Dear Stakeholders,

We are living in an era of material transformation. Lighter, more sustainable, stronger, and more accessible materials are accompanying the transformation of the automotive, tire, and aviation industries. The increasing demand for sustainable and technologically advanced materials is transforming the way we do business, our products, and our value chain. As Kordsa, we are shaping and leading this transformation centered around material technologies.

Today, as a company with two R&D centers and three technical centers, we are part of a global innovation network; we produce not only products but also sustainable value. From tire reinforcement to aviation and automotive, we develop lighter, stronger, and more environmentally friendly solutions across a wide range of applications.

The way to build a secure future lies in to embracing sustainability as a core business model, making digitalization the key to value creation, and recognizing diversity and inclusion as strategic sources of strength. At Kordsa, with this approach, we combine our engineering strength and culture of innovation to contribute to our core businesses of tire and composite technologies. As a member of the Sabancı Group, we embrace the promise of “Uniting Türkiye and the World, for a sustainable life” in every step we take. With this understanding, we aim to create long-term impact for our employees, customers, business partners, shareholders, and the communities in which we operate.

In line with Kordsa’s mission of “Reinforcing Life,” we maintain our excitement and commitment to building a smarter, more agile, and more inclusive future. As we design the future together, we will continue to deepen this mission with every step we take.

With over 50 years of experience and strong partnerships, Kordsa will continue to create value for its stakeholders in the next 50 years. I extend my sincere thanks to all our employees, customers and business partners who share our vision, and shareholders who walk the path with us.

Sincerely,

Ergun Hepvar
