Why Turkey needs filter aid
Turkey has a large, diversified industrial base spanning automotive, textiles, machinery, chemicals and construction, with major ports at Ambarli, Mersin, Izmir and Kocaeli. Istanbul, Bursa and Kocaeli form the industrial core.
Bleaching earth is consumed in every batch of refined edible oil, at roughly 0.5–2% of oil weight, so refineries order it on a fixed schedule.
Chemicals, fertilisers & petrochemicals in Turkey
Kocaeli's refinery and chemical parks use alloy piping, seals and tanks.
In Turkey, petrochemical complexes and fertiliser plants buy filter aid from us mainly for edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) and mineral and lubricant oil re-refining.
Who buys filter aid: Petrochemical complexes · Fertiliser plants · Speciality chemical makers · Chemical distributors
Edible oil milling & refining in Turkey
Turkey crushes and refines oilseeds for its domestic market. Refineries need activated bleaching clay and filter aid on a predictable schedule; mills need bearings and couplings; packers need barrels and PET preforms.
In Turkey, oilseed crushing mills and solvent extraction plants buy filter aid from us mainly for biodiesel and wax and paraffin purification.
Who buys filter aid: Oilseed crushing mills · Solvent extraction plants · Edible oil refineries · Oil packers
Oil, gas & petrochemicals in Turkey
Oil and gas operations in Turkey run on pressure-rated pipe, valves, flanges and gaskets that must be traceable to a mill certificate. Shutdown and turnaround work creates sudden demand for large mixed lists — exactly the orders we consolidate into one shipment.
In Turkey, upstream oil & gas and refineries buy filter aid from us mainly for juice, beer and sugar filtration and edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran).
Who buys filter aid: Upstream oil & gas · Refineries · Petrochemical plants · Fuel depots
Typical uses: Edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) · Mineral and lubricant oil re-refining · Biodiesel · Wax and paraffin purification · Juice, beer and sugar filtration.
