“Technical re-equipment of our transport direction allows us to develop products supplies, which efficient system is as important as high production volumes. That was the very reason why new generation freight cars gained our interest. Increasing the quality of products and the reliability of their supply, we take care of our customers”.

Yevgenia Khomyakova, CEO at Azot SPA TD

“Our company produces more than 1 million tonnes of cargo each year. The UWC tank cars will reduce our railway tariff payments and servicing costs, which is very important for the economics of our company. This is especially important now, as we are commissioning M-450/A-135, a combined production facility for methanol and ammonia, which will double our output. The M450/A135 combined methanol and ammonia production facility is one of the most advanced of its kind in the world, and its output will be transported by unique tank cars produced by TikhvinChemMash”.

Eugenia Khomyakova, Director General at transport directorate SPA Azot

“For several years now the company has made robust efforts to renew its fleet of rolling stock, and the fleet of 295 tank cars previously acquired from UWC has been in active operation on the Russian Railways network and in the territories of neighbouring countries. Due to the significant growth in volume of goods produced and transported as rail freights, the company is seeking to acquire new generation rolling stock in order to provide high levels of efficiency and maximum reliability. Our experience of working with UWC has shown that the supplier cares about the quality of its products, can meet its manufacturing deadlines, and is able to find the most convenient solution possible for each of its clients. We care about producing high-quality chemical products and ensuring that they are delivered safely to customers, and so choosing the right supplier for our rolling stock is hugely important to us.”
