Membrane Press and Hot Press Machine Manufacturer
Flawless under pressure.
Market leader in Türkiye and the Middle East, and one of the world’s top 3 membrane press manufacturers. Since 1961 we have built press technology for the wood, door, rubber, ceramic and panel industries.

A story that began in 1961 in a small Istanbul workshop continues today in four factories, powered by three generations of engineering. Thousands of Kocayusuf machines running around the world prove a single principle: quality reveals itself under pressure.
