Discover how Turkey’s casting industry doubled its EU market share, strengthened ties with Germany, and invested in sustainable production.
📈 Rapid Growth in Europe
According to TÜDÖKSAD, Turkey’s casting industry has doubled its share in EU production from 10% to 21% over the last decade. With a capacity of 5 million tonnes, Turkey is now Europe’s second-largest and the 7th largest globally.
🤝 Strong Ties with Germany
- Germany remains the primary export destination for Turkish foundries, especially in the automotive and machinery sectors.
- The production gap between Turkey and Germany is narrowing — in 2022, Turkey produced 3.1 million tonnes vs. Germany’s 3.9 million tonnes.
- Strategic acquisitions, such as Kutluk Group’s purchase of Teutoguss, have given Turkish companies a direct foothold in the German market.
🌱 Sustainability Investments
As reported by Ekonomi Gazetesi, Turkish foundries are investing heavily in green casting to align with the EU Green Deal:
- Carbon footprint reduction through renewable energy and I-REC certified electricity.
- Material recycling — e.g., Cevher Jant recycled 17,226 tonnes of aluminium scrap in 2024.
- Energy-efficient furnaces and waste sand reclamation systems.
🚀 Competitive Advantages for Turkish Foundries
- Cost–quality balance: Competitive pricing without compromising European quality standards.
- Flexibility: Ability to handle both high-volume and custom, high-value orders.
- Proximity: Shorter lead times compared to Asian suppliers.
