Renco Composite Construction Technology, Accepted by the Ministry

Renco Kompozit Teknolojileri A.Ş. implemented exemplary projects in the region with its innovative Composite Modular Construction System in February 2023 following the earthquakes in Turkey. Designed to build fast and earthquake-resistant structures, this system is characterized as “the fastest building system in Turkey” and will play a key role in the reconstruction and redevelopment efforts of the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change.

Yeşil Holding Chairman Engin Yeşil stated regarding the subject: "Our Renco company, a subsidiary of Yeşil Holding, has developed a patented technology through over 10 years of R&D experience and work, delivering a revolutionary innovation to the construction sector. This new material, which is used today in many high-tech products and in the aerospace industry, can now also serve as a construction framework, offering advantages such as earthquake resistance, corrosion resistance, and thermal insulation. The most important feature of the system is its capability for rapid construction. With this technology, we obtained building approval in America in 2018 and are currently constructing buildings. In the coming period, we will introduce this material and its benefits in Turkey as well."

A letter dated July 3, 2024 (Ref: 996225) from the Ministry emphasized that Renco’s Composite Modular Construction System can be built much faster and more safely compared to conventional systems. The Ministry indicated that this system would provide an effective solution for repairing extensive post-earthquake damages and for the region’s reconstruction. After evaluating the projects and reports, the Ministry included this system in the New Construction Technologies Guidebook.

What is the Composite Modular Construction System

The Composite Modular Construction System developed by Renco uses composite materials to create earthquake-resistant structures. This system is produced in prefabricated modules that can be quickly assembled. Compared to conventional construction methods, these structures can be completed in a much shorter time and possess superior resistance to earthquakes.

"It aims to provide rapid post-disaster intervention and shelter solutions"

This innovative construction technology not only aims to build earthquake-resistant homes but also to offer rapid intervention and shelter solutions following disasters. The Ministry has thoroughly reviewed Renco’s projects and reports, completed the necessary permit and approval processes for the system’s use. With this approval, the Composite Modular Construction System is expected to be widely utilized in disaster-affected areas. Renco Kompozit Teknolojileri has obtained the necessary construction permits for structures up to five stories in Turkey and is listed under the Ministry’s Project Approval System (POS). Currently, among approved building systems for structures of two or more stories in Turkey, only steel, reinforced concrete, and Renco’s Composite Modular Construction System are available.

It Aims to Contribute to Regional Reconstruction

Renco Kompozit Teknolojileri, a subsidiary of Yeşil Holding, aims to play an active role in the reconstruction of residential areas affected by earthquakes in Turkey and to build thousands of homes. In this context, it continues to work on providing fast and safe construction solutions for above-ground projects, thereby helping restore regions to their former state.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, in a statement following the earthquakes, said, "The reconstruction of our cities devastated by the February 6 earthquakes remains at the very top of our agenda. So far, we have delivered over 76,000 disaster shelters to their rightful owners. Our goal is to complete the delivery of 200,000 homes by the end of the year. We will not leave behind any earthquake victim who has not yet received a home before the end of 2025." Yeşil Holding’s initiative is aimed at significantly contributing to a rapid and safe construction process in Turkey’s earthquake-prone regions.
