SIBUR Increases Its Butyl Rubber Production Capacity in Tolyatti
OREANDA-NEWS. Tolyattikauchuk, a subsidiary of SIBUR, has commissioned a third butyl rubber separation line, expanding its production capacity from 48 ktpa to 53 ktpa.
The new line is part of an investment project to upgrade the butyl rubber production facility, increasing its design capacity, improving equipment reliability and reducing environmental impact.
The automated butyl rubber production line developed by Welding (Switzerland) includes extruders, dryers, moulding machines, a conveyor belt and other equipment and is distinguished by highly mechanised production processes.
The new line will adopt Tolyattikauchuk’s existing butyl rubber production technology with its unique solution polymerisation method, which consistently achieves a high product quality.
Background:
Tolyattikauchuk produces three types of rubbers (butyl, copolymer and isoprene), monomers, fractions and high-octane fuel additives.
Butyl rubber is used in the tyre industry, including for the production of shaper-vulcaniser bladders and rubber fabrics, for health care and food products, and in the construction industry.
Around 70% of Tolyattikauchuk’s output is exported. Synthetic rubber importers include the USA, Canada, Spain, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro, Hungary, the Netherlands, Turkey, France, Belgium, India, Taiwan, Vietnam, Korea, Indonesia and other countries.
SIBUR is a uniquely positioned vertically integrated gas processing and petrochemicals company. We own and operate Russia’s largest gas processing business in terms of associated petroleum gas processing volumes and are the leader in the Russian petrochemicals industry.
As of 30 September 2013, SIBUR operated 27[i] production sites across Russia and employed more than 28,000[ii] personnel. We serve over 1,500 large customers operating in the energy, automotive, construction, fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), chemical and other industries in approximately 60 countries.
i] Including three gas processing plants (GPPs) operated by OOO Yugragazpererabotka, SIBUR’s JV with RN Holding (formerly TNK-BP Holding), which is no longer consolidated as of the second quarter of 2013.
[ii] Excluding personnel of non-consolidated joint ventures.
