Dear Stakeholders,

As the whole world, we are passing through unusual times. First of all, the covid-19 pandemic that started at the end of 2019, which affected all humanity, and the following global economic contraction, and finally, the sad war between Russia and Ukraine, which started at the beginning of this year in our neighboring geography. Unfortunately, all that happened has caused depressing times, troubles and irreversible losses to humanity and it continues to do so.

As Nurol Teknoloji, our duty in is; to create a world where "the good ones win" for humanity, to protect it and to keep all humanity live in peace.

In this period that violence and terrorism continue to increase in the world and especially in our geography, we offer the lightest ballistic solutions to compete and provide superiority in the field against the highest threats that Turkish security forces and the security forces of friendly countries may encounter. We are proud and honored to serve the goal of the ‘national defense industry’ with domestic raw materials and our own recipes in all these works.

We have delivered and continue to deliver a large number of different ballistic protective needs of our police forces and armed forces. We would like to produce more added value in every field that is needed. Apart from that, we export our ballistic protective products to NATO countries and other friendly countries on time. By this time, we have continued to develop new materials to protect the needy all over the world against the developing and increasing threats, and we will continue our efforts in the same way and increase our exports even more.

As the world's leading manufacturer of ballistic ceramics and ballistic protective systems, our participation in foreign sector fairs, where we demonstrate our capabilities, continued in the past months.

In this context, we participated in the MSPO Exhibition / Poland in September, which is one of the most important defense fairs in Europe and where Turkey is also the 'Leading Country'. At this exhibition, we have introduced our ballistic protective products that we have successfully produced at the highest quality and that have proven themselves in the battlefields, to the President of Poland Mr. Andrzej Duda and to other senior officials of many foreign countries.

I wish you a pleasant reading in this last issue of the year 2022 and I would like to inform you about our participations in foreign sector exhibitions where we demonstrate our capabilities as the world's leading ballistic ceramics and protective systems manufacturer.

One of these exhibitions is INDO DEFENCE 2022 Defense Fair, which we will participate in Indonesia on 2-5.November.2022. Another is IDEAS 2022 Defense Fair, which we will participate in friendly country Pakistan on 15-18.November.2022.

WE PROVIDE THE HIGHEST BALLISTIC PROTECTION WITH THE LIGHTEST SOLUTIONS

 

Following the mitigation of the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic all over the world, the year is coming to an end in which tensions between countries have increased considerably and conflicts have been experienced. Due to the fact that such conflicts have not been experienced for a long time, the deficiencies and needs of the countries in personnel protective equipment have emerged. As Nurol Teknoloji, we have met the demands of new products with different protection requirements from Europe and Asia very quickly, both with our off-the-shelf solutions and with the advantage of producing our own ballistic ceramics using alternative materials in the world.

We continue to make investments in new equipment and new factory campus in order to respond all kinds of demands from our customers faster and with higher quality. By increasing our production capacity, thanks to our investments to be completed in the first quarter of 2023, we will be delivering faster and more effective products to our customers.

As the Personnel Armor solutions Research and Development department, we continue to reduce the weight of our existing products by making process and material improvements, and to expand our product range by making innovative product designs.

 
 

 

Within the scope of the mitigation efforts, the weight of the ballistic breastplate was reduced below 1000 g by using the most innovative ballistic products against the ammunition used with long-barreled weapons called NIJ 0101.06 Level 3.

Within the scope of innovative products;

  • Verifications were made with specially formed chest plate and ballistic vest designs for female law enforcement personnel.
  • In order to increase the mobility in ballistic shields, products that enable entering into narrower areas with ballistic shields can be produced by using add-on panels to increase the level of protection and by folding to reduce the surface area.
  • • Finally, the production of dog protective ballistic vests has started in order to protect K9 dogs, which are the most loyal assistants of our law enforcement officers in operations, against ballistic threats and explosions.

As Nurol Teknoloji, we will be proud to offer you the best and newest products in 2023 with the value that we place on innovation.

Best regards.

INDISPENSABLE LINK OF PRODUCTION: PURCHASING

 

 

With the heavy responsibility of protecting human, PROCUREMENT, which is “the most important key actor of the Supply Chain”, puts forth all its efforts for Nurol Teknoloji to produce high quality products and to support Research and Development activities.

Procurement; is working hard to provide the materials needed by the Research and Development activities of the production, which are constantly changing and becoming widespread, with high quality and alternatives, in a short time. These studies; include being in close and continuous communication with the planning and logistics units, which are the other actors of the supply chain. It also covers the improvement of procurement processes. Performance, quality and flexibility are aimed in the studies, and the methods that have proven themselves and standardized in production are included in the process and their certification and inspection are carried out. As an example, we can show AS 9100 standardization processes. AS9100, which is the quality and risk management standard for the aviation industry, includes benefits such as reducing product and service faults, fatal occupational accidents and risks, as well as obtaining commercial licenses. AS 9100 also puts forth a concerted effort to set a single standard across the global aerospace manufacturing and supply chain.

 

 

 

 

In addition, various performance evaluation activities are carried out in order to increase the competency of the procurement personnel. In these activities, it is observed that people highlight and use their talents and their continuous development is supported.

Furthermore, procurement unit communicates and works closely with the suppliers. In these works, it supports the suppliers to update themselves according to the changing needs and to follow the technological changes. Depending on the diversity of production, it is aimed to extend the portfolio of suppliers and to ensure a near-perfect functioning in the studies for extending the portfolio.

Best regards.
