EDR Kimya / Kayteks: We consider adhesives and felt as inseparable parts of each other

Eren Çelik, Owner of EDR Kimya and Kayteks, said that EDR, where they produce adhesives, and Kayteks, where they produce felt, act together in terms of both customer satisfaction and the correct use of cost.

 

The two brands operating in the chemicals and felts industry have been supplying quality products for mattress manufacturers. We made an exclusive interview with Eren Çelik, proprietor of the company to highlight their superiorities:

Can you detail your products addressing to the mattress manufacturing industry?

Like the BONE-MEAT, adhesive produced by EDR Kimya and Felt produced by Kayteks are both products that complete one another. When the last one is used the first one must be there as well. MEAT must be as healthier than the BONE if both are used together. If the choice is for high quality adhesive, felt must also follow the same trend.

In recent years, the pace of the change in world supply chain has deathly affected the sector actors. To revert this negative impact into an advantage, a ‘’ NICHE/LOCALE’’ service has come to life from international suppliers.

Taking into account this quick change and to respond quickly and cost efficiently to the expected services, gathering ADHESIVE and FELT under the same roof for a WIN – WIN goal has been approved.

As the adhesive is a chemical product with a limited end use date, to supply it to clients with a necessary quantity at cost effective way is to deliver it with felt.

Choosing the right procurement strategy by combining into same Truck ADHESIVE and FELT helps to Get rid of 4 main risks:

• High Stock Risk
• High-Cost Risk
• Risk of Passing End Use Date
• Supply Delay Risk

Buying the Adhesive and Felt into the same truck bring the advantage of BUYING FRESH USING FRESH and this leads Mattresses and Sofa Producers to be more competitive in the business by taking advantages in quality.
