DEAR STAKEHOLDERS,
Today, the textile industry is evaluated not only by its ability to produce high-quality products, but also by the responsibility it bears toward future generations. The climate crisis facing our world, the increasing depletion of natural resources, and changing societal expectations are reshaping the way companies conduct business.
At Harput Tekstil, we regard this transformation not as an obligation, but as an important opportunity to build the future.
With this understanding, the “Textiles for Tomorrow” approach we have adopted is not merely a slogan; it is our corporate vision that guides all our activities. Because we believe that every step we take today shapes the world of tomorrow.
We implement our sustainability approach not only in our operations, but also in our product development activities. Through products developed with a textile-to-textile recycling approach in both our yarn and fabric production, we contribute to reintegrating waste into the value chain and supporting the circular economy. In addition, with our biodegradable yarn and fabric solutions, we aim to reduce the environmental impact of products at the end of their useful life. While offering sustainable alternatives to our customers through our innovative and environmentally friendly product portfolio, we also contribute to the transformation of the textile industry into a more responsible and circular structure.
We remain firmly committed to our goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050. Within this scope, thanks to the solar power plant investments we have made since 2022, we succeeded in increasing the share of green energy in our energy consumption to over 30% as of 2025.
We believe that our sustainability journey is made possible not only through technological investments, but also through the development of our human resources. With this understanding, through Harput Academy, which we launched in 2025, we support the development of our employees’ knowledge and competencies in sustainability and move forward together toward our shared goals.
Throughout 2025, we continued to address sustainability not merely as an element of our operations, but as a fundamental building block of our business model. Because we believe that the textile industry of the future will be built on the principles of transparency, circularity, innovation, and responsibility.
This report has been prepared to share the progress Harput Tekstil has made on its sustainability journey, along with its goals and vision for the future. It is also an indication of the shared value we create together with our customers, employees, business partners, and all our stakeholders.
We continue our efforts with the goal of becoming an organization that does not wait for the future, but shapes it.
I would like to thank all our colleagues, customers, business partners, and stakeholders who walk alongside us on this journey.
We use today’s production strength to build tomorrow’s sustainable textile approach.
Sincerely,
Sadi ETKESER
Chairman of the Board
