Turkish Firm KADEME showcases national tech at IFAT 2026 Munich fair
At the world’s largest environmental tech fair in Munich, Turkish manufacturer KADEME drew significant interest on day one with its domestically developed electric road sweepers. The Albayrak Group board member noted the company has nearly doubled its exhibition space, reinforcing its goal to shift from a national leader to a key global player in waste management.
KADEME, the Turkish environmental technology manufacturer, launched a confident push into the global market on the opening day of IFAT 2026, the world’s leading trade fair for water, sewage, and waste management. Held at Messe Munich from May 4–7, the event saw the company present a range of locally engineered vehicles, including a zero-emission electric sweeper that quickly became a focal point for international visitors.
Strong Signal From Türkiye’s Waste Tech Sector
The Albayrak Group subsidiary, which began operations in 2011, has used this year’s IFAT to demonstrate its rapid ascent in the sector. Muhammet Fatih Albayrak, a board member of Albayrak Group, explained that the company nearly doubled its stand size compared to previous appearances, a move intended to accommodate growing interest from global buyers. “We take pride in exhibiting our fully indigenous vehicles at a prestigious platform like IFAT,” he stated, adding that KADEME is determined to secure a decisive role not only in Türkiye but across international markets.
Electric Vehicle Leads Sustainable Solutions
Amid intensified global interest in green technologies, KADEME’s battery-powered compact road sweeper emerged as a highlight on the first day. Officials cited its silent operation, absence of emissions, and high efficiency as key features tailored for future urban environments. Albayrak attributed the positive reception to long-term research and development efforts. “The strong interest from day one at IFAT 2026 confirms we made the right investments,” he said. “We will continue developing innovative solutions for cleaner cities.”
