AYDIN GIDJELER Economic Society expands its production - within next six months the company will equip a new workshop where notebooks will be assembled. Besides, the cases of devices will be manufactured using company’s own technology and will be casted from domestic polypropylene. As the representative of the company shared an interview to ORIENT, high-quality Turkmen polypropylene is the main raw material not only for their enterprise, but also for many others, which were opened in the country after adoptation of the import substitution program.Eziz OVEZOV
In this context, there is a great future for a gas-chemical complex under construction in the village of Kiyanly to manufacture polyethylene and polypropylene. The plant will be able to meet the growing demand of dozens of local private enterprises for this polymer, enabling to increase the production of various products.
Earlier ORIENT reported that in 2017, Turkmenistan produced 84.1 thousand tons of polypropylene, and only 18.9 thousand tons were sold on the domestic market. The rest was exported to foreign countries.
As the Institute for Strategic Planning and Economic Development of Turkmenistan commented, the increase in demand for polypropylene largely reflects the growth of the country's economy as a whole, as it is one of those types of raw materials that are most needed during the expansion of consumer goods production. At the same time, the increase in such products on the market reflects an increase in the purchasing power of citizens, hence - the growth of the well-being of the population.
At present, AYDIN GIDJELER is one of the most successful enterprises involved in the production of import-substituting products. In their first workshop, entrepreneurs have already fully established the technology for the production of LED lamps, which are of high quality and low price compared to imported analogues. In March, the company will launch the production of LED ceiling lamps also, which will come into the market soon.
