The Siberian Timber Chemical Plant has completed modernization and started producing new resins
Quick Look
- The Siberian Timber Chemical Plant in the Krasnoyarsk Territory has completed the modernization of the raw material preparation site thanks to a preferential loan from the Federal Investment Fund of 75 million rubles, creating a full production cycle.
- The plant has mastered the production of two new brands of terpene-phenolic resins (TPS-105 and TR-115) and plans to reach a volume of 120 tons per year by 2027 for import substitution in the tire industry.

Why It Matters
The Siberian Timber Chemical Plant was established in 2009 and since 2012 has been engaged in deep processing of turpentine and the production of terpene hydrocarbons. It is part of the Orgkhim holding and is the only Russian manufacturer of terpene-phenolic resins for the tire industry.
The Siberian Timber Chemical Plant in the Krasnoyarsk Territory has completed the modernization of the raw material preparation section, which made it possible to create a full production cycle, reports the regional Ministry of Industry and Trade.
The Siberian Timber Chemical Plant was established in 2009. Since 2012, it has been engaged in deep processing of turpentine and the production of terpene hydrocarbons. Part of the Orgkhim holding.
“A preferential loan from the Industrial Development Fund of 75 million rubles helped create a full production cycle: from the preparation of turpentine to the production of finished resins. The total cost of the project is 100 million rubles,” the statement says.
Using the loan funds, the company updated equipment in the areas of raw material preparation, resin production and granulation, and installed engineering systems. We use our own catalyst synthesis technology.
It is noted that modernization has made it possible to switch to more accessible raw materials - raw turpentine instead of purified sulfate turpentine. The plant has mastered the production of two new brands: terpene-phenol-styrene resin TPS-105 and terpene-phenolic resin TR-115. By 2027, it is planned to reach a volume of 120 tons per year.
The main consumers of the products are Russian tire manufacturers. These additives improve the grip of summer tires on the road.
“The preferential loan helped organize production sites and purchase equipment to expand the raw material base. Financing was provided under the Development Projects program. The enterprise produces components for import-substituting products,” emphasized the Minister of Industry and Trade of the region, Alexander Chernikov.
The project corresponds to the goals of the national projects “New Materials and Chemistry” and “Bioeconomics”.
