On June 23 at 10:00, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Republic of Tatarstan (8 Ostrovsky St., 1st Floor Conference Hall) will held the presentation of the information and analytical system dubbed “Promotion of Goods from the Republic of Tatarstan to Foreign Markets” developed by the Tatarstan Committee for Social and Economic Monitoring.

The system monitors the development of the republic’s trade relations in the territory of 63 constituent entities of the Russian Federation, with which Tatarstan maintains active economic and commercial contacts; this would be useful to marketing services of republic’s enterprises.

It is expected that the event will be attended by representatives of the republic’s enterprises manufacturing the following products: buses, trucks and cars, gasoline, vodka and alcoholic beverages, vehicle tyres, synthetic rubbers, fuel oil, paints and varnishes, footwear, diesel fuel, tractors, steel pipes, household refrigerators and freezers, medicinal products, hosiery, cardboard, excavators, and beer.

The Russian Helicopters handed over to the customer two Mi-8MTV-1 helicopters manufactured by the Kazan Helicopters under the contract with Skol Airlines. The contract for aircraft delivery was signed in late December 2016; the helicopters were assembled at the Kazan Helicopters in 6 months’ time.

New aircraft will be used in Surgut for both passenger and cargo transportation. The Mi-8MTV-1 multipurpose transport helicopter has unique performance and operational characteristics. The helicopter can be used in almost all climatic zones. The design and the equipment of the Mi-8MTV-1 helicopter allow operations with autonomous deployment from unprepared ground areas. The helicopter can be equipped with an external load sling system for transporting oversize cargo.

Mi-8MTV-1 is a medium helicopter with improved performance characteristics, based on the Mi-8T. The new modification fundamentally differs from its predecessor with a more powerful power plant package, which comprises two gas turbine engines TV3-117VM and a main gearbox VR-14. Each engine is rated at 2200 hp. Its maximum external load is up to 4 tonnes and depends on flight range, altitude of landing pads above sea level, air temperature, and other factors.

On June 19, 2017, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Tatarstan, jointly with the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, held a Polymer Day in the traditional format of a communicative platform. The event dealt with a number of issues related to the expansion of the branded assortment of plastics for the production of automotive components, their testing, and problems of localising polymer products for automakers.

The participants to the event showed great interest in the opening of the Exotest Rus laboratory for testing plastics, and expressed their interest in creating the Centre for Innovative Technologies in Production of Polymer Goods by Haitian International.

The discussions were also attended by representatives of Nizhnekamskneftekhim, Tatkhimplast, Avtokomponent, A. Schulman, Ikar Ltd and others, leading automakers such as KAMAZ, Avtovaz-Renault-Nissan Alliance, JV Ford Sollers, UAZ, GAZ Group, and representatives of scientific institutions.

At the end of the Polymer Day, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Industry and Trade of Tatarstan Albert Karimov and Director General of the Specialised Organisation for the Polymer Cluster of Automotive Components Albert Suleymanov signed an agreement on establishing an industrial cluster for polymer automotive components in the Republic of Tatarstan.
