Our History
In 2006, EST has started to offer services to coating industry with Dry Film Lubricant applications. “Anti-Friction Coating” and other applications regarding different needs of Molykote brand started to be applied in our facilities. These applications are supported by technical data sheets of the products and overseas workshops. One expert, two operators, and one assistant personnel was working in 2006.
In 2007, long term agreements were made with Dry Film Lubricant customers. Potential customers were targeted by Endustri Teknik personnel and supported by workshops, demonstrations and visual aids. One expert, three operators, and two assistant personnel was working in 2007.
In 2008, appropriate surface preparation requirements have arisen, therefore sanding machine setup and phosphate coating tanks are installed in the facility. The number of personnel reached 10. Wet paint activities started that year.
In 2009, quality improvements are made and certified by the ISO 9001 Quality Management System. Hook conveyor system installed to ground floor, belt conveyor system to the second floor in addition to the Coating facility which is located at the ground floor.
In 2010, conveyor systems became active. Mass applications are started for automotive, machine manufacturing and piston manufacturers in the area of Dry Film Lubricant and Wet Paint processes. Alodine Chromate Conversion and Passivation coating operations started. Trademark registration completed for “TECHNOCOAT” Dry Film Lubricant applications. The number of total chemical processes reached six that year. Laboratory installation is completed to calculate/measure coating quality performances. Salt Test equipment purchased and measurements for corrosion abilities of the coatings started. Aselsan decided to work with Endustri Teknik in the area of Dry Film Lubricant coating and made a joint procedure study. This procedure made these products to be used in many new designs possible. In this way operating with Defense Industry started. In the same year, EST got approval of quality from Roketsan and started to work with MKEK.

The fairs and conference organizations we planned in our country and abroad were postponed to a year later due to the Pandemic. For this reason, our communication with our customers continued with online calls. While combating the epidemic, our responsibilities on Occupational Health and Environmental Safety have increased, and urgent actions have been taken in our facility on hygiene measures, virus protection and ventilation. In the spring and summer months, our production intensity decreased by 30% due to the decrease in the jobs of Defense and other industries. In this period, we tried to make the maximum contribution to the fight against the epidemic by making surface coatings of respiratory devices produced by ASELSAN.
In November, we were able to obtain an Approved Supplier Certificate from the General Directorate of Military Factories of the Ministry of National Defense. We had to postpone the Canias production module due to a limited year of face-to-face training. At the end of the year, we were entitled to state support from the Kobigel-Kobi development support program from Kosgep for strengthening the technological infrastructure by integrating automation in production. “
