Strategic Product Portfolio
Bottle-Grade PET Resin (Polyethylene Terephthalate)
We provide high-purity, thermoplastic polyester resins optimised for the global beverage and packaging industries. Our sourcing focuses on high-capacity manufacturing sites utilising state-of-the-art continuous polymerisation technology.
Standard Grades: IV 0.78 – 0.84 dL/g (ASTM D4603).
Applications: Carbonated Soft Drinks (CSD), Mineral Water, Edible Oils, and APET Sheet extrusion.
Quality Assurance: All batches undergo third-party laboratory verification (SGS/Intertek) at the point of origin and transit hubs.
Packaging: 1,100 kg heavy-duty PP big bags with moisture-barrier liners to ensure product integrity. Customised packaging solutions are possible.
Polyolefins & Commodity Thermoplastics
Direct offtake arrangements for high-volume industrial applications:
Polypropylene (PP): Homopolymer and Random Copolymer grades for injection molding and fiber production.
Polyethylene (HDPE/LDPE): Pipe, Film, and Blow-molding grades sourced from integrated Eurasian refinery complexes.
Supply Chain & Global Logistics
The Mediterranean Transit Hub
Leveraging our strategic presence in Istanbul, Turkey, we mitigate logistical bottlenecks by utilising bonded warehouse facilities at major ports (Ambarlı/Haydarpaşa).
This allows for:
Strategic Consolidation: Cross-docking and repackaging services to meet specific client labelling requirements and relevant customs regulations.
Just-In-Time (JIT) Delivery: Strategic buffering of stock to ensure 48-hour delivery windows to manufacturing zones.
Route Optimisation: Integrated rail and sea-freight corridors utilising Black Sea and Mediterranean shipping lanes.
