Efkan Turan Yağcı
Efkan Turan Yağcı graduated in Electrical & Electronics Engineering from Anadolu University in 1992 and has worked as an engineer and technical manager in industrial production plants since 1994. In the food-production facilities of Zorlu Holding (Güney Gıda) and Esas Holding (Esaslı Gıda) he was responsible for machinery investments, automation, energy and the management of all technical processes.
In 2012 he moved into manufacturing under his own brand, founding Umran Gıda ve Hijyen Makineleri in Antalya and producing everything from meat and poultry cutting lines to hygiene equipment. These 30-plus years of shop-floor and production experience are what set Umran Makine apart: we design our products not from a catalogue but through the eyes of an engineer who knows food-plant operations and hygiene protocols from the inside. In 2024 we moved production to Pendik, İstanbul, focusing — with the same team and the same discipline — on manufacturing hygiene machinery and equipment.

Digital shift
A digital sales foundation with a new corporate site and product configurator; our R&D continues on smarter, sensor-driven machines and AI-assisted hygiene applications.
Our mission
To build auditable, durable hygiene entrance systems that raise production standards in food, pharma and healthcare facilities and put human health first — keeping stainless-steel discipline in every detail to give our partners safe clean zones.
Our vision
To be Türkiye’s reference brand in hygiene stations and entrance systems — standardising clean-zone entry through sensor-operated, auditable and site-specific solutions.
How we build
Manufacturer discipline in four principles: in-house production, no compromise on material, site-fit solutions and auditable hygiene.
In-house production
From design to welding, installation to service — every step in our own workshop. No middlemen, the responsibility is ours.
No compromise on material
Full AISI 304 stainless body. We don’t cut sheet thickness or components to shave cost.
Site-fit solutions
Not an off-the-shelf catalogue — configuration to your facility flow, headcount and hygiene protocol.
Auditable hygiene
Our units are designed to form a provable critical control point in HACCP/BRC audits.
No compromise on quality
All our products are manufactured to CE norms and HACCP standards from AISI 304 stainless steel. Our quality management system is ISO 9001:2015 certified for the manufacture of special purpose machinery. Our products have IP protection certificates; protection ratings are specified for each product and component.
