As one of the pioneering private enterprises in the paper industry, we were founded in Istanbul in 1976. We specialize in the production of Fluting, Testliner, and Grey Board, utilizing technologies such as Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and Quality Control Systems (QCS) to enhance efficiency and product quality. Operating on a 45,000 m2 facility in Küçükçekmece, we prioritize the efficient and environmentally friendly use of energy resources. Our Natural Gas Cogeneration Power Plant partially meets our energy needs, producing both steam and electricity through cogeneration, while focusing on integrating management systems to effectively manage our operations.
Operating with a total quality approach, our company places continuous improvement at the forefront to meet the needs and expectations of all our customers, employees, and stakeholders. Through our wastewater treatment ponds, we purify the wastewater from our processes, reusing a significant portion within our processes to minimize water consumption.
As Halkalı Kağıt, we have increased our capital to 1,139,000,000 TL as of 2023, providing employment for approximately 270 individuals. In our environmentally friendly company that supports green production, we exclusively use 100% waste paper for production, while recycling paper and packaging waste to contribute to the economy and create significant value for our economy and a sustainable world. By preventing the felling of thousands of trees, we contribute to the preservation of forested areas.
Born in 1937 in Trabzon/Of, our esteemed founder, Orhan Saral, took his first steps into the world of commerce at the age of 16 and found success in various industries. He made significant contributions not only to Halkalı Kağıt but also to the Turkish paper industry as a whole.
With a remarkably accurate foresight for the sustainability of the paper sector, Orhan Saral established the ORMUBAN paper collective company to manufacture corrugated cardboard, thereby transforming his vision into reality. This step marked the beginning of his industrial career. After a period of operation, he transferred his shares in this company and, in 1976, laid the foundations of SARGÜNOĞLU KAĞIT factory with two partners under its former name. In 1985, the company's name and legal form were changed to Halkalı Kağıt Karton San. Ve Tic. A.Ş.
Orhan SARAL, who assumed the role of Chairman of the Board of Directors of the company, continues to be an exemplary figure for us with his strong leadership, unwavering energy, passionate love and respect for nature and humanity. Despite his serious illness in the later years of his life, he fulfilled his duties with utmost dedication. Until his passing in July 2003, he played a key role in the development of the company, directed new projects, and advised us to follow in his footsteps.
He has left an indelible mark not only on the industry but also in the corporate world and our social environment with his contributions. As the Halkalı Kağıt family, we draw strength from our respect for our founder, and we are honored to continue preserving his vision and values. With our new investments, we aim to keep his memory alive for many years to come. We remember Orhan Saral with great respect and gratitude.
To ensure product quality that meets customer expectations and to increase the competence and skills of our employees, we obtained the ISO 9001 Quality Management System certification on November 8, 2005.
To efficiently use natural resources and energy, prevent pollution by using new or improved technologies in our products and production processes, raise awareness of environmental protection among our employees, customers, and suppliers, and comply with all environmental legislation related to environmental dimensions, we obtained the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certification on May 24, 2007, and the ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System certification on June 25, 2010.
