Your Raw Material Partner in the Western Black Sea Industrial Corridor
Located on the Istanbul-Ankara highway at the gateway to the Western Black Sea, Duzce is one of Turkey's most dynamic mid-sized provinces, with its industrial infrastructure and agricultural production capacity. The organized industrial zones in the central district, the transportation advantage of Kaynaşlı, and the tourism potential of Akçakoca are the elements that feed Duzce's raw material needs from different sectoral axes. Say Quartz contributes to meeting this diverse demand by supplying quartz sand, silica sand, and filter sand to all eight districts of Duzce from its production facility in Corlu/Tekirdag.
Industrial Facilities and Industrial Raw Materials
The organized industrial zones in central Duzce host hundreds of facilities operating in sectors such as automotive supply industry, furniture manufacturing, metal processing, and plastics production. Quartz sand and silica sand in different grain sizes are used at various stages in the production lines of these facilities. Say Quartz's quartz sands in 12 different grain sizes are offered in the variety needed to meet each sector's specific requirements.
Gümüşova district is also a center that supports Duzce's industrial capacity. Metal casting, molding, and surface treatment processes are carried out at production facilities there. Say Quartz's silica sands, produced in 7 different granulometries, ensure superior mold performance and surface precision in casting operations. Small and medium-scale manufacturing plants in Çilimli district also use silica sand and quartz sand at various stages of production.
Sandblasting and Surface Preparation Applications
Sandblasting operations are an indispensable production stage in metal construction manufacturing, machinery production, and the mounted equipment sector. Say Quartz sandblasting sands used in sandblasting and surface preparation operations at industrial facilities in central Duzce and Gümüşova deliver high efficiency in removing corrosion from steel surfaces and preparing them for painting. Industrial facilities along the highway in Kaynaşlı district are also among the businesses that regularly procure these products.
Construction Chemicals and the Construction Sector
Duzce is a province that was largely rebuilt after the 1999 earthquake, and construction activities in line with modern building standards continue to this day. Housing projects, commercial buildings, and public buildings in the central district create continuous demand for quartz sand, the raw material for construction chemicals production. The quality of grout, plaster, screed, and exterior facade coating materials is directly related to the grain size and purity of the quartz sand used.
Housing construction and infrastructure projects in Cumayeri and Gölyaka districts are also among the elements supporting this demand. Molding sand is a product that provides both aesthetics and durability in exterior facade applications of buildings throughout Duzce. Epoxy floor coating systems are preferred across a wide range — from industrial facility floor coverings to the floors of commercial spaces.
Akçakoca: Tourism Infrastructure and Special Applications
Akçakoca, on the Black Sea coast, is the most valuable district of Duzce in terms of tourism. Quality building materials are used in the construction and renovation of hotels, guesthouses, and holiday facilities along the coastline. Say Quartz products offer suitable solutions for epoxy floor coatings, pool surrounds, and outdoor surfaces at these facilities.
Children's playground sand in parks and recreational areas along the Akçakoca coast is a material on the municipal investment agenda. Say Quartz's hygienic and soft-textured playground sands are produced to standards suitable for children's health. Public spaces arranged along the coast are elements that enhance the city's tourism potential.
Drinking Water Treatment and Filter Sands
While Duzce's forested geography brings rich water resources, the growing population and industrial activities make the quality of treatment processes critical. Municipal water treatment plants in the central district can benefit from Say Quartz's filter sands, offered in 11 different types. The quality of materials in filtration layers directly determines the safety and clarity standards of the output water.
Rural settlements in the mountainous terrain of Yığılca district access drinking water through small-scale treatment facilities. The preservation of water quality around Lake Efteni in Gölyaka is also a matter to be monitored from an environmental sustainability perspective. Say Quartz's complementary filter products such as Hydroanthracite, Activated Carbon, and Basalt offer integrated solutions in multi-layer filtration systems.
Industrial Wastewater Management
The treatment of wastewater resulting from production processes at Duzce's industrial facilities is a mandatory process required by environmental regulations. Wastewater treatment units at factories in Merkez, Gümüşova, and Çilimli must regularly renew their filtration materials. Say Quartz filter sands provide reliable and long-lasting filtration performance in these facilities.
Sports Facilities and Municipal Services
Artificial turf field facilities throughout Duzce are widely active in both urban and rural areas. Artificial turf field operators in Merkez, Kaynaşlı, Cumayeri, and Çilimli require quality artificial turf sand as surface infill. Say Quartz's round-grain artificial turf sands meet athlete safety and surface performance to the required standards.
Icing that forms in winter threatens traffic safety on Duzce's sloped roads and on the highways at the Kaynaşlı-Bolu pass. Traction sand is a critical material for ensuring safe transportation on these routes. Traction sand stocks in the high-altitude areas of Yığılca also form an integral part of winter preparations.
Logistical Advantage and Say Quartz Assurance
Duzce's location on the Istanbul-Ankara highway offers a major logistical advantage. The road connection from Say Quartz's production facility in Corlu to Duzce is fast and direct. Say Quartz, producing with 35 years of industry experience under Kumsay Madencilik, carries out regular raw material deliveries to all districts of Duzce with a daily capacity of 5,000 tons.
A product variety suited to industrial, construction, and infrastructure projects in every corner of the province — from Merkez to Akçakoca, from Cumayeri to Yığılca, and from Gölyaka to Gümüşova — is available. Every demand, from high-tonnage industrial orders to small-scale projects, is met by Say Quartz's flexible supply structure.
