“We had a very nice Ramadan month in peace. From now on, I sincerely wish our country to spend many holidays in unity and solidarity.
Today at Kardemir, we give a gift to all our employees as a souvenir of this holiday and commemorating the World Environment Day. They're gonna plant these in their gardens and make these seedlings live. We are an environmentally friendly company. I'm telling you that we have finished our environmental investments and reported this to our ministry. We have completed an environmental investment of around $ 150 million. We made our application for our permit. In memory of this, we want to show our respect to the environment by distributing these saplings and then to show how we will continue with the environment.
We have invested more than 25 billion dollars for 2,5 years in Kardemir. These investments made us able to produce high value added products. At the end of this year, Kardamir will hope that 3 will reach a million tons / year production level. Next year we will add one blast furnace. With him, 3,5 will have a million. Producing only 500 thousand tons / year rebar, this factory has become able to produce many products with high added value today. They have started from the rail in the first place, we produce heavy profiles do not exist in Turkey. We built the wire rod factory to supply raw materials to the machinery manufacturing industry. We built the wheel factory, whose hot tests are about to end. This giant factory produces high value-added products. Here, we will produce products to the arms industry, the automotive industry and the machinery manufacturing industry. After that, I hope we will be producing these products as the order arrives.
I see our employees smiling. This is our most important. On behalf of our board of directors, I wish them to be more happy and congratulate everyone on the holiday with my sincere wishes and wish this holiday to be beneficial ”.
