2002

New Headquarters

ISKAR Ltd. announces the establishment of its new headquarters in Istanbul, Turkey. The new office has a separate section for engineering and development, backed up with the latest hardware and software technology. The team focuses on developing cost-effective, rail mounted slewing jib cranes, high capacity goliath cranes and reliable floating dock cranes.

2012

International Projects

Until this year ISKAR successfully completed a number of design and turnkey delivery projects around its region. Starting from 2012, ISKAR focuses on establishing and developing its international agent network, which in return brings new contracts. Throughout this time, ISKAR adds hydraulic deck cranes and related machinery to its equipment portfolio.

Through its agent network and successfully completed projects, ISKAR participates in international tenders as a sole manufacturer and turnkey Original Equipment Manufacturer for tailor-made material handling machinery projects.
