Katmerciler:  Reliability, Efficiency and User-Friendly Solutions in Airport Refuelling Business

Katmerciler offers safe, environmentally friendly and highly efficient solutions for one of the most critical stages of airport operations aircraft refuelling with its Aircraft Refueller Vehicles and Aircraft Fuel Hydrant Dispensers. 

In modern airports, uninterrupted operations depend on the safety and speed of ground support activities. Refuelling is one of the most sensitive and strategic parts of these processes. As a leader in Turkey’s vehicle-mounted equipment industry, Katmerciler has developed two key solutions for this field, combining its long-standing engineering expertise. Katmerciler provides both diesel and electric systems to meet different operational requirements in aircraft refueling. Without compromising on safety, the company focuses on sustainability and efficiency. Both vehicle types reflect Katmerciler’s common engineering philosophy: high safety standards, user-friendly control systems, durability, and operational efficiency.

Katmerciler Standard in Quality and Safety

Since 1985, Katmerciler has been a pioneering manufacturer of vehicle-mounted equipment, carrying out all production and testing processes in its own facilities. Each vehicle is designed in accordance with international standards and produced through certified quality systems. The company positions itself not only as a manufacturer but also as a strategic partner in airport operations.

Aircraft Refuelling Vehicle

Katmerciler’s Refueller vehicles are designed for mobility, allowing refuelling at any point on the apron. Equipped with hose reels for over-wing and under-wing operations. These vehicles enable fast and safe fuel transfer to different aircraft types. With high-capacity fuel tanks, advanced pumping and filtration systems, ergonomic control panels, and low maintenance requirements, Katmerciler Refuellers deliver uninterrupted service even in high-traffic operations.

Aircraft Fuel Hydrant Dispenser

This system transfers fuel directly from underground pipelines to aircraft, offering major advantages in speed and safety for large airports. It features advanced flow measurement systems, hydraulically powered hose reels, and user-friendly control mechanisms. Katmerciler produces these dispensers in both diesel and fully electric versions. Electric models provide an environmentally friendly, zero-emission alternative and feature a low-profile design for easy under-wing access.

By addressing the evolving needs of modern airports, Katmerciler continues to bring together safety, efficiency, and sustainable technology under one roof.

Katmerciler, a dynamic force in the Turkish defense and specialized vehicle superstructure industry, is proud to announce its participation in the prestigious Dubai Airshow 2025, which will take place from November 17-21 in Dubai.
