Taren, is Establishing Cottonseed Delintation Facilities Worldwide
The company also serves as a seed processor to the cottonseed producers in the region with the Taren Tohum A.Ş. cottonseed delintation facility established in Urfa.
Providing comprehensive services and developing delintation technologies that increase cotton productivity and quality, Taren Engineering has achieved rapid growth since its establishment in 2017. Taren develops solutions in cottonseed production at the very beginning of the textile supply chain with the slogan ‘Let It Be Cotton!’ and has made improvements that will contribute to the sector. Taren Engineering, founded in Adana by Sercenk Kılıç, who has an extensive experience of 20 years in the seed sector, carries out important projects especially in textile markets where cotton is produced.
Sercenk Kılıç defines the delintation process as separating the cottonseed from the fibres, sliver and foreign substances, and said that they developed 100% domestic and patented delintation machines. Kılıç; “We aim to establish delintation facilities for companies in the global cotton and cottonseed industry and help the Turkish cotton industry increase its market share. We also offer R&D support in this regard. The technologies we develop and the services we offer contribute to the productivity increase of the entire textile industry, especially the cotton producers”.
Everywhere where cotton is produced is our potential market
Kılıç continued his words as follows; “Our focus is on textile manufacturers, seeders and spinners who plant their own fields and produce their own cotton. World cotton production in India, Pakistan, China, USA, Brazil, Turkey, Uzbekistan and African countries are prominent. All markets have potential for us. Under the management of Fırat Hınis, our International Sales and Marketing Director, we have achieved successful results in some serious cases we have carried out in some markets. We will share the details with the public soon”.
Explaining that they offer 50% price advantage to their customers compared to their competitors in the market, Kılıç stated that they provide uninterrupted after-sales service and spare parts supply. Kılıç informed that they carried out the first delinting process for 500 tons of cottonseed processing, depending on the agreement, after the installation of the facility, and that they provided job and training support to their partners.
Providing information about export markets, Taren Engineering International Sales and Marketing Director Fırat Hınis underlined that they have quickly started their global marketing efforts. Hınis announced that they established a representation office in the Okora-Punjab region of Pakistan after they established a representation office in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan. Stating that they are continuing their efforts to establish a representation and sales network in various other regions of the world where cotton is on the agenda, Hınis said; “As a matter of fact, we are in intense negotiations in Africa, I hope that we will introduce this technology to Africa soon. We closely follow all developments in cotton and cottonseed processing in the world. We will take part in important fairs and organizations after the global pandemic crisis”.
Turkey’s largest delintation facility is Taren Tohum A.Ş in Urfa
Referring to the Taren Tohum delintation facility they have established in Urfa, Sercenk Kılıç gave the following information; “Urfa and this region produces 40% of the total cotton in Turkey. However, there was no delintation facility to meet the needs of the region. Sending seeds outside the region created serious time loss, freight costs, and tracking difficulties. Taren Tohum, which started its activities, has a seasonal cottonseed processing capacity of 15 thousand tons. There are 7 delinters in our facility that we manufactured. With an installed capacity it is Turkey’s largest cottonseed delintation facility. We provide confidence and convenience to our partners with our experienced staff”.
