The Polimir plant plans to launch the production of additives for automotive gasoline

The "Polimir" plant of OJSC "Naftan" is considering the possibility of organizing the production of additives for automotive gasoline. This was announced in an interview with the newspaper "Vestnik Naftana" by the General Director of OJSC "Naftan" (Novopolotsk, Vitebsk region), Oleg Zhebin.

Currently, the issue of organizing the production of additives for automotive gasoline by the "Polimir" plant is being worked out. The implementation of this decision will allow the enterprise to be supplied with the necessary component for the production of automotive gasoline of grade not lower than AI-95.

According to Oleg Zhebin, such synergy provides tangible benefits: minimal costs for raw material delivery, stable supplies regardless of market fluctuations. This is an example of import substitution: previously, before the merger, raw materials for "Polimir" were partially purchased through imports.
