Barnaul Plant


The Barnaul Machine Plant JSC is one of the leading producers of industrial goods and ammunition in Russia. The plant’s history goes far in the past to the period of Alexander I. The Emperor ordered the opening one of the first cartridge plants in St-Petersburg in 1869. During World War I the plant supplied the Russian Army. The plant operated out of St-Petersburg until the Civil War when the plant moved to the Moscow region. During World War II under the threat of a Moscow siege, by German Forces, the plant was relocated to Barnaul, where the production of various types of cartridges began. Barnaul sent ammunition to the Soviet Army a month later and the plant produced almost 50% of the cartridges used by the Soviet Army. The city, where the Barnaul Machine-Tool Plant is located, is in an accessible geographic region. Directional railways, one of the main highways of the country, and an international airport, surround the plant. These various modes of transportation allow for the successful transportation of goods. The most substantial plant activity is the manufacturing of sport-hunting cartridges for rifle and shotgun cartridges. The company is currently one of the largest suppliers of cartridges in Russia. It also delivers cartridges regularly to America, Europe, and Asia.
