History

Yetsan Auto Radiator was founded by three brothers in Corum, Turkey early in 1970’s. They started the business with repairing radiators and making some metal work.

And in the following years they started to produce unique heating systems for cars and truck. After the serial production of the cabin heating systems company started to manufacture copper-brass heater cores for cabin heating system.

In 1990 company made new inwestments in order to manufacture new cabin heaters and copper brass heat exchangers. In 2007 in addition to our copper brass heat exchanger production we started to manufacture aluminum radiators and charge air coolers with the use of the most up-to-date production technologies.

Yetsan Auto Radiator A.S, Corum, is a systems partner of the international automotive industry. A specialist for engine cooling systems. Currently, Yetsan employs some 285 staff at 3 production sites.

How wemake

Yetsan creates highly engineered heating and cooling systems for the following markets;

  • 1. light, medium, and heavy-duty vehicles,
  • 2. agriculture and forestry
  • 3. construction and mining
  • 4. industrial equipment
  • 5. railways
  • 6. special vehicles
  • 7. gensets

Today, we advance the legacy of our founders by developing and manufacturing state-of-the-art cooling systems. As a leader in heating and cooling technology, we partner with our customers to provide solutions to cooling challenges. This market driven approach and our commitment to research and development will ensure our continued leadership in the thermal field for our customers with the following products;

  • 1. Charge air coolers (bar&plate or tube&fin construction)
  • 2. Radiators (bar&plate or tube&fin construction)
  • 3. Oil coolers (bar&plate or tube&fin construction)
  • 4. Heater cores
  • 5. Operator cabin HVAC components

We are also applying new technology in our manufacturing operations, which brings us new processes and equipment to ensure quality and reduce costs, while also providing us with the flexibility for new business. For example, our plant in Ankara, Turkey utilizes the latest manufacturing technologiesin daily operations.
