For industrial, construction, and agricultural buyers, supply reliability depends on more than product availability. What matters is access to materials with the right specifications, stable quantities, and a supply model that supports ongoing operations without unnecessary disruption.
At Qiwaa Advance, our agency with Vişne Madencilik helps us provide that level of organized supply to the Syrian market. Through this partnership, we connect institutional buyers in Syria to a major Turkish producer of quicklime, hydrated lime, and related mineral products, through a more structured commercial channel designed for industrial demand.
Who Is Vişne Madencilik and Why Does It Matter in Syria?
Vişne Madencilik is a Turkish mining and industrial company founded in 1952 in Bergama, İzmir. Over time, it grew into a major lime producer within Öztüre Holding while retaining its original name and production lines.
Today, the company operates through three main plants in Adana and Kahramanmaraş, with combined production capacity exceeding 3,250 tons per day. This scale gives the company the ability to serve large and recurring orders, which is especially important for sectors that depend on regular supply rather than occasional purchasing.
Vişne Madencilik also operates under an integrated management system supported by multiple ISO certifications, with strong production, storage, and land-shipping capabilities. For Qiwaa Advance, this means introducing to the Syrian market a supplier with both industrial scale and institutional maturity.
Plants and Production Capacity
Vişne Madencilik’s production network is one of its main strengths, giving the company the capacity to support different product lines and large supply volumes.
1. Çelemli Plant – Adana
The Çelemli plant was established in 2010 within Öztüre Group in the Yüreğir district of Adana. It began with a capacity of 250 tons per day and later expanded to 1,250 tons per day across five kilns, making it one of the highest-capacity quicklime plants at a single site in Türkiye.
2. Narlı Plant – Kahramanmaraş
The Narlı plant operates in the Pazarcık district of Kahramanmaraş. It also began at 250 tons per day and later expanded to 1,000 tons per day. The plant produces lime powder, granular lime, and lump lime, supported by separate storage silos for each size, finished-product silos, and raw stock capacity that strengthens supply continuity.
3. Çukurova Plant – Adana
The Çukurova plant is located in the Ceyhan area of Adana and includes quarrying, crushing, screening, lime hydration, and packaging operations. Its raw material is distinguished by a CaCO3 content of not less than 97%, which supports the production of high-purity lime products for demanding applications.
What Products Can Our Clients Access Through Vişne Madencilik?
Through our agency with Vişne Madencilik, industrial and institutional buyers in Syria can access five main product lines, each serving different operational needs across construction, industry, and agriculture.
1. Quicklime – Calcium Oxide (CaO)
Quicklime is produced by calcining high-purity limestone at temperatures between 900°C and 1100°C.
It is available in four sizes:
- Powder: 0–3 mm
- Granular: 3–15 mm
- Lump: 15–55 mm
- Micronized: CL90 Q
Its applications include:
- Iron and steel production, especially desulfurization and dephosphorization
- Industrial chemicals
- Paper manufacturing
- Construction materials such as autoclaved aerated concrete and sand-lime bricks
- Sludge treatment
- Agriculture
For buyers in Syria, quicklime is one of the most important core raw materials in industrial and construction processes that require consistent quality and dependable supply.
2. Hydrated Lime – Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂)
Hydrated lime is produced through the reaction of quicklime with water.
It is available in two grades:
- SLAKED CL80 S for construction use
- SLAKED CL90 S for industrial use
Its applications include:
- Drinking water and wastewater treatment
- Flue gas treatment, including sulfur dioxide and chlorine removal
- Chemical industries
- Sugar and animal feed industries
- Soil stabilization in roads
- Hazardous waste conditioning
- Construction applications such as plaster and mortar
This makes hydrated lime particularly relevant for buyers who need a material with broad industrial and environmental applications, supported by reliable technical specifications.
3. Aggregate
Vişne Madencilik also produces aggregate as a supporting mineral product used in preparatory and construction works.
4. Humidity Absorbent – VIKALO
VIKALO is a specialized product used for moisture control in industrial environments and warehouses, making it relevant for facilities that need humidity management as part of storage or production conditions.
5. Natural Calcium Carbonate – VIKARB
VIKARB is a high-purity natural mineral used in a wide range of industries, including:
- Plastics
- Paint
- Paper
- Rubber
This expands the value of the partnership beyond lime products alone and gives buyers access to a broader mineral supply range through one organized channel.
Shipping Formats and Supply Flexibility
Vişne Madencilik ships its products in multiple formats to suit different operational needs, including:
- Bags
- Big bags
- Silo trucks for powdered material
- Bulk shipments
For Qiwaa Advance, this matters because packaging and shipping flexibility are essential when serving industrial buyers with different handling systems, storage methods, and production requirements.
Quality Standards and Certifications
Vişne Madencilik operates under an integrated management system and holds several officially declared certifications, including:
- ISO 9001:2015 – Quality Management System
- ISO 14001:2015 – Environmental Management System
- ISO 45001:2018 – Occupational Health and Safety Management System
- EN 459-1:2010 – European standard for building lime
These certifications show that the company does not focus only on product quality, but also on environmental management, worker safety, and documented operational control. For institutional buyers in Syria, this adds an important layer of confidence when evaluating a long-term supply source.
Why does Vişne Madencilik Stands Out?
Long Track Record and Industrial Experience
More than seven decades in lime production give Vişne Madencilik strong accumulated expertise in raw materials, production control, and end-product quality. Its development from a local producer into a large company within Öztüre Holding reflects a level of experience that matters in an industrial supply relationship.
Large Production Capacity
With three plants and combined capacity exceeding 3,250 tons per day, the company can support large and repeated orders without major interruption. This is especially important for buyers who need regular volumes and predictable supply.
Variety in Product Sizes and Shipping Formats
The availability of multiple product sizes and shipping formats allows easier integration with different industrial processes and production lines. Buyers are not limited to one format or one handling method.
Compliance with European Standards
Compliance with EN 459-1:2010 means that Vişne Madencilik’s building lime meets recognized European requirements. This is especially relevant for projects that need standardized materials, including construction and reconstruction works.
How does These Products Support the Syrian Market?
Vişne Madencilik’s products are relevant to the Syrian market because they serve sectors that are either already active or expected to expand further in the coming years.
1. Construction and Reconstruction
Lime materials are used in sand-lime bricks, aerated concrete, plaster, and mortar. With expected growth in construction and reconstruction activity, lime remains a core industrial input. Through Qiwaa Advance, buyers gain access to material with verified specifications and recognized standards.
2. Iron and Steel Industry
Steel plants need quicklime for removing sulfur, phosphorus, and silica from molten steel. This sector requires high and regular consumption volumes, making reliable production capacity a critical factor.
3. Water Treatment
Hydrated lime is widely used in drinking water and wastewater treatment to raise pH, remove heavy metals, and support disinfection processes. This makes it highly relevant to water treatment operations that depend on regular supply of high-purity material.
4. Food Industries
Hydrated lime is used in sugar production as a pH regulator and impurity remover, and also in poultry feed. As food-sector activity resumes, reliable material sourcing becomes increasingly important.
5. Agriculture
Lime is used to adjust soil pH and improve soil characteristics, making it a regular seasonal input in intensive agriculture. Given the importance of agriculture in Syria, this sector represents a meaningful area of demand.
