Production

Production

Three quarries, one 30,000 m² plant and every process in between under our own roof. This is how we keep quality, colour and delivery dates in our hands.

Quarries

Our own stone, from our own mountains

Devtaş operates its own basalt quarry in the Develi district of Kayseri, on the volcanic plateau south of Mount Erciyes, plus a diabase quarry in Tokat and an Ottoman Green quarry. Blocks are graded on site and moved to the plant.

Kayseri basalt

Our own quarry in Develi. Dense, fine-grained black basalt with a declared density of 2,739 kg/m³, our main export product.

Tokat diabase

A very hard, dark green-grey igneous stone from our quarry in Tokat, available as blocks, slabs and cut-to-size on request.

Ottoman Green

A decorative green stone from our Ottoman Green quarry, offered in slabs and tiles on request.

30,000 m² of processing in Develi

Our plant in Develi combines 5,000 m² of covered production halls with 25,000 m² of open block yard and finished-goods storage. A team of 120 and our cutting and finishing lines produce around 1,000 m² of finished stone every day. A 1 MW rooftop solar plant generates our own electricity.

Process

From block to container

  1. Quarrying

    Blocks are extracted at our basalt quarry in Develi and graded by colour and soundness.

  2. Block selection

    Only sound, uniform blocks are released to production.

  3. Sawing

    Gang saws and bridge saws cut blocks into slabs and strips to the exact thickness specified in your order.

  4. Surface finishing

    Polishing, sandblasting, brushing, splitting or tumbling lines give each piece the specified surface.

  5. Quality control

    Every batch is checked for dimensions, squareness, thickness tolerance and surface quality before packing.

  6. Packing

    Tiles are packed on pallets or in wooden crates and strapped, labelled to match your packing list.

  7. Shipping

    Containers are loaded at our factory and dispatched via Mersin port with full export documentation.

Quality control

Checked at every step

Blocks are graded at the quarry, slabs are inspected after sawing and every packed pallet is checked for dimensions, thickness tolerance, squareness and surface quality. Our ISO 9001 system documents each batch, and CE performance values are declared in the Declaration of Performance.
