• According to the latest update of the Economical Business Association and Development Organization (OECD); environmental products cover 345 industrial products. This product group extends from renewable energy equipment to waste and water management technologies, provides basic inputs for both ecosystem friendly transformation and represents more information intensive production.
• Turkey’s environmental product exports reached 31.5 billion dollars with annual data from the third quarter of 2025. While environmental product exports grow faster than other product groups, the increase in export unit prices is more powerful. [
• The share of environmental products in the total export of Turkey reached about 12 percent according to the annual data from 2025 third quarter. On the other hand, the share of environmental products received from the EU (European Union) imports also draws attention with a acceleration increase after 2017.

Even new environmental products that Turkey has not yet competitive power are more sophisticated than other new products.
• The necessary ability inventory to produce environmental products is assessed to pass to more new products compared to other product groups. Turkey can gain capabilities that can use to produce both other products by producing more environmental products and can slide production pattern to more information intensive products.
• Increasing competitiveness in environmental products; Turkey’s exports increase can contribute to three basic areas, including the production of inputs required for structural transformation and ecosystem-friendly global transformation.
