Tyumen "Stekroteote" plans to produce 250 million bottles per year

Steklotech aims at producing 250 million bottles this year, also increasing the range of glass containers.

Tyumen glass container factory "Steklotech" plans to produce 250 million bottles in 2018, which is comparable to the volumes of 2016 and 2017, the press service of the governor said.

According to Elena Ostryagina, the general director of the company, these figures fit into the figures of the past and 2016: "The plant is working steadily and our results are good." We can hardly expect a significant increase in the production of glass containers, as six years have passed since production was started, and equipment is becoming obsolete. In particular, we have come to the point where two of our furnaces need hot repair, which allows them not to stop them completely, but to continue working."

This year, Steklotech" will make a bid to increase the range of glass containers.

"We will definitely continue experiments with the form: the first this year will be a new bottle for a series of products of the Tyumen plant" Benat," says Elena Ostryagina.
