Atak i̇leri̇ malzeme teknoloki̇leri

Advanced Materials & Chemicals

ATAK Advanced Materials develops sustainable activated carbon and advanced carbon materials from non-recyclable, carbon rich
industrial and agricultural wastes. Through microwave assisted and conventional thermal activation processes, ATAK tailors material properties such as surface area, pore structure, and adsorption performance to specific customer needs. Its solutions serve a broad range of sectors, including water and wastewater treatment, air and flue gas purification, carbon capture, hydrogen related applications, and energy storage. By valorizing waste streams that would otherwise be incinerated or disposed of, ATAK supports circular resource use, lower emissions, and more sustainable industrial operations.

Mikrohes Tekenoloji Enerji San. ve Ti.c A.Ş.

Advanced Materials & Chemicals
Green Buildings
Water Efficiency

Mikrohes produces Archimedes Screws Turbines (ASTs). ASTs are a new form of small, hydroelectric powerplant that can be applied even in low head sites. ASTs offer a clean and renewable source of energy and are safe for wildlife , especially fish in hydro generation options. ASTs can offer many economic, social and environmental advantages that make them an important option for providing sustainable hydropower development.

Archimedes screws can operate in low water heads (less than about 10 m) and a wide range of flow rates with practical efficiencies of 60% to 80% and can generate up to 400 kW of power. ASTs increase the number of suitable sites where it is possible to develop sustainable hydropower, including undeveloped, hard to access regions and small communities. At many low head sites, ASTs may be more cost-effective, with lower installation and operating costs than alternative hydropower systems. ASTs may also reduce the disturbance of natural sedimentation and erosion processes, and have smaller impacts on fish and other fauna. ASTs can often be retrofitted to existing unpowered dams or weirs, providing new hydropower capacity for very little marginal environmental impact.

NuManufacturing IoT & AI Technologies AS.

Waste Benefication

Numanufacturing is a Turkish startup that evelops AI/ML-based platforms for predictive maintenance and energy optimization in industrial settings. NuManufacturing’s platform, Predictomatic 4.X (Bestekar 4.X), combines real-time data analytics with an integrated sensor system, NumBox, to monitor machines, production lines and entire factories. The platform detects anomalies, predicts equipment failures and supports optimized maintenance planning, helping industrial operators reduce unplanned downtime and extend asset lifecycles. The system is designed to operate in real time and is compatible with different machine brands and industrial setups. Complementing this, Sustainability 4.X (Bereket 4.X) analyzes energy and resource efficiency by correlating sensor data across systems. It identifies idle equipment, inefficiencies and abnormal consumption patterns related to energy, water and emissions, enabling targeted operational improvements. By integrating edge communication, adaptive machine learning models, and industrial IoT infrastructure, NuManufacturing’s solutions can support data-driven decision-making and reduced waste of materials, spare parts and energy in manufacturing and industrial operations.

Robeff Teknoloji

Robeff is a deep-tech autonomous mobility company enabling industrial operators and vehicle manufacturers to deploy autonomous vehicles without developing the underlying technology themselves. We address growing labor shortages, safety risks, and operational inefficiencies in factories, logistics centers, airports, ports, and industrial sites through our full-stack autonomy platform.
Robeff develops full-stack autonomous mobility solutions that enable industrial vehicles to operate safely and efficiently without human intervention. The company's product portfolio consists of three complementary offerings that address different customer needs while sharing the same proprietary autonomy platform.
The flagship product, Robione, is a fully autonomous industrial vehicle designed for indoor and outdoor material handling. It carries up to 1,500 kg, tows 8 tons, operates at speeds of up to 20 km/h, and can be deployed within approximately one week without requiring additional infrastructure. Robione is already operating in commercial environments with repeat customer orders, demonstrating proven performance under real industrial conditions.
Robeff also offers Autonomous Conversion, a turnkey solution that transforms existing industrial vehicles, including trucks, tractors, airport ground support equipment, and off-road vehicles, into autonomous platforms. This enables customers to automate their current fleets without replacing existing assets, significantly reducing investment costs while accelerating adoption. The solution has already been successfully deployed in projects across Europe, Australia, and Türkiye.
Complementing these solutions is a portfolio of Autonomy Products, including proprietary drive-by-wire systems, vehicle control units (VCU), GNSS/INS positioning modules, multi-sensor rooftop integration kits, fleet management software, and teleoperation capabilities. These technologies are used internally and are also commercialized to OEMs, research institutions, and technology partners.

HER

Advanced Materials & Chemicals

HER is a biomaterials company developing leather-like alternatives for textile, fashion, upholstery and interior applications. The company focuses on replacing petrochemical and animal-based materials with bio-based inputs produced through low-impact manufacturing processes. HER’s material is produced using a proprietary fermentation-based method in which cellulose is generated by yeast in water. The process yields a biodegradable biomaterial with a soft, natural leather-like texture and color. While the full biological cycle takes place over several months, production and shaping of the material can be completed within a few days, enabling scalable and flexible manufacturing, including custom-shaped bio-leather formats. The production process is designed to be waste-free, with all residues separated into three distinct by-products for further use. The resulting material is water-resistant without chemical coatings and certified to withstand mechanical stress of up to 900 Newtons, making it suitable for functional textile and surface applications. HER operates with near-zero CO₂ emissions and positions its materials within regenerative and circular value chains aimed at waste reduction and sustainable material innovation in the textile sector.
