On his past in construction business
We have a construction company active for 45 years in
Konya. We also supply construction materials, ceramics,
marbles, etc. We import from China, Vietnam, Spain and

On projects realized
The most famous is Musiad homes, besides are Yeşil Site,
Yeşil Bahçe, etc. all for upper segment. Recently we

consumed.
On steel door manufacture
We have had some difficulties while procuring steel doors
from our supplier. Then we decided to enter door manufa-

On production capacity
At present we produce 40 units daily. We produce for our-

What is the distinction of the company?
We made it monoblock steel. Sides are covered with
