Our Strategy
Strengthen the company’s reputation
The company’s reputation represents the basis for our relationships with our staff, our clients, our suppliers and partners. We constantly work to strengthen our reputation independently of the current situation in the market. Our company’s reputation is based on good faith in business relationships, commitment to our obligations, financial soundness and stability.
Be a top three leader
We strive to be a top three leader in every market segment we work in. Our leading position in the market enables us to engage the best specialists and suppliers, to provide high-quality logistical and technical services and, eventually, to formulate the best offer for our clients.
Strive for a global reach
Already now we are present in 7 countries and we occupy the 63th place in the global ICIS rating of chemical distributors. We strive to become an international company, in order to implement our knowledge and our capabilities, both in terms of import/export, and in terms of general development of international trade.
Digitalise
UTS Group is actively implementing digital technologies and processes. New technologies open tremendous prospects in improving the business’s transparency and controllability, in information exchange, in making the work of our staff and clients more comfortable, in improving the efficiency of our operation. We strive to be among the leaders in this field, maintaining due respect for our “roots”.
Our Business Areas
We are one of the most experienced and largest distributors of chemical products from leading international and Russian manufacturers in the FSU countries.
Distribution of chemical materials in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine and Belarus
In 2019 we adopted new growth strategy in this area, focussing on functional ingredients. New colleagues from the industry joined our team. In 2020, we completed the establishment of our lab, for which we hired skilled technical specialists with a strong production background.
Distribution of food ingredients and pharma raw materials
In 2019 we launched the “Export” project, aiming to sell Russian-made products abroad. The project’s objective is to capitalise on our contacts with partners in Russia, China, India and in Scandinavian countries, as well as on our reputation. The geographic footprint of this project is constantly expanding.
Exporting chemical materials from Russia and from other countries to Europe, China and India
We offer various solutions in construction in the areas, where we have competitive advantages and reliable long-standing relationships with partners.
Distribution of construction and of other solutions
We produce a number of chemicals under our own trade mark “UTS” in Russia and in China. We also have three production sites for manufacture of special coatings (St. Petersburg), of nonwoven materials (city of Gagarin, Russia) and of sodium metasilicate, as well as of special blocks for mines (city of Lepel, Belarus).
