SPOGAD

Waste Beneficiation

SPOGAD is a fashion-tech company that recycles local plastic waste into high-end accessories, jewelry, and complex detailing for the premium fashion industry. It runs a closed-loop, vertically integrated system: collecting and sorting citizens' plastic waste and transforming it in-house into bespoke elements such as custom patterns, Murano-glass-like beads, recycled thread for crochet and basketry, and CNC-milled or injection-molded details, with 3D-printed recycled PET and upcycled sequins planned. Its value proposition lets premium brands produce fully local, traceable, custom-designed items from recycled plastic, accompanied by climate-accounting reports. The tiered business model spans catalogue products, custom variations, and bespoke design. SPOGAD's environmental impact includes a roughly 70% lower carbon footprint than virgin plastic and a goal of eliminating more than 11 tonnes of virgin plastic per year by 2028. Traction includes a first pilot with Yves Rocher and industry awards.

FURKHASA R&D Engineering Inc.

Advanced Materials & Chemicals

FURKHASA R&D Engineering Inc. was established on August 23, 2024, within ERCIYES TECHNOPARK, and develops modular construction technologies aimed at manufacturing lightweight composite unit elements/panels characterized by high thermal efficiency utilizing recycled concrete aggregates. The operations encompass the design of sustainable structural materials derived from waste concrete and natural minerals, as well as the fabrication of modular unit components engineered from these advanced materials. Honored with the TÜBİTAK Seal of Excellence and supported by the Development Fund of TÜRKİYE, the enterprise has completed a comprehensive three-year R&D process executed by an expert cadre of academics and engineers. The product portfolio, secured by national and international patents, initially achieved semi-finalist status in the Global Cleantech Innovation Programme (GCIP 2025 TÜRKİYE). According to carbon emission assessments conducted within the scope of the GCIP framework, the proposed modular construction systems contribute to a reduction of 101 kg of CO2 per 1 m² of built area compared to conventional construction methodologies. In 2026, the firm integrated into the Enterprise Europe Network under the profile titled "Sustainable modular construction systems and advanced building materials derived from recycled concrete and natural materials," thereby expanding its strategic vision through international collaborations. Furthermore, the project, introduces energy storage integration into structural systems aligned with net-zero energy building targets.
