Iranian Company Exports 9 Million Dollars of Polymer, Masterbatch Annually
Pouya Polymer Tehran Company (PPT) is active in the field of masterbatch and compound production, and while supplying a major part of the needs of downstream production companies in Iran, it exports over 30% of its products to different states, including South Korea, Germany, Japan, Russia, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkmenistan, Turkey, Canada, Iraq and Pakistan, and the countries of Central Asia and Caucasus.
“The PPT company makes different products and supplies the needs of various industries. During the last 20 years, we have been able to successfully produce all types of compounds and related masterbatches and provide them to industries,” said Mohsen Honarian, the managing-director of the company.
“The company's products include compounds covering metal pipes and compounds and masterbatches of pipes and irrigation tapes and geomembrane sheets and products related to modern agricultural industries,” he added.
“The annual nominal capacity of the company and its subsidiaries is over 120,000 tons in the field of production of various polymer mixtures and engineering compounds. Also, last year, we exported nearly $9 million worth of goods and we were able to win the title of the best exporter of the year,” Honarian said.
In a relevant development last year, researchers at an Iranian knowledge-based company had also succeeded in production of six groups of advanced and engineering polymers.
Based on an agreement signed between the Iranian Vice-Presidency for Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy and the knowledge-based company, at least six groups of polymers with special properties will be fully indigenized within four years.
The knowledge-based company started 26 years ago with the aim of producing composites based on polymers, relying on the research and expertise of the Iranian manpower and using modern equipment and technology.
The company is equipped with a specialized polymer laboratory and produces a wide range of advanced polymer products and compounds, including composites reinforced with mineral fillers, glass fibers, impact-resistant, fire- and heat-resistant polymer composites, various polymer masterbatches and special alloys.
