is available by railway (railway wagons and containers) as well as by trucks.
The history of the «GrosStems» company can be traced back to October 2000
|

when a contract was concluded and signed with the leading German tobacco machinery manufacturer, «Hauni», for delivery of a complete line for production of expanded stem and expanded cut rag.
This unique project, which took a year to be developed, led to the «Hauni» company delivering equipment for running the original HDT (High temperature Dried Tobacco) process. Despite the severe weather during the winter of 2001, a new 11,500-square-meter building was constructed in record time between January and May 2001. In May - June 2001 the technological equipment from Germany was delivered and installation and commissioning began. Meanwhile the technical staff was trained at «Siemens».

After the first supplies of raw materials, the first lot of expanded stem was produced in October 2001.
