02.08.2025

The educational exhibition was visited by the players of Reaktor – the House of Polymers has opened in Nizhnekamsk – this is the largest exposition in Russia dedicated to petrochemicals.


The guide showed and told how polymers are created and where they are used, how to properly sort waste and what types of plastic exist. The most interesting thing is that all the hockey player's equipment and sports equipment – from the stick and puck to the jersey and protective elements (shin pads and etc.) are completely or partially made of petroleum products – ABS plastic, polypropylene, synthetic rubber, composite materials and more.



Reaktor forward Makar Kurbatov:

"We were told that all our hockey equipment consists of polymers, I did not know that before. I expanded my knowledge of the world, it was interesting!"
