The CASE-IN winners from Tyumen visited one of SIBUR's key enterprises

The Polymers team of Tyumen Industrial University returned from Bashkortostan. The tour, organized by SIBUR, became an award for winning the CASE-IN 2025 International Engineering Championship in the field of Petrochemistry. 

One of the key points of the trip was an excursion to the SIBUR POLYEF plant in Blagoveshchensk (Bashkortostan). It is Russia's largest producer of polyethylene terephthalate and terephthalic acid, the most important raw materials for food polymer packaging, the chemical industry, energy and other industries. The students were able to see with their own eyes the advanced technologies used at the factory and appreciate the high level of product quality. 

Ufa, the capital of Bashkortostan, impressed the participants with its versatility. The city combines a rich cultural heritage, modern architecture and picturesque landscapes. The children strolled along the embankment of the Belaya River, visited historical sites and got acquainted with local traditions and cuisine.

The trip to Ufa became a powerful source of inspiration for the Polymers team. The students noted not only the industrial potential of the region, but also its warm atmosphere, hospitable people, delicious cuisine and picturesque nature.

"This journey has become an important part of the professional and personal development for the entire team. Ufa is a dynamic city with a rich history and a promising future, and the SIBUR POLYEF plant is an example of innovative manufacturing in Russia. Thanks to the support of SIBUR, the trip became an unforgettable experience for all participants.", – said Dmitry Belov, a graduate student at TIU.
