ThyssenKrupp Awarded FEED Contract for Polypropylene Plant from Russia
The plant construction business arm of ThyssenKrupp was awarded a contract to carry out the front end engineering and design (FEED) of a polypropylene plant in Russia in May 2012.
The single-train polypropylene facility is being constructed for the wholly owned subsidiary of Sibur named ZapSibNeftechim. Sibur is the largest company engaging in petrochemicals and gas processing in Russia.

The plant will turn out polypropylene under various brands for use in different applications such as consumer goods, in the manufacture of automotive body parts and in packaging and textile industries.
