As its last subsidiary, SAMPAŞ Nanotechnology is one of the few companies focusing on commercialization of custom designed nano- and green technology solutions. 

The main industrial sectors of our interest can be listed as: ceramics, glass, packaging, construction, renewable energy, waste management, plastics, textile, and obviously automotive industries. We mostly work with SMEs that have only limited resources to keep up with the fastest growing trends of emerging technologies.

In this way, we help them to extend their value-added products portfolio, which gives them a significant advantage in the global race especially against Asian competitors. In addition, our company has access to the facilities of national nanotechnology labs. In summary, we aim to bridge the gap between the technology developing startup companies and manufacturing SMEs in Turkey.
