First Polypropylene Packaging Materials Factory Launched in Russia's Trans-Baikal Region, Filling Regional Gap with Annual Capacity of 1.7 Million Units

The production facility "Phoenix" for polypropylene packaging materials has been completed in the Trans-Baikal Territory of Russia, and a grand opening ceremony was held to mark the commencement of operations. The company specializes in the large-scale production of polypropylene mesh woven bags, which are used for the storage and transportation of fruits and vegetables. Currently, there are no similar enterprises in the region.

For the Baikal Region, the establishment of this factory fills a long-standing gap in the local industry. Previously, packaging materials had to be procured and transported from other regions, resulting in high costs.

According to Zargalema Badmazhapova, the Minister of Economic Development of the Trans-Baikal Territory, "The total investment in the project exceeds 24 million rubles, of which 18 million rubles comes from the support of the Industrial Development Fund of the Trans-Baikal Territory. This fund provides preferential loans through the 'Manufacturing Industry' program, specifically for the purchase of polypropylene woven bag production lines."

The mesh woven bags produced by the factory have high strength performance and can carry large volume goods. The fruit and vegetable specific mesh bags are designed with optimized mesh holes - ensuring breathability and freshness of the internal products while preventing them from falling out. The products will be supplied to enterprises engaged in fruit and vegetable wholesale, greenhouse farms, agricultural complexes and private enterprises in the Trans-Baikal region and surrounding areas, while also meeting the group's own needs. "Feniks" belongs to the "Chernovskiy Vegetable Growing" enterprise group and also engages in the sale of fruits and vegetables. The factory plans to produce no less than 1.7 million polypropylene woven bags annually.
