Professional Solutions for Industrial Sand Needs in Diyarbakir

One of the largest cities in Southeastern Anatolia, Diyarbakir has maintained its character as a center of trade and production throughout history. Rapidly growing housing projects in the Bağlar and Kayapınar districts, restoration work aimed at preserving the historic fabric of Sur, and modern construction in Yenişehir keep the city's construction sector continuously active. This intensive building activity increases demand for quality building materials year after year.

As Say Quartz, we provide uninterrupted quartz sand, silica sand and filter sand supply to Diyarbakir from our production facilities in Çorlu/Tekirdağ. Our daily production capacity of 5,000 tonnes offers sufficient flexibility to meet the city's growing needs.

Quartz Sand for the Construction and Building Chemicals Sector

Ongoing urban transformation projects in Diyarbakir's central districts have significantly increased demand for quartz sand used in construction chemicals production. In the mass housing areas of Bağlar district, quartz sand is an indispensable raw material for exterior cladding, grout filling and floor screed applications. In new residential areas rising in Kayapınar, demand for fine-grained quartz varieties for decorative plaster sand and decorative cladding materials is gradually increasing.

Say Quartz's quartz sand product range, offered in 12 different grain sizes, is broad enough to accommodate the various formulations of construction chemicals producers in Diyarbakir. Fine quartz sands used in epoxy floor coating applications are a particularly preferred product in commercial spaces and shopping centers in Yenişehir.

Restoration and Decorative Plaster Applications in Sur District

Sur district, on the UNESCO World Heritage List, requires special materials for the restoration of historic buildings. Quartz sand added to mortar mixes used in the repair of traditional stone structures plays a critical role both in terms of durability and aesthetics. Decorative plaster (söve kumu) applications concretely demonstrate the contribution of modern material technology to the preservation of the historic fabric.

Agricultural Irrigation and Drinking Water Treatment Systems

Diyarbakir has some of Turkey's most productive agricultural lands. Intensive agricultural production takes place in the Bismil plain, and irrigation infrastructure is being expanded across large areas in Çınar district. The quality of the irrigation water used in these agricultural activities directly affects crop yields. Filter sands offered in 11 different types are designed to meet the filtration needs of agricultural irrigation systems.

The presence of thermal water resources in Çermik district has increased interest in water treatment technologies in the region. Industrial wastewater treatment units at facilities in Ergani and the municipal drinking water treatment facilities in Silvan are among the significant sources of filter sand demand. In Eğil and Dicle districts, filter sands integrated into compact treatment systems are used in rural drinking water projects.

Water Infrastructure Investments in Hani, Hazro and Lice

Municipal water infrastructure renewal works continue in Diyarbakir's northern districts of Hani, Hazro and Lice. Drinking water filter sand is one of the essential components improving water quality in these projects. Similar infrastructure investments are also planned in Kocaköy and Kulp districts, and filter sand supply for these areas can be provided through professional suppliers.

Industrial Sector and Foundry Applications

Metal processing and foundry workshops operating in Diyarbakir Organized Industrial Zone require high-quality silica sand. Silica sands offered in 7 different granulometries are used in mold making and surface treatment processes in the foundry sector. Mining activities in Ergani district and the related downstream industries also consume industrial sand for sandblasting and abrasive blasting operations.

Sandblasting sand is also used for metal surface cleaning in small-scale production facilities in Çüngüş and its surroundings. Our silica sand products are produced to meet the purity and particle distribution standards required by these facilities.

Sports Facilities and Recreation Areas

Diyarbakir's young population structure keeps demand for sports facilities high. Numerous artificial turf facilities are located in Bağlar and Kayapınar districts, and special artificial turf infill sand is supplied for the surface fill of these facilities. The use of playground sand is spreading in parks and gardens in Yenişehir.

Municipal investments in sports and recreation areas are also increasing in densely populated districts such as Bismil, Silvan and Çınar. Certified playground sand for children's play parks is preferred for creating a safe and hygienic surface.

Transportation Infrastructure and Traction Sand

Diyarbakir's road network is heavily used due to the city's role as one of the region's logistics centers. In winter, there is a risk of icing on mountainous routes, particularly in the direction of Palu, Çermik and Çüngüş. Highway authorities and municipalities increase driving safety on these routes by using traction sand.

Stockpiling traction sand in high-altitude areas along the Lice–Hani–Kulp route is also an integral part of winter preparations. Say Quartz has the stock and logistics capacity to meet these types of seasonal demands.
