Türkiye's boron wealth and the value of domestic production

The road from reserve to product

A country's mineral wealth only becomes economically meaningful when it turns into a high value-added product. The value gap between an exported raw mineral and a consumer product made from that same mineral is enormous, and the key to closing it is R&D capacity.

NovaLabs was founded by three academics in the Balıkesir University Technology Development Zone for exactly this reason: to bring a domestic resource together with university knowledge and turn it into a shelf-ready product.

Three concrete benefits of domestic raw materials

Supply security: a chain less exposed to global logistics volatility. Short logistics: less transport and lower transport-related emissions. Know-how: formulation and manufacturing knowledge that stays and grows inside the country.

How we approach sustainability

We treat sustainability as the sum of daily decisions rather than a label: not inflating packaging volume, favouring concentrated and economical formats, keeping production close to the consumption market and keeping formulas free of unnecessarily aggressive components.

We believe measurable environmental claims require independent verification, which is why no unverified certificate or test result appears in our communication.

What comes next

As the range grows, our baseline stays the same: domestic resources, university-born R&D and high performance that stays gentle on surfaces. Follow progress in the company news category.
