With a history spanning nearly a quarter of a century, MT Makina has signed an agreement for a USD 10 million investment in Uzbekistan as part of environmental projects aimed at supporting the circular economy. The agreement was signed between Sherifbek Khasanov, Chairman of the Uzbekistan Agency for the Development of Waste Management and the Circular Economy, and Müslüm Bağluca, Founder of MT Makina.

The facility to be established is planned to have the capacity to process up to 500 tons of waste per day. Within the scope of the project, new production areas are also expected to be commissioned, enabling the annual production of up to 1,000 units of specialized equipment and waste containers.

While the new investment is expected to make a significant contribution to the regional economy, it has been reported that the facility will initially create employment for approximately 100 people. The project is scheduled to become operational in 2027.

Founded in the early 2000s, MT Makina manufactures waste processing equipment at its facilities in Istanbul, including shredding machines and sorting systems, serving a wide range of industries from textiles to automotive.
