Literatur Kimya - About Us
Literatür Kimya founded in 2003 to manufacture thermoset molding compounds in the composite industry and continues its activities in Balıkesir Organized Industrial Zone on an area of 10.000 m2 with a closed area of 3.000 m2. (BMC: Bulk Molding Compound & SMC: Sheet Molding Compound, CF-SMC: Carbon Fibre SMC)
In the face of increasing demand with the developing sector, it also meets the finished product needs of its customers on a project basis and on contract basis by adding hydraulic presses and thermoset injection machines to its raw material production processes. Literatür Kimya, your reliable solution partner that lightens your production load with 12 hydraulic presses in a range from 80 tons to 1200 tons and 2 Thermoset Injections, is among the leading companies in the composite industry.
Literatür Kimya which prioritizes technology and quality in its investments, entered into thermoset injection molding production by including Krauss Maffei Injection Molding Machines in the molding track in 2015. Since than it started to serve the automotive and electrical sectors.
In 2016, it made a second SMC machine investment from Schmidt&Heinzmann in order to produce high quality SMC and started to serve the automotive sector with Class A SMC.
In 2019, Literatür Kimya constructed its new building using Literline which is made of SMC and the first product of Literatür Kimya patented in 2018. Literline is a new-era self-carrying modular system for construction, that can be installed without support, column, beam or profiles. Literline stands as a guiding light in building systems with its rapid, simple, and more robust assembly using gasketed and nut-bolt connections.
EN 45545 was introduced due to different fireproofing standards in European countries and the need for vehicles operated between countries to comply with a common standard. Literatür Kimya, which does not slow down in R&D studies in line with the needs of the sector, studied the SMC formulation that meets EN 45545 (Fire Protection on Railway Vehicles) standards in 2018 and succeeded.
In August 2019, Literatür Kimya made first trail production of CF-SMC (Carbon Fiber SMC) thermoset molding compound in Turkiye and now offering Epoxy Carbon Fiber SMC, Polyurethane Carbon Fiber SMC, and Vinyl Ester Carbon Fiber SMC raw materials to its customers.
In 2021, responding to increased customer demands and aiming to increase both capacity and efficiency, Literatür Kimya invested in its third SMC machine again with Schmidt & Heinzmann brand.
