Finalized fabric is obtained as a result of the issuance of the quality card of all our yarns. Quality starts with the selection of raw materials according to the end-use point and all of the physical measurements are applied according to the 100% inspection principle and fibre classification is provided. After this stage, production, quality, plan and process adjustment schemes are realized throughout the production line. The final fabric results in the suitability of the yarn to the quality requirements. The effective implementation of quality management and quality processes and simple 5-S principles and lean management system in our enterprises are our most important business rules.” Regarding the machines and certificates they have Eroğlu, stated that; “Open and ring machines, carding and CE machines are all Rieter group. Our G36 machines have Amsler effect systems and Pinter – Amsler elastane system. Our coil machines consist of Savio Pulsars and Muratec Qpro models.

Our Main Goal Is To Increase Our Production Capacity
With regard to market share and target market in Turkey, Eroglu, stated that; "Our main production facility mesh with our largest customer for 75% of our production capacity as a result of our processing yarn is dyed fabric. 25% yarn production is transferred to domestic and foreign weaving and knitting factories. Our domestic market share in our last product, knitted dyed fabric, varies between 6-10% in years. Our main target is to increase our production capacity at every kind of yarn supplier point with our 3rd stage yarn facility which is currently in the project phase.” In 2018 and 2019, Cemal Eroğlu, Head of Yarn mills at Dokuboy Textile Mining Co. said, “The global economic difficulties in 2018 were felt at a low rate in our company.

We Include Different Products with Effect Systems in Dokuboy Fabric Production
Cemal Eroğlu, in order to respond our question “to direct the market and to address different markets, to select your machine park, and the market's flexibility and demand for different types of yarn; how it was important for you to choose the machine park”; stated that ; “2. our stage ring project has been designed to address the yarn needs of weaving and denim mills outside our own, and the most effective effect / elastane systems have been added to the production of particularly effect and elastane yarns, and more importantly, the selection of the last stage winding machine has been made.” In respond to our question of “Do you do R & D studies on developing new products?”; Eroğlu said, “I believe that the main source of the difference in the product is in the raw material and therefore in our sector it is in the fibre. Especially in our second investment, we have managed to create differences in the finished fabric by making our R & D studies for the cellulosic origin fibre types and their mixture with cotton. We have included different products with effect systems in Dokuboy fabric production. In our new Ring and Air Spinning yarn production facilities, we aim to produce products that are more flexible with both machine park and fibre types to be used. Together with our new investment, I believe that we will carry out an intensive R & D study. We have started to design our ring and air spinning systems for synthetic yarn production.”
KTM 2019 Will Open the Horizon of Our Employees and Investors

As KTM 2019 both as a company and as a region, how we could provide you with the added value to Kahramanmaraş?”; Eroğlu said: “It is necessary for both our investors to have KTM 2019 will also open the horizon of our employees. The changes made in the machines are a very good organization in order to see the positive developments that will create difference and quality in the product. However, apart from our people in the region, I think it is necessary to work in order to attract investors and product suppliers both in neighbour countries and other ones. In order for our country to have a voice in the world, investments in production and related sectors need to increase.”
