DEAR VALUED STAKEHOLDERS,
Today, the textile industry is being evaluated not only for producing quality products, but also for the responsibility it carries toward future generations. The climate crisis facing our world, the increasing scarcity of natural resources, and shifting societal expectations are reshaping the way companies do business.
At Harput Tekstil, we see this transformation not as an obligation, but as a significant opportunity to build the future.
Our "Textiles for Tomorrow" approach, adopted with this understanding, is not merely a slogan — it is the corporate vision that guides all of our activities. Because we believe that every step we take today shapes the world of tomorrow.
We bring our sustainability approach to life not only in our operations but also in our product development efforts. Through the products we develop in both yarn and fabric production based on the principle of textile-to-textile recycling, we contribute to reintroducing 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 life cycle. Through our innovative and eco-friendly product portfolio, we offer our customers sustainable alternatives while contributing to the transformation of the textile industry into a more responsible and circular structure.
We continue to pursue our goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050 with determination. In this context, thanks to the solar power plant investments we have made since 2022, we succeeded in raising 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 Akademi, which we launched in 2025, we support the development of our employees' knowledge and competencies in the field of sustainability, moving forward together toward our shared goals.
Throughout 2025, we continued to treat sustainability not merely as a component 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, goals, and future vision of Harput Tekstil's sustainability journey. It also serves as an indicator of the shared value we create together with our customers, employees, business partners, and all our stakeholders.
We continue our work with the goal of being an organization that shapes the future, rather than waiting for it.
I would like to thank all my colleagues, customers, business partners, and stakeholders who walk this journey with us.
We are using today's production power to build tomorrow's sustainable textile approach.
Sincerely,
Sadi ETKESER
Chairman of the Board
