Orzax Introduces 15,000 Children to Science with "Deney'imli Çocuklar" Project

Orzax, Turkey's leading dietary supplement market player, introduced thousands of children to science throughout 2025 through the Orzax R&D Centre experience area created in collaboration with KidZania Istanbul. Over 15,000 children participated in Orzax R&D Centre activities during the year, experiencing an interactive, pharmacology-based learning environment.

In the experience area at KidZania Istanbul, children take on the role of pharmacologist, analysing the biological effects of vitamins, minerals and probiotics, conducting experiments with safety equipment and evaluating their results. This process enables children not only to gain scientific knowledge but also to develop transferable skills for the future such as analytical thinking, teamwork and a sense of responsibility.

Throughout 2025, Orzax did not limit itself to KidZania visitors but also welcomed children from different backgrounds at the Orzax R&D Centre through collaborations with various NGOs such as Gülmek İyileştirir Derneği and TOÇEV. This inclusive approach was a concrete reflection of Orzax's vision of making science accessible to every child rather than treating it as a privileged domain.

"Children with Experiments" project creates lasting awareness
The "Children with Experiments" project, which forms the foundation of Orzax's long-term corporate social responsibility approach, aims to make scientific awareness permanent from an early age. The project, which began its journey in a container settlement in Hatay in 2023, expanded to broader audiences with the Orzax R&D Centre at KidZania Istanbul as of 2025. At this stage, the project has transformed science from something observed into something experienced.

Children taking on the "pharmacologist" role at the Orzax R&D Centre at KidZania Istanbul learn by directly experiencing the effects of vitamins, minerals and probiotics on human health. Commenting on the project's societal impact, Orzax Marketing and Corporate Communications Director Müge Turan evaluated the centre's success in these words: "At the Orzax R&D Centre, we aimed for our children to be not just visitors but researchers who touch science, dare to ask questions and experience the excitement of creation. The fact that over 15,000 children experienced this firsthand in 2025 proves how right our step was. With this project, we go beyond making children love science. We are making a long-term investment in our children's way of thinking; we aim to equip them with an analytical perspective. Our greatest motivation is to make science accessible at an early age and thereby contribute meaningfully to the scientific and social development of our country."

Investing in the future in the light of science
Orzax positions this experience area conducted with KidZania Istanbul as a strategic platform at the intersection of R&D and quality focus, domestic production vision and corporate social responsibility understanding. The high participation and social impact achieved throughout 2025 demonstrates that Orzax is consistently advancing its goal of a generation that grows with science, questions and creates.
