ABOUT OYKA PAPER PACKING

OYAK's access to the paper industry started by the production of multilayer heavy-duty kraft sacks within the body of OYKA Paper Packing Industry and Trade Inc. that was in service under the umbrella of the OYAK Group. As the important milestones of the subject are listed below OYKA was a paper processing company until 2003 and became a paper producing company as of this date by the purchase of SEKA Çaycuma Factory.

İPaper, one of the most important necessities of humanity has been in use for thousands of years. Paper, in the sense we use today, was discovered by the Chinese in 105 AD and came to Europe after almost a thousand years in the 12th century. The technology that developed throughout centuries created the opportunity for high quantity production and the first modern factory in Turkey started production in 1936.

Almost all the nations with developed and rich forestry resources who understood the importance of paper succeeded to build up a place for themselves at the top of the world paper industry with the rational studies they performed. Among these USA, China, Japan, Germany and England occupy the front seats. The developing countries regard integrated paper production plants as the criterion for development.

Today, in the world 400 million tons of annual paper production is made in over 10 thousand production facilities by 3 million employees. This creates a volume of trade worth 500 billion dollars.

In the energy concentrated paper sector the raw material is of utmost importance, following the competition in 1991 and with the effect of globalisation, company unifications and purchases came to the agenda, and few companies became dominant in production.
