This is a story of progress...
Founded in 1935 by İş Bankası with the vision and signature of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, Şişecam was established to build Türkiye’s glass industry. Over the decades, we have grown from a local initiative into a global player in glass and chemicals.
As the only global company operating in all core areas of glass production, we are the global leader in glassware and chromium chemicals. We are among the top five producers in flat glass and glass packaging, and one of the top three producers of soda ash worldwide.
We operate across four continents and 14 countries, including Türkiye, Germany, Italy, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Russia, Georgia, Ukraine, Egypt, India, and the United States. We play a pioneering role in flat glass, glassware, glass packaging, chemicals, auto glass, glass fiber, mining, energy, and recycling industries. By placing innovation and technology at the core of our operations, we deliver our products to customers in over 150 countries through our robust supply chain.
We make a meaningful difference in our industries with 90 years of expertise, a skilled workforce, and the use of smart technologies. Supported by more than 24,000 employees, we are steadily advancing toward our goal of becoming one of the top three global producers in our core industries.
With our CareForNext strategy, we work to ensure the sustainability of the glass and chemicals industries from the perspectives of protecting the planet, empowering communities, and transforming lives in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
We are pursuing a better future through technology and innovation and we continue our story of progress together with our entire ecosystem
