Vasily Golubev visited the Don Shipbuilding and Shiprepairing Enterprise «RIF» on the eve of the Day of the Workers of the Sea and River Fleet. The governor inspected a new production site, where boats from high-strength polypropylene are being manufactured.

The creation of innovative vessels made of polymer material on the Don is an important step in the development of modern domestic shipbuilding, says Vasily Golubev.

— The volume of working capital at the enterprise for three years has grown five-fold — from 40 million rubles to 200 million rubles. Obviously, the dynamics are significant. Products manufactured at the enterprise are supplied to different regions of the Russian Federation. Production has a good prospect, — Vasily Golubev is sure.

A unique technology for the construction of boats, catamarans and other products used in water transport and in agriculture was introduced at the plant.

— The only Don company in Russia uses high density polyethylene to create ships, — said Oleg Gryzlov, chairman of the board of directors of Rostov Port.

Unsinkable, non-corrosive vessels have an average life of 30 years.

The head of the region congratulated all the employees of the sea and river fleet on the upcoming professional holiday and on the 270th anniversary of the Rostov port, wished them health and success.
