- Polad has launched a new facility in the Samara Region to manufacture automotive mastics and adhesives.
- The plant will supply sealing and fastening materials for domestically produced vehicles.
A new phase of industrial expansion in Russia has begun with the launch of Polad automotive mastics production at the company’s manufacturing site in the Samara Region. The facility, located in Otradny, was officially commissioned on March 13 and represents a significant investment aimed at strengthening domestic automotive component manufacturing. The project required approximately 184 million rubles, with nearly RUB 136 million financed through the federal Industrial Development Fund under the specialized Automotive Components support program designed to localize key vehicle materials.
Production Capacity and Vehicle Applications
The plant is designed to manufacture up to 1,500 tons of automotive mastics and around 80 tons of adhesives annually. These materials are primarily formulated using domestic raw materials, ensuring local content levels exceeding 80 percent. The products are intended for use in assembling vehicles produced by brands such as Lada, UAZ, and GAZelle. They play an essential role in fastening vehicle components, improving sealing performance, enhancing sound insulation, and protecting structures from temperature fluctuations and chemical exposure. Polad automotive mastics production strengthens supply chain localization while supporting domestic automotive manufacturing.
