Once upon a time — and every morning since 1984

The cleanest tale a city tells: Waste Management

In 1983 a law was passed; in 1984, Harman was born. Ever since, while cities sleep, an invisible hero has swept their streets, turned waste into value and kept their tomorrows clean. The tale begins again every night — and it always ends clean.

Chapter II

A forty-two-year journey

Every tale has a beginning. Ours began the year Türkiye decided to make peace with its environment.

Our company was established in 1984, following the enactment of Environmental Law No. 2872 of 1983. Ever since, we have provided waste management (urban, industrial, hazardous) consultancy and implementation services, environmental consultancy, workplace hygiene, OHS measurements, environmental analysis, asbestos inventory reporting and dismantling, and building demolition works.

We manufacture all required technical equipment in-house — transfer belts, compaction units, storage containers, trailers and semi-trailers, boiler feeding equipment — and also provide landscaping services, sewer imaging and cleaning, and passenger, light and heavy commercial vehicle rental.

With a planning team of expert engineers, an experienced technical crew and an extensive fleet of vehicles and equipment, we deliver professional solutions across Türkiye and to many countries worldwide.

Chapter III · Service 01

Urban Waste Management

Urban solid waste is among the leading threats to the environment we live in and to human health. We treat the collection, transportation, recovery and disposal stages of solid waste management as one whole of interdependent, complementary links — planning and operating on the principle of optimizing environmental and economic value, in line with a zero waste policy.

With our special cleaning vehicles and expert staff, we serve the public through municipalities, providing the clean, tidy and well-maintained living spaces people deserve.

Chapter III · Service 02

Industrial Waste Management

Through the joint work of our planning and technical teams, the waste generated at your facility is first classified. After evaluating the facility's layout and working conditions, we plan and implement the most effective and economical waste management system — fully compliant with applicable laws and the requirements of ISO 14001 Environmental and ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems.

End-to-end service
Chapter III · Service 03

Hazardous Waste Management

Our company holds the "Hazardous Waste and Waste Oil Transportation License" issued by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization. Our staff has the required training and documents (ADR, SRC) for hazardous waste and waste oil transport.

We manage waste on your company's behalf: transfer and management of hazardous wastes, classification, determination of waste codes, analysis in accredited laboratories, disposal at the final disposal point through the Waste Transport System Provider, staff training and selection of the appropriate disposal point.

What is hazardous waste?

Substances that are lethal to humans and animals even at varying doses; toxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic to other life forms; flammable at various temperatures; explosive, corrosive and reactive.
Chapter III · Service 04

Medical Waste Management

Used medicine and injector wastes, and wastes generated during surgery and treatment at hospitals, dispensaries, health centers and clinics are classified as medical waste. Because of infection risk, we collect medical waste touch-free, with vehicles licensed for medical waste transport, separately from other waste — then have it disposed of in sanitary landfills after sterilization at medical waste sterilization facilities.

Major medical wastes
Chapter III · Service 05

Recycling & Packaging Waste

We supply containers with and without built-in compactors to the points where metal, packaging and especially paper waste is generated, ensuring efficient accumulation and collection by special lift vehicles. Waste collected without polluting at the source is sorted by type at our facilities and baled with hydraulic presses.

Under the Packaging Waste Control Regulation (Official Gazette 27.12.2017, No. 30283), we manage the packaging waste of all institutions we serve in full compliance with the legislation.

Chapter III · Service 06

Infrastructure & Sewer Services

City sewer lines fill up over time; residues and chemical wastes deform them, causing collapses and breaks. Before cleaning, the line is inspected with special sewer imaging devices and its condition assessed; unblocking is carried out by our professional team.

Our vehicles feature water recycling: the water present in the channel is treated and reused for further cleaning — uninterrupted operation without wasting water.

Environmental Analysis & Laboratory

Within the scope of factories' EIA commitments — during regular measurement and inspection processes or capacity increases — we deliver all needed environmental analyses accurately and effectively with our accredited laboratory solution partner.

Asbestos hidden in old buildings is an invisible but serious health threat. Before demolition or renovation we map the risk with asbestos inventory reporting, then remove it safely with fully compliant asbestos abatement works.
