About
Established in 1980, Kıvanç Group continues its activities in 3 divisions; Safety, Engineering and Mining.
Besides, AKATEK (a Kıvanç Group company), is a technical yarn & fabric manufacturer serving to heat & flame protective garment manufacturers. At our ring spinning mill in Antalya Organized Industrial Zone with a capacity of 10,800 spindles, mostly flame-resistant technical yarns are produced with an annual capacity of 1,000 tons; and 1.5 million meters of technical fabric are produced annually on our 12 high technology weaving looms. The fabric used in the suit of Türkiye’s first astronaut, Alper Gezeravcı, was proudly manufactured by Akatek.
In Safety Division, personal protective clothing against heat and flame, static discharges, arc flashes, molten metals, welding spatters and chainsaw are produced.
At our Sinop factory, we manufacture personal protective garments such as firefighter suits, search and rescue clothing, and heat and flame resistant, antistatic protective clothing for workers in refineries, petrochemical plants, pipelines and storage facilities. We also produce protective garments for the iron and steel industry against molten metal splashes, as well as protective clothing against arc flash for power generation and transmission lines. Additionally, products such as wildland firefighting clothing, chainsaw protective clothing, pilot coveralls, tanker crew uniforms, and camouflage apparel are manufactured for military and security forces.
Kıvanç Group established Turkey’s first heat laboratory in the field of personal protective clothing.

ALUSTAR 830102 Aluminized Suit Set
This aluminized suit set is designed to protect the wearer against high radiant heat. The garments consist of an outer fabric and a heat barrier and are produced in accordance with EN 1486. The set comprises a jacket covering SCBA cylinders, trousers, an EN 397 helmet with a gold-vapour visor hood, gloves, EN 15090 boots and gaiters, and a carrying bag.
ARCSTAR Arc-Flash Protective Clothing
An electric arc is a high-current uninterrupted discharge between conductors that produces intense light and heat. ARCSTAR protective garments reduce the risk of long-term injury and increase the chance of survival for workers exposed to arc flash. They are produced to EN 61482-1-1 and EN 61482-1-2. The range is intended for personnel on power generation and transmission lines.
METALSTAR Molten-Metal Splash Protective Clothing
METALSTAR protective garments allow molten metal and welding spatter to run off the fabric and do not continue to burn. They are produced for iron-and-steel and foundry environments in accordance with ISO 11612 and ISO 11611. Suit and coverall options are designed so that heat leaves the fabric surface on splash. They are intended for personnel around welding and furnaces.
Services
Personal Protective Clothing Manufacturing
In the Safety Division, personal protective clothing is produced against heat and flame, static discharge, arc flash, molten metal, welding spatter and cutting hazards. At the Sinop OSB plant the company makes antistatic flame-resistant garments for firefighters, search-and-rescue and refinery or petrochemical crews, as well as molten-metal splash clothing for iron and steel and arc-protective garments for power lines. Production is verified in heat and physical laboratories to EN and ISO tests before CE certification.
Klevostar Removable Pad Turbine and Equipment Insulation
Klevostar removable-pad insulation for turbines, machines and equipment is intended to cut energy loss with pads that can be taken off and refitted for maintenance. Pads are made to the equipment geometry and fastened with screws or ties. The system is used on textile dyeing machines, boiler-front insulation and exhaust lines that need frequent access. Kıvanç Group’s engineering division installs the system on site.
Spray-Applied Turbine and Equipment Insulation
Spray-applied insulation is chosen for energy saving, occupational safety and a rigid insulation surface. It is preferred on steam turbines that are not dismantled for long periods and do not need frequent opening. Heat-resistant granular materials, especially rock wool, are applied through a dedicated machine so the shell is covered without gaps; a high-temperature render and oil-repellent coating complete the system.
