Industrial Raw Material Supply at the Heart of the Defense Industry
Located just east of Ankara, Kirikkale is one of Turkey's most strategic centers in defense manufacturing and heavy metal processing. The weapons and ammunition production facilities, steel processing workshops, and foundries in the central district make this city a prominent consumer of industrial raw materials. Say Quartz directly contributes to this industrial infrastructure by supplying quartz sand, silica sand, and filter sand to all districts of Kirikkale from its production facility in Corlu/Tekirdag.
Silica Sands for the Foundry and Metal Processing Sector
Kirikkale's industrial identity is largely shaped around metal casting and processing operations. Foundry operations carried out at industrial facilities in the central district and in Yahşihan require a continuous supply of high-purity silica sand. Say Quartz's silica sands, produced in 7 different granulometries, deliver superior surface quality in mold preparation processes. In the foundry sector, raw material quality is a factor that directly affects the dimensional precision and durability of the final product.
Industrial facilities in the Bahşılı district are also among the businesses that demand sandblasting sand for metal parts manufacturing and surface treatment processes. Products used in sandblasting and surface preparation operations offer high efficiency in cleaning steel surfaces and preparing them for painting.
Industrial Activities in Yahşihan and Keskin
Yahşihan is a district that supports Kirikkale's industrial capacity. The concentration of workshops and manufacturing plants there necessitates the use of quartz sand in various grain sizes. Keskin district, in addition to agricultural production, hosts small-scale industrial activities. Quartz sands in 12 different grain sizes can be regularly supplied to both districts.
Construction Chemicals and Building Applications
Ongoing urban transformation projects in central Kirikkale keep the demand for construction raw materials active. Quartz sands used in the production of construction chemicals are among the core components that determine the quality of grout, plaster, and screed materials. Molding sand is another preferred product for exterior facade applications; it is used with confidence in projects requiring both aesthetics and durability.
Construction activities continue even in rural districts such as Delice and Çelebi. Quartz sand, as the raw material for construction chemicals used in residential and public building projects in these districts, is a critical input that must be integrated into the supply chain. In Sulakyurt and Karakeçili, similar raw materials are used in the maintenance and renovation of agricultural structures.
Drinking Water Treatment and Filter Sands
Access conditions to water resources in Central Anatolia make the efficiency of treatment facilities a strategic concern. Municipal water treatment plants in central Kirikkale can benefit from Say Quartz's filter sands, offered in 11 different types. These products, used in filtration layers, play a decisive role in meeting the clarity and safety standards for drinking water.
Clean water access in rural settlements in the Balışeyh and Delice districts is directly linked to municipal infrastructure investments. Hydroanthracite and Activated Carbon products serve as complementary elements in multi-layer filtration systems. As the name of Sulakyurt district implies, the management of water resources remains a vital issue for the region.
Quality in Industrial Water Treatment
Kirikkale's industrial facilities also require filter sand for process water and wastewater treatment operations. Quality filter products offer a reliable solution at every point where water quality must be kept under control, including agricultural processing facilities in and around Çelebi and Karakeçili.
Sports Infrastructure and Municipal Services
The proliferation of artificial turf fields throughout Kirikkale has increased the need for quality infill material. Artificial turf field operators in Yahşihan and Bahşılı, as well as the central district, prefer round-grain, skin-friendly artificial turf sand. Playground sands are another product group on the municipal agenda for parks and recreation projects.
In Kirikkale, which receives heavy snowfall in winter, traction sand is among the materials that must be stocked for the safety of highways and municipal roads. This need becomes even more pronounced in the mountainous areas of Keskin and Balışeyh.
