Yapı Merkezi Prefabrication Group established in 1978 with considerable experience and know-how in the prefabrication sector, was the first company in her field to obtain the ISO 9001 Quality Assurance certificate.

In 1987, Yapı Merkezi founded Freysaş in partnership with Freyssinet International, a leader in pre-tensioning technology. Since then, Freysaş has completed numerous projects featuring advanced construction technologies such as cable stay systems, post-tensioning, heavy lifting and ground anchorage.

Yapı Konut joined the group in 1994, aiming to develop high quality and homes and accomplishing prestigious housing projects such as Çamkonaklar, Sokullu Estates, NP12 Estates, Şişli Plaza and the Arkeon Housing Complex.
