa sahip karbon elyafı, Yalova’da DowAksa tarafından üretiliyor” dedi. Yalova Milletvekili Meliha Akyol da ileri teknoloji gelişimiyle Türkiye’nin ihracatını yükselteceğini ifade etti.

Temel atma töreninde konuşan DowAksa Yönetim Kurulu Başkan Vekili Ahmet Dördüncü ise “Bu yatırım katma değerli ihracat ve istihdam olanağı sağlamakla kalmayıp ülkemizin stratejik sektörlerdeki özyeterliliğini de destekleyecek. Yüksek performanslı karbon elyaflarımızla yenilikçi kompozit çözümleri geliştirmeye ve hem yerel hem de globaldeki iş ortaklarımızın hızla yükselen taleplerini karşılamak amacıyla yatırım yapmaya devam edeceğiz” diye konuştu.

DowAksa İcra Kurulu Başkanı Douglas Parks da Ar-Ge kabiliyetleri sayesinde daha büyük rüzgâr kanatları ve daha yüksek enerji verimliliği sağlayan özel bir kompozit profil üretme imkanına sahip olduklarını ifade etti. Kuruşlarının 10. yılında böyle önemli bir yatırıma imza atmaktan dolayı gurur duyduklarını kaydeden Parks, hizmet verdikleri diğer tüm stratejik iş sektörlerine de bu tür çözümler sağlamak için çalışmalarına devam ettiklerini dile getirdi.

Rüzgâr enerjisindeki artan ihtiyacı karşılayacak

Yalova, DowAksa’nın tedarik zinciri ve mevcut üretim tesisiyle; hammadde, enerji ve diğer gereksinimlerde tam entegrasyonu sağlamak için yeni yatırımda stratejik nokta olarak belirlendi. 2024’te tam kapasiteye ulaşması beklenen bu yatırımla; rüzgâr türbini kanatlarındaki karbon elyaf kirişleri önemli miktarda Türkiye’de üretilecek. Böylelikle iç piyasada rüzgâr enerjisi projelerindeki artan ihtiyaçlar karşılanacak. Yeni tesis ayrıca, Türkiye’de karbon elyaf kompozit malzeme kullanan sektörlerin yanı sıra hızla büyüyen global otomotiv endüstrisindeki ihtiyaca da cevap verecek.

DowAksa’nın gerek dünyanın birçok ülkesine ihraç ettiği gerekse Türkiye’nin rekabet gücünü arttırmaya yönelik ürettiği çözümler arasında bulunan karbon elyaf takviyeli poliüretan reçine esaslı pultrüze profiller, yeni nesil rüzgâr türbini kanatlarında kullanılıyor. Şirket, daha uzun ve büyük kanatlar için özel geliştirdiği pultrüzyon üretim teknolojisi sayesinde uluslararası rüzgâr enerjisi sektörüne daha fazla tasarım özgürlüğü, hafiflik ve maliyet avantajı sunuyor.

Two heads are better than one; a problem shared is a problem halved – you get the picture. Basically the gist here is that teamwork is usually the best way to solve problems.

In manufacturing this is often the case. It’s why a machine tool company for example will work closely with a tooling specialist, a CAD/CAM developer and/or a cutting fluid expert. It’s because the companies concerned are much stronger working together than they are as separate entities. Partnerships are a vital ingredient in the manufacturing industry.

The benefits of collaboration are the main subject of our cover story this month – but they’re not always preconceived. Sometimes they just happen and that’s why our cover article is such a positive story and a shining example of how, when companies work together, they can achieve great things.
