Bakon Engineering: Strengthening Turkey’s Printing Infrastructure
About Us
With high-quality blanket production, technical service expertise, and representation of global brands, we’ve been shaping the printing industry since 1994. Thanks to our local manufacturing strength and international experience, we consistently deliver faster, more reliable, and sustainable solutions. At Bakon, we position ourselves as your trusted partner in printing solutions, delivering consistent quality, support, and innovation.
30 Years of Quality, Trust, and Innovation in Printing
Bakon Mühendislik AŞ was founded in 1994 in Istanbul to provide maintenance and repair services for newspapers and printing houses. The name of our company originates from the words “BAKım” (maintenance) and “ONarım” (repair), directly reflecting our founding purpose. From the very first day we entered the sector, we have embraced sustainable quality, technical expertise, and customer satisfaction as our core principles.
Over the years, we have expanded not only in technical service but also in areas such as consumable supply, blanket production, and the representation of international brands. Today, with our own production capacity, we provide solutions to hundreds of printing houses across Turkey and collaborate with our global partners as an indispensable engineering firm in the industry.
Our Production and Technology Power
Bakon holds the distinction of being the first company in Turkey to establish a blanket beveling workshop. We import Vulcan brand blankets in roll form and, at our production facility in Istanbul, cut and bevel them according to customer requirements, preparing them for immediate installation. This has allowed us to significantly reduce delivery times and eliminate many technical errors that can occur during the blanket mounting process.
Over time, we not only started producing blankets but also reached the capacity to manufacture the bevels themselves. Previously fully imported, these components are now produced in-house and exported abroad. In doing so, we increase local production and gain both cost and time advantages.
In our 3,000 m² closed-area facility, we maintain high production and stock capacity thanks to our constantly updated machine park. With our backup production lines, we can respond rapidly even to urgent demands.
Global Representations and Partnerships
Bakon serves as the Turkish distributor for more than 30 companies worldwide. Among the brands we represent:
Thanks to these partnerships, we offer not only product sales but also end-to-end solutions including installation, service, training, and consultancy. A large portion of the Technotrans ink pumping systems currently in use in Turkey were designed and installed by Bakon.

Our Values and Vision
Bakon’s core principle is honesty. Open communication with customers, high-quality service, and transparent process management have always been our top priorities. We also maintain this approach as part of our internal company culture: for many years, our dedicated technical team has represented the company’s reliability and continuity.
Our vision is to produce not only solutions for today, but also for the needs of tomorrow — to strengthen local production, reduce the industry’s dependence on imports, and bring global quality standards in technical services to Turkey.
Our Achievements and Industry Recognition
Bakon is not just a company providing technical services; it is also a key player that contributes to the development of the sector and helps define its standards. In line with this vision:
We were selected as the “Best Blanket Supplier” for 4 consecutive years by Matbaa ve Teknik magazine.
We were honored with the “Best Dealer” award by the global manufacturer of Vulcan blankets.
We became the first company in the country to produce blanket bevels locally — a significant industry milestone.
All these achievements reflect our commitment to customer satisfaction and our understanding of technical excellence.
