Our corporate values better illustrate our philosophy:
Trusted for over four decades, Sınai Kimya’s household insecticides effectively protect from nuisance and disease-bearing insects. Our niche odor eliminator products tackle toughest odors with a proven long-lasting efficacy and our environmentally friendly, non-toxic range of household cleaners formulated with natural ingredients ensures a clean and healthy home that respects our planet’s resources.
Our customers have always been at the center of our activities. Shaped by a compassionate devotion to finding solutions to their needs, our experience allows us to understand their desires and aspirations. As a result, we continuously improve our products and services to meet their changing demands.
As a fundamental requirement in doing that, we comply fully with current norms and regulations that are associated with our business activities. All of our household insecticide range is in line with and compliant to the E.U. Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR), one of the most comprehensive regulations in place, requiring in-depth product assessments and testing to ensure the well-being of customers and community.
We remain committed to creating positive change for our people and community, and doing this ethically and responsibly.
Our quest to create the best products requires continuous development to meet changing consumer expectations and to adapt to evolving technology.
In 2009, we moved our production facility to the organized industrial zone of BOSB, right next to a logistics hub, reducing the carbon footprint of our production. This industrial zone we are located in prioritizes sustainability and has set forth high-level environmental requirements which are continuously being monitored.
For Sınai Kimya, employee health & wellness and work safety are of paramount importance. We provide continuous education and on-site training for our employees, and implement equipment validations and inspections to ensure safe production. We are glad to say, over the past seven years, there have been no workplace accidents at our facilities thanks to these efforts.
Our production lines are mostly automated to meet work safety requirements, minimize human contact and enable standardized output. Sınai Kimya prioritizes vertically integrated in-house production for greater flexibility and control at every step. This grants us some essential capabilities such as manufacturing of specific intermediate products including injection molded parts, and assembly of electric devices. Our quality control department performs rigorous checks while implementing a system of traceability and flow control.
Our R&D department is in charge of product development in our fully-equipped laboratory. Leveraging the power of science and design, we collaborate with leading universities, independent laboratories, experts and designers to develop innovative products that better serve the needs of our customers.
The long-established partnerships we have formed with leading suppliers from all around the world provide us with the best ingredients and allow us early access to their innovations ensuring our continuous development.
Continuous development is our passion, and it’s encrypted in our DNA.
The continuation of Earth’s suitability as a habitat for human and animal life depends widely on how well we incorporate sustainability in our activities. The decade we live in is a turning point and perhaps a last chance before we cross the Nine Planetary Boundaries as defined by Stockholm Resilience Center.
The critical importance of sustainability within this framework is greatly highlighted by NGOs, governments and large enterprises. The transition into a more sustainable future can be achieved by participation at all levels, including small enterprises, communities and individuals.
The current Covid-19 pandemic has proven how vulnerable and interconnected humans are. Our man-made borders have virtually no effect in protecting us against an act of nature. Having witnessed this fact first-hand, we can no longer afford to forge ahead an environmental disaster endangering life on the planet.
We believe that the success of our company, our brands and our products depend on how well we implement practices of sustainability. This is our number-one strategic priority. Our achievement of this goal, naturally, depends on the participation of our employees and stakeholders. To raise awareness on the issue of sustainable practices, we encourage their collaboration by providing regular training sessions and seminars.
Our commitment to sustainability becomes vital especially in the development of new products. We formulate several of our insecticides without any ecotoxicity hazard profile. We created a range of certified natural detergents with no environmental impact in partnership with Ecocert®. These are huge steps forward not only for us, but also for the market we operate in.
Sınai Kimya has set the goal of sustainable material sourcing and to participate in a circular economy. By the year 2030:
- All our plastic material will be recyclable or bioplastic with the ultimate priority to be biodegradable.
- Whenever possible, chemical raw materials will be derived from renewable sources respecting biodiversity.
- In our packaging, we will promote the use of reusable and refillable solutions.
Our environmental policy sets the guiding principles in the execution of our business activity in production and workplace. In line with the policy, in 2019, 16% of our energy consumption comes from renewable energy. In the first half of 2020 the share of renewable energy has increased to 18%. By the end of this decade, we are confident that the majority of our energy consumption will be from renewable sources. We strive to reduce our CO2 emission, and upgrade our equipment with those providing efficiency in order to reach the carbon neutrality frontier.
Our participation in the Zero Waste Initiative has led us to mitigate waste formation, to separate waste at source and reduce our waste. Our water management system monitors waste water with an in-line sampler ensuring that it is reusable after treatment.
A fundamental principle of our business is to encourage diversity and create equal opportunity. In this regard, we also take responsibility to promote social sustainability, a practice that is as important as the environmental aspect of sustainability itself. Our participation in the local labor association’s on-the-job training program helps young people gain work experience and flourish in the industry they want to work in. We are glad that some of our team members have joined our company through this program and are currently working with us to achieve our common goals.
We are committed to promoting sustainable living for all for a better future.
