Providing accommodation and donations

Ad hoc measures included providing relief supplies such as (baby) food, clothing and hygiene items, as well as shelter in earthquake-free areas. In addition, Trützschler launched an internal fundraising campaign at its sites worldwide. 122,323 euros were collected thanks to a large number of generous individual donations, as well as donations from various organizations. The company then added to this and reached a final donation of 260,000 euros. Christoph Weber, head of the Turkish service company TEMASA, was moved by the solidarity and willingness to donate. “We are very impressed by this global effort and the great empathy of everyone involved,” he says. “It has shown our Turkish employees that they are not alone – and this spirit of togetherness particularly characterizes us as a family company.”

Trützschler is making sure these donations directly benefit affected colleagues in Türkiye, as well as their families and local communities. The company has expressed its particular thanks to everybody who donated to this campaign, as well as to the teams who are coordinating measures in Türkiye.
