Purchasing · supplier qualification
Stainless strip, resistance wire, magnesium oxide and brass, plus the terminals, beads, fittings and packaging behind an output of 20 million heating elements a year.
We look for suppliers who hold a specification, document it and can support OEM programmes in volume. This page sets out what we buy, what we require and how to apply.
Stainless strip for our tube mill
What we buy
Direct materials go into every element and carry the strictest requirements. Indirect materials keep our rolling, filling and annealing lines running.

Requirements
Not every criterion applies to every category – a packaging supplier is not asked for an EN 10204 3.1 certificate. Every material that ends up in a heating element, however, must be fully documented.
Our customers’ auditors trace each element back to its inputs, and we inspect every incoming material lot before it reaches the line.
Incoming inspection
| Requirement | What we expect |
|---|---|
| Quality management | ISO 9001 certification preferred; otherwise a documented, auditable quality system with calibration records and corrective-action handling. |
| Material certificates | EN 10204 type 3.1 with every strip, tube and wire delivery; certificate of analysis with every MgO lot – values against the agreed specification. |
| Traceability | Heat or batch number on every packaging unit, matching the certificate – so each element can be traced back to its raw-material lot. |
| Chemical compliance | RoHS (2011/65/EU as amended by (EU) 2015/863) and REACH SVHC declarations backed by accredited-laboratory test reports, renewed when the candidate list or the material changes. |
| Initial samples (PPAP-style) | Dimensional report against the drawing, material certificate, test results, process flow and control plan. Series deliveries start only after written sample approval. |
| Change control | No change of material source, process, sub-supplier or production site without prior written notice and, where required, re-qualification. |
| Delivery | On-time delivery against confirmed dates, correct quantities and labelling; capacity for call-off schedules and changing forecasts. |
| Conflict minerals | Origin statement for tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold where relevant (brass alloys, solders, plating), following the OECD due-diligence guidance. |
| Environment and safety | Compliance with environmental and occupational safety law; Energy and emission data for our carbon-footprint work. |
| Business ethics | No child, forced or bonded labour (ILO core conventions); no bribes, kickbacks or improper gifts – our buyers accept nothing beyond token value; drawings, specifications and volumes stay confidential under NDA. |
Qualification process
Approval is per item, not per company: a new grade or dimension goes through sample qualification and trial lots again.
Company profile, product range, certificates and markets served – by e-mail to purchasing.
Certificates, RoHS/REACH declarations, a specimen 3.1 certificate and your change-control procedure. Gaps are discussed before samples.
Laboratory tests plus a process trial: strip welded and rolled, wire coiled and filled, MgO compacted and measured at temperature.
Limited production lots under tightened incoming inspection and process monitoring.
Entered in our ERP as approved for the specific material and specification.
Scored on quality (PPM, complaints), delivery, documentation, responsiveness and total cost.
How to apply
Attach your company presentation, quality certificates and – for materials – a typical inspection certificate and your RoHS/REACH declaration. Please do not send price lists before the document review: we request quotations for defined specifications.
Purchasing
Raw materials, components, packaging and services – your first address as a supplier.
Import purchasing
Materials and components shipped from abroad, and the import documentation that goes with them.
Factory and deliveries
Deliveries go to the plant unless otherwise agreed.
You can also use the contact form with the subject “Supplier application / Purchasing”. Supplier contact data is processed under the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law – see our KVKK notice.
Send your company profile and certificates to purchasing. We review your documents first, then request quotations for the specifications we need.
