Through the years, Kordsa becoming the market leader in Turkey has also achieved a leading position in global markets by a great know-how on reinforcement materials and processes, its market leadership, strong R&D practices, open innovative approach and strategic perspective in the tire reinforcement industry.

Kordsa has been globally recognized as “The Reinforcer” thanks to its technology and market leadership, strong global footprint and 49 years of experience in the reinforcement technologies.

In this cooperative model, which will be a pioneer in Turkey, Kordsa implements and conducts the “open innovation” concept.
