Message from the General Manager
Dear Stakeholders,
Since starting our journey in the Explosives Industry in mid-2014, we have continued to grow both nationally and internationally, achieving an ever-increasing market share and brand value.
Our company proudly holds the distinction of being the fastest-growing firm in Türkiye and Europe. We are committed to ongoing growth through imminent investments in Europe and capacity increases within our country.
As one of the youngest companies in the sector, our dynamic, strong and experienced management and operations team leads not only our business and team but also embraces change, creating remarkable success stories. Our ability to think globally while acting locally distinguishes us and provides a competitive advantage.
We will continue to write success stories with the global strength of the SOLAR brand and our innovative management approach. I would like to express my gratitude to our hardworking employees, valued customers, suppliers, and business partners—the key contributors to our success—for their trust and support. I extend my heartfelt appreciation and respect to all of you.
