About Us
VisneChem was born when the production strength of Vişne Madencilik and the marketing network and sector experience of Microchem came together under one roof. We work on process solutions, technical product selection and dosing in industrial lime and calcium carbonate applications.
What is VisneChem?
VisneChem is an industrial solutions brand that brings together the accumulated experience of two long-established lime companies. Vişne Madencilik and Microchem joined forces in 2026 to found VisneChem; the entire chain running from production to market is today conducted within a single structure.
The brand's work is not limited to selling products. Which lime works in which process, at which particle size and at which dosage is considered separately for every customer; product selection is not a catalogue choice but a process decision. Alongside Türkiye, Africa and the Americas are our priority markets.
The accumulated experience of two brands
The production strength of Vişne Madencilik and the marketing network and sector experience of Microchem came together under the VisneChem roof. Both companies were names the lime industry knows well, each with its own accumulated experience; the partnership was formed to place that experience side by side. The resulting structure is a single chain running from quarry to kiln and from kiln to export market.
Vişne Madencilik
Production began in 1952 in Bergama under the name Öztüre Kireç. The company joined Öztüre Holding in 2010; the Çelemli plant in Adana came on stream the same year. The Çukurova quarry followed in 2013 and the Narlı plant in Kahramanmaraş in 2021. In February 2025 the company was listed on Borsa Istanbul. Today more than 2,250 tons of lime are produced per day at three integrated facilities, and the products are exported to more than 30 countries.
Microchem
Microchem, based in Niğde, is the lime company of the Kaçgan family. It is a name the industry knows well in quicklime, hydrated lime and limestone; its experience in production and marketing goes back many years. The company's international network is particularly strong in African markets — the stand it opened at the mining fair in West Africa in October 2025 was visited by the Minister of Energy and Mines of Burkina Faso. That network plays a direct part in carrying the products to export markets.
VisneChem
VisneChem was founded in 2026 through the partnership of these two companies. It operates as an industrial solutions brand focused on chemistry and application; its priority markets are Africa and the Americas.
