Kaleseramik: A Stronghold of Ceramics for 69 Years
A pioneer in establishing Türkiye’s ceramics industry, Kaleseramik has created value for 69 years, producing on this land and reinvesting what it earns here back into its future.
Kaleseramik, a pioneer in the establishment and development of Türkiye’s ceramics industry, was founded in 1956 by the late İbrahim Bodur, Founder and Honorary Chair of Kale Group. In 1957, the foundations of Çanakkale Seramik Fabrikaları were laid as Türkiye’s first ceramic tile manufacturer.
In 2000, Çanakkale Seramik Fabrikaları A.Ş. and Kalebodur Seramik Sanayi A.Ş. united under one roof and continued their journey as “Kaleseramik Çanakkale Kalebodur Seramik Sanayi A.Ş.”
Since its establishment, Kaleseramik has introduced industry firsts through sustainable production technologies and an innovative approach. Today, its portfolio includes strong brands such as Çanakkale Seramik, which creates stylish spaces with quality products for those seeking a distinctive aesthetic; Kalebodur, which reflects its deep brand heritage in its product range and advances both the industry and architectural culture through innovation; Kalesinterflex, which takes ceramic surfaces beyond conventional applications with large formats and exceptional design possibilities; Kale Banyo, which brings a modern perspective to bathroom design with products that respect the environment and human health; and T-One, the innovative face of living spaces, which transforms time in the kitchen into a unique experience.
Kaleseramik manufactures at four locations: Çan and Semedeli in Çanakkale, Yerköy in Yozgat and Bandırma in Balıkesir. With an annual production capacity of 56 million square metres, it is Türkiye’s largest, Europe’s fifth-largest and the world’s twenty-fifth-largest manufacturer of ceramic surface materials.
Leading its industry with more than 4,500 product varieties across ceramic tiles, ceramic sanitary ware, faucets and bathroom furniture, Kaleseramik introduces around 200 new product varieties each year. In addition to its domestic market, the company reaches customers in 86 countries.
Continuing to invest in its journey as a global brand, Kaleseramik strengthened its international position in large-format porcelain slabs, the future of ceramics, with its third Kalesinterflex Porcelain Slab production line. Commissioned in 2023, the line has an annual production capacity of 1.5 million square metres.
Ranked 168th in the Istanbul Chamber of Industry’s list of Türkiye’s Top 500 Industrial Enterprises announced in 2023, Kaleseramik offered 21.25% of its shares to the public and began trading on Borsa Istanbul on 27 July 2023, in line with its domestic and international growth objectives.
As a global representative of Türkiye’s ceramics industry, Kaleseramik has been producing for a better world since its foundation. It continues to be a driving force for the country’s sector in the second century of the Republic.
