YURTBAY SERAMIK CHOOSES A NEW COMPLETE LINE FROM ANCORA GROUP

Yurtbay Seramik has demonstrated its confidence in Ancora Group’s many years of experience in the design and construction of plant and machinery for end-of-line processing by choosing the Sassuolo-based group’s products for end-of-line treatment of polished porcelain tile.

One of the largest ceramic manufacturers in Turkey with an annual production capacity of almost 20,000,000 m2, Yurtbay has purchased a new complete high-productivity polishing and squaring line which will begin operation during the summer.

The new plant, consisting of an 8-head roughing machine, a 40 oscillating head polishing machine and a squaring machine for sizes from 300×300 mm through to 600×1200 mm, was fully designed and built in Italy at Ancora’s facility in Sassuolo.

“This new order not only confirms Ancora Group’s leadership role in designing and building plant and machinery for end-of-line processing but also sends out a positive message about the sector’s eagerly-awaited economic recovery and in particular about our presence in the Turkish market,” commented the Group’s Managing Director Fabio Corradini.
