Ege Yıldız
Ege Yıldız is Mazhar Zorlu Holding’s plastic-pipe brand at İzmir AOSB, selling drip and sprinkler pipes in its agriculture range.
About
In 1959, when even importing plastic resin was difficult in Turkey, Mazhar Zorlu founded what became Ege Yıldız and Egeplast. He had started in contracting in İzmir (Piyale factory, Varyant Road) before entering plastics via pharmaceutical tubes and housewares, then set up Ege Yıldız Plastik Pazarlama ve Sanayi A.Ş. to make plastic pipe, fittings and related products.
In 1960 the company began producing building and agricultural irrigation pipes and fittings. After Petkim opened in 1965, feedstock supply improved. In 1973 Egeplast was formed for production; Ege Yıldız kept domestic sales and marketing through dealers and project channels. Egeplast now runs the 80,000 m² mill (55,000 m² indoor) in İzmir Atatürk OSB.
