Çığır Kimya Sanayi ve Tic. A.Ş.

Çığır Kimya is a company founded in 1992 to develop and manufacture shoe polish and leather care products under the SILVER brand. Over the course of a quarter-century, it has given rise to a group of companies that includes BAŞAR TEKNOLOJİ—which has achieved advanced levels in plastic molding, automation lines, and robotic solutions under its own corporate umbrella—as well as its overseas subsidiaries, such as Bashar Russia, and Bashar Ukraine—distribution companies established as its overseas affiliates—under its own corporate umbrella. While the industrial history of shoe polish and care products dates back to the early 20th century, our company, as a manufacturer with just 32 years of experience, is still a “young” player in the industry.

Çığır Kimya, which brings the SILVER brand to customers in 65 countries, is expanding its presence across all continents worldwide. It owes the brand recognition it has built in a short time and its high-quality production infrastructure to the fact that it handles product formulations, industrial designs, plastic molds, automation lines, and quality control processes entirely in-house. Thanks to this accumulated expertise, the company ranks among Turkey’s top 500 exporters. Çığır Kimya stands out in all its business segments with its “innovative” vision. As a result, it holds numerous patented products and technologies.

Çığır Kimya will continue to develop projects to fulfill its social and environmental responsibilities, both as a Turkish company within its home country and on a global scale.
