We allocate 2% of our turnover to R&D activities and we are working hard for delivering works that add value to the industry.

Having accomplished a 30% growth in the company-wide, it aims to increase its exports by 45% in 2019. I would like to emphasize that we exported our products to over 80 countries in 2018. We achieved very successful results in the foreign market in 2018. We also successfully completed our CQC audit for the Chinese market at the end of the year. In the next period, there will be leading markets of ours in Africa and the Asia Pacific.
