Turkish Casting Industry: Rising Power in the European Market


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.
