During a working visit to the Atyrau Region, Askhat Khassenov, Chairman of the Management Board of JSC NC KazMunayGas (KMG), visited KPI, where he inspected production facilities and held a working meeting.
In the first nine months of this year, KPI produced 272,000 tons of polypropylene, exceeding the 2024 total of approximately 249,000 tons.
Head of KMG was informed that during the reporting period, KPI's polypropylene sales in the domestic market increased by almost 90% compared to the same period in 2024. Sales to domestic processors reached 29,000 tons, exceeding planned targets.
Thanks to the opening of additional warehouses in Almaty and Astana, which facilitate stable supplies, the share of imported polypropylene in the domestic market continues to decline, stimulating the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the field of deep polymer processing.
The company continues to increase its share of the domestic market. While KPI collaborated with 15 Kazakhstani companies in 2022, today this number exceeds 135.
KPI has also expanded its product line. Of the 15 brands already developed, 13 are actively used by domestic manufacturers to produce a wide range of products, from packaging and nonwovens to engineering components, and two more brands are undergoing the final stage of homologation, i.e., confirmation of compliance with end consumers.
Therefore, the development of four new brands starting in 2025 is part of a systematic strategy to expand the product portfolio and maximize the plant's technological capabilities.
A. Khassenov set a number of tasks for KPI management aimed at improving production reliability and operational efficiency, further strengthening its commercial position in the domestic market, and developing personnel competencies for working with high-tech equipment.
