Activity in Turkey
Activity overview
The verified industrial developments in Turkey comprise machinery integration, operational start-ups, and corporate financing across packaging converters. In Istanbul, Sade Ofset integrated prepress and printing operations by adopting HEIDELBERG's Prinect platform and installing a Speedmaster CX 104, replacing two older machines. In Eskişehir, Dunapack Packaging launched a high-speed 2.8m BHS corrugator to increase production capacity.
In parallel, cross-border corporate financing is supporting converting capacity. Van de Velde Packaging secured a €130M capital structure with Kartesia, allocating funds toward a €15M expansion program spanning facilities in Turkey and Poland to meet fiber packaging demands.

Connected developments
Equipment investments across Turkish packaging conversion facilities
Sade Ofset installed a Speedmaster CX 104 in Istanbul while Dunapack Packaging launched a 2.8m BHS corrugator in Eskişehir. Both cases demonstrate capital expenditure on manufacturing hardware within Turkish converting plants; however, the evidence does not indicate any operational links, supplier commonality, or shared customer bases between the two firms.
Capital allocations directed toward fiber and corrugated converting
Van de Velde Packaging secured funds with Kartesia for a multi-country expansion including Turkey, while Dunapack Packaging added corrugator capacity in Eskişehir. Both developments reflect financial allocations directed toward fiber-based packaging capacity in the country, but the records do not establish identical product formats, shared geographical markets, or concurrent timing of actual construction.
Activity analysis
The reported industrial changes in Turkey reflect operational modernizations across both folding carton or label printing and corrugated board manufacturing. Sade Ofset consolidated its workflow onto a single offset press line in Istanbul, while Dunapack Packaging added heavy converting equipment with a 2.8m BHS corrugator in Eskişehir. Each development represents specific facility-level adjustments in machinery rather than an aggregated national production trend.
- Van de Velde Packaging secures capital for Turkey and Poland expansion
- Dunapack Packaging starts up 2.8m BHS corrugator in Eskişehir
- Sade Ofset integrates operations with Speedmaster CX 104 in Istanbul
Capital allocations also direct resources toward industrial capacity, as illustrated by Van de Velde Packaging's financing through Kartesia for planned expansion in Turkey and Poland. Together, the documented cases detail concrete plant investments and equipment commissioning without establishing wider industry shifts or shared corporate strategies across the individual converters.
