By gathering a team of experts that have the know-how, knowledge and experience of over 25 years in cold forging engineering and production – plus state of the art production line and machinery – Teknoform can provide quick and reliable production.
Teknoform focuses on special and challenging fasteners and cold formed parts, manufacturing on the latest, high technology Nedschroef machinery. It recently invested in its third Nedschroef 6 station machine, which has helped increase capacity by around 40%. The company also invested in some secondary operation machines in order to give quick responses to its customers.
Teknoform’s partnership with SMF Tools means it can provide quick and reliable production as well as fast delivery. The company recently establishing itself as a supplier to the automotive industry, passing the VW audit with an A grade for both 8.8 and 10.9 grades on the first attempt.
“Increasing production for the automotive industry during recent years has been a key aim for the business,” explains Teknoform. “We believe that new global OEMs investment into Turkey will accelerate our growth in the market and enable us to export to new countries and continents.”
Domestic sales currently account for 70% of Teknoform’s business. The most important export market is Europe, but the company is also looking to enter the US market. “Being based in Turkey means that we are very competitive and thanks to Turkish steel manufacturers that are focused on manufacturing raw material for the fastener sector, we will decrease dependency on importing wire,” says Teknoform. “On the other hand, high interest rates, expensive electricity and a high land prices, are the main challenges in front of the sector.”
“Our geographic positioning makes us the perfect partner to Europe ensuring a logistical advantage. It will be those businesses that are able to offer not only special and quality products but also those that are able to build a relationship with customers, and become ‘special’ in the eyes of customers, that will stand out from the crowd and succeed.”
