History
The factory was established in 1978. After the collapse of the Soviet Union the factory worked with a minimum load, resulting in idle equipment, and at last it saw bankruptcy. Since late 2006, the factory was ready to be sold off by the government. In 2009 PVC-Himprom Ltd got the rights for this plant as a private factory. Before 2007 PVC Khimprom used this plant via lease from the Ukrainian government.
