Raw Material Support for Malatya's Growing Economy
Malatya, described as the western gateway of Eastern Anatolia, is a metropolitan city that stands out not only for its apricot farming but also for its developing industrial infrastructure and urban renewal projects. The industrial zones in the central districts of Battalgazi and Yeşilyurt host facilities operating in textiles, food processing and metal sectors. This versatile economic structure requires a reliable supplier to meet the raw material needs of various sectors. Say Quartz, operating under Kumsay Madencilik, has been responding to this demand in Malatya with 35 years of continuous production.
Post-Earthquake Reconstruction and Construction Raw Materials
Malatya, located in an earthquake zone, is experiencing intensive construction activity in reinforcing and renewing its building stock. Ongoing housing projects in Battalgazi and Yeşilyurt are among the main factors increasing quartz sand consumption in construction chemicals production. Say Quartz quartz sands used in grout filling materials, plaster mixtures and screed production adapt to various building applications with 12 different grain sizes.
Reconstruction work is also ongoing in Doğanşehir and Akçadağ districts. In construction projects in these areas, the use of rendering sand is becoming widespread as an application that enhances exterior facade aesthetics. Construction chemicals also play an important role in the process of preserving the historical character of Darende and designing new structures in harmony with it.
Epoxy Floor Coatings in Urban Renewal Projects
New commercial buildings, shopping centers and public buildings in Yeşilyurt and Battalgazi prefer epoxy systems for flooring applications. Say Quartz epoxy aggregates enable the creation of durable, easy-to-maintain and aesthetically pleasing floors in these projects. Epoxy coating applications are also becoming widespread in factory and warehouse floors at industrial facilities in Hekimhan and Yazıhan districts.
Silica and Foundry Sands in Industrial Zones
Metalworking, machinery manufacturing and foundry activities continue in Malatya's organized industrial zones. Silica sand used in these facilities is a critical raw material in the preparation of casting molds. Say Quartz's silica sands in 7 different granulometries meet the quality standards required by foundry workshops in Malatya.
Sandblasting and surface preparation operations are also regularly performed at industrial facilities in Battalgazi. Say Quartz sandblasting sands offer an effective and economical solution for processes such as preparing metal surfaces for painting and cleaning rust and lime. Small-scale metalworking workshops around Kuluncak and Arguvan also benefit from these products.
Drinking Water Treatment and Filtration Solutions
The water infrastructure of Malatya is an area that requires constant investment alongside a growing population and urban development. There is a wide range of filter sand needs, from large-scale water treatment facilities in the central districts to small-capacity systems in districts such as Pütürge, Kale and Doğanyol. Say Quartz's filter sands offered in 11 different types provide suitable solutions for treatment facilities of every scale.
In the mountainous geography of Arapgir and the settlements along the Euphrates River in Arguvan, clean water supply directly affects quality of life. The quality of filter sand used in water treatment systems in these areas is the key determinant of treatment performance. Say Quartz also supports the installation of multi-layer filtration systems by supplying other filter products such as Hydroantracite, Activated Carbon, Garnet, Basalt and Calcite.
Agricultural Water Management in Darende and Doğanşehir
Darende's orchards and Doğanşehir's agricultural lands are among the areas where irrigation water needs to be purified through filtration. In the fertile plains of Akçadağ, agricultural irrigation systems also make filter sand use mandatory. In these districts, irrigation cooperatives and individual farmers can use Say Quartz products in their filtration equipment.
Sports Facilities and Public Spaces
Malatya is one of the cities known for its investments in sports infrastructure. The artificial turf field facilities in Battalgazi and Yeşilyurt, and the district sports complexes in Doğanşehir and Akçadağ, are places where the need for artificial turf sand is constant. Say Quartz artificial turf sands are prepared with a production philosophy that prioritizes athlete health, with skin-friendly grain structure and appropriate size distribution.
District municipalities in Malatya are also making active investments in children's play areas. Access to hygienic playground sand in park projects of Hekimhan, Yazıhan, Kale and Kuluncak municipalities is facilitated by Say Quartz's distribution capacity.
Winter Conditions and Traction Sand
Malatya experiences harsh winters, and icing creates a serious traffic safety problem especially in high-altitude districts such as Pütürge, Doğanyol and Arguvan. Traction sand used by road maintenance crews during winter provides grip on road surfaces and helps prevent accidents. Say Quartz traction sands are produced in the appropriate grain size for this purpose.

Shipments from Say Quartz's production facility in Çorlu/Tekirdağ to Malatya are regularly made via Turkey's road network. The daily production capacity of 5,000 tons leaves no room for disruption in fulfilling large-volume orders.
