QUALITY TAKES PRIORITY
Cem Dizdar, managing director of SELSA, recounts how his family fled former Yugoslavia for Turkey during the war, a move that no one could have imagined would lead to them founding one of the country’s flagship companies in the machining sector. His father, a mechanical engineer trained in Germany, estab-lished the company in 1992 from scratch. Back then, only a handful of employ-ees worked in a small space – today, around 280 skilled workers manufacture precision parts for an international clientele, particularly in the automotive sec-tor, in a modern 7,000 square-meter (75,400 square feet) facility operating around the clock. Most recently, five CNC universal cylindrical grinding ma-chines from STUDER have been added to the operation.
