Raw Material Support for the Quiet Strength of the Western Black Sea
Bartin, located on the Black Sea coast and possessing a small but distinctive economic structure, is a notable province for its forest products industry, tourism potential, and developing infrastructure. The commercial activity in the central district, the tourism-oriented development of Amasra, and the rural production dynamics of Ulus and Kurucaşile create raw material needs across different sectors. Say Quartz responds to these needs by supplying quartz sand, silica sand, and filter sand throughout Bartin from its production facility in Corlu/Tekirdag.
Tourism Infrastructure and Epoxy Applications
Amasra is Bartin's best-known tourism center, welcoming thousands of visitors each year. Epoxy floor coating systems are becoming increasingly common in the construction and renovation of hotels, restaurants, and boutique accommodation facilities. Specially graded epoxy aggregates provide both aesthetic appearance and durability in such applications. The use of playground sand in recreational areas and children's parks along the Amasra coastline is also on the municipal agenda.
Kurucaşile is one of the rare settlements in Turkey that continues the tradition of wooden boat building. Sandblasting sand is used in surface preparation at the shipyards and workshops in this district. Quality sandblasting sands yield effective results in cleaning and smoothing boat hulls prior to painting.
Artificial Turf Fields and Sports Facilities
Artificial turf field facilities operating in central Bartin and Amasra are among the businesses requiring quality surface infill. Round-grain, skin-friendly artificial turf sands make a difference in terms of athlete safety and surface performance. Products in this range offer appropriate solutions for sports facility investments in Bartin.
Construction and Building Chemicals
Urban development in central Bartin feeds the demand for raw materials used in construction chemicals. Quartz sand, as an indispensable component of grout, plaster, and screed production, is among the core inputs of the construction sector. Quartz sands produced in 12 different grain sizes meet the technical requirements of every type of construction application.
In Ulus district, projects aimed at renewing the rural building stock are ongoing. Molding sand used in exterior facade applications gives buildings both an aesthetic appearance and resistance to weather conditions. Epoxy aggregate has also joined the list of preferred materials for floor coverings in commercial buildings in the central district.
Drinking Water Treatment and Filter Sands
While Bartin's abundant rainfall due to its Black Sea climate brings rich water resources, it also makes the quality of treatment processes a critical factor. Filter sands produced in 11 different types by Say Quartz can be used in water treatment facilities in the central district. The effectiveness of the filtration process is directly proportional to the quality of the filter material.
In the coastal settlements of Amasra and Kurucaşile, drinking water quality is also a determining factor for the sustainability of the tourism sector. In the settlements of Ulus district's mountainous geography, small-scale treatment units are the primary guarantee of clean water access. Hydroanthracite and Activated Carbon products also offer multi-layer filtration solutions in these facilities.
Industrial Use and Silica Sands
Small-scale industrial facilities and manufacturing workshops in Bartin require silica sand in various production processes. Silica sands produced in 7 different granulometries are used in fields such as molding, foundry casting, and the glass sector. Sandblasting and surface preparation operations in metal processing workshops in the central district are also an integral part of surface preparation processes. Sandblasting sands yield effective results in preparing iron and steel surfaces for painting.
Municipal Services and Winter Safety
Bartin faces heavy snowfall and icing risks in winter months. Traction sand is a material used to keep highways and municipal roads open to safe transportation. At the high-altitude passes of Ulus district and on the steep roads of the central district, traction sand stocks form an integral part of winter preparations. The use of traction sand on the coastal roads of Amasra and Kurucaşile during seasonal icing periods also ensures the safe flow of traffic.
