Militzer & Münch Ukraine transports insulator parts from Shanghai to Ukraine, and forwards the finished goods to Vietnam for a producer of polymeric insulators.
Militzer & Münch Ukraine’s customer designs and manufactures polymeric insulators for current lines, open switching stations and substations as well as AC overhead lines for railways. The insulators are produced in the Donetsk region according to international safety specifications before they are exported to Vietnam.
Militzer & Münch Ukraine handles the import as well as the export for their customer. “We import parts from Shanghai to Ukraine, mainly via sea freight in 20 foot containers, sometimes also via air,” says Yuliya Bezverkha, Marketing & Sales at Militzer & Münch Ukraine. “The goods we transport are fastening elements that connect the insulators to the current line and the transmission tower.”
After they have arrived in Ukraine, the goods are trucked from the Port of Odessa or Kiev Airport to the production factory in the Donetsk region. Here, the polymeric insulators are produced and packed in wooden boxes for on-forwarding. The finished insulators are transported to Ho Chi Minh City, mostly by air. “The most important advantage of products produced in Ukraine is European quality at Chinese prices,” says Yuliya Bezverkha.
