Welcome to Tanış A.Ş.’s news. On this page, you can access current information about our company’s projects, sectoral developments, and news. Since 1956, we share with you our experiences and contributions to the sector in the fields of mill technologies, seed processing systems, feed technologies, and steel construction.
Tanış creates global impact by sharing its sectoral knowledge not only through production but also on international education platforms. At regional education forums organized by IAOM (International Association of Operative Millers), we proudly represented Turkey with technical presentations we made in various countries.
Event Locations:
- Zambia
- Rwanda
- Indonesia
- Saudi Arabia
By sharing our experience in milling technologies, process optimization, and facility efficiency with industry professionals, we became a reliable source of knowledge in the global arena. Tanış will continue this knowledge-sharing mission and will take active roles in many international organizations in the future.
Closed-Type Stone Bulgur Peeling Innovation in Turkey (1970–1980)
Tanış stepped into the international market with its first export in 1980. A total of 5 legume cleaning and sorting screens, each with 8 cases, were produced for Syria with a total value of 80,000 USD and shipped with 5 trucks to Damascus, Deir ez-Zor, Aleppo, and Homs regions.
On-site installation and commissioning work was carried out by Tanış engineers, thus the systems were put into operation in a short time. This first export became the starting point of Tanış’s quality, engineering, and trust-based export vision and formed the foundation of its global successes in the following years.
First Closed-Type Stone Bulgur Peeling in Turkey (1970–1980)
Impact and Results:
- Shipment of approximately 500 machines nationwide within ten years
- Pioneering the transformation of the bulgur industry especially in Southeastern Anatolia
- Bringing high hygiene, capacity, and occupational safety standards to the sector
- Turning point in the industrial production of bulgur
Saudi Arabia/Jeddah (1988)
In 1988, Tanış carried the fava bean peeling, cracking, and processing technology developed for the first time in Turkey to the international market and exported a 5 ton/hour capacity fully automatic plant to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
This plant had the distinction of being the first automatic fava bean processing plant in the country and created a new standard in the region in terms of both production hygiene and efficiency. This system developed with Tanış’s engineering power became a turning point not only for Turkey but also for the Middle East market in legume technologies.
Beginning of Modern Roller Mill Exports (1987 to Present)
Tanış started production of roller modern mills in 1987, first exporting to countries such as Algeria, Syria, and Iraq, then continued its expansion in markets such as Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, and Tatarstan, mostly with compact chassis systems.
Features and Effects:
- Advantages of fast installation, low space requirement, and affordable investment cost
- Moving Tanış from a regional mill supplier to a strong player in the global market
- Previously installed systems continue to serve today with modernization and capacity increases
In 2020, the seed technology production line of Tanış Group was moved to Mersin with a strategic decision under the leadership of Eray and Tacettin Tan, and a new production facility named “Tanış Seed Production Technologies” was established.
Developments:
- Moving the production of seed and legume processing machines to this facility
- 20% increase in overall production capacity
- Taking advantage of Mersin’s strategic advantages as a port city
- Rising to the leadership position in Turkey and second place in the world after Bühler in seed and legume processing technologies
Tanış Group is today one of the most comprehensive and integrated industrial organizations in its sector that can carry out all machine and equipment production in milling, seed processing, feed technologies, silo systems, and steel construction fields within its own structure.
