Egesil Kimya Sanayi
Egesil is a joint venture between Evonik (51%) and Ege Kimya (49%) established for the production of precipitated silica.
In October 2019, Egesil Kimya Sanayi has put a new precipitated silica manufacturing facility into operation at its site in Adapazari in North Türkiye. This increases the annual production capacity for precipitated silica at this site by 40,000 metric tons and created around 40 new jobs. The company has invested a sum in the low double-digit million euro range in the construction of these facilities.
The new plant in Adapazari enables the joint venture partners to also cater to their customers in Türkiye , Eastern Europe, and the Middle East with more regionally produced silicas using the short delivery channels to which their clients are accustomed.
