We'll suggest the right size for your product, calculate pallets, and quote a price for your order.
The Trans-Ili Alatau foothills, Aport apple orchards, greenhouses and dairy farms around Almaty, construction sites in Kaskelen and Konaev: they all buy packaging by the bucket. The HTI plant molds food-grade buckets from 560 ml to 21 L, white and clear, and ships them across the region by the pallet. Below you'll find every size with what local farms and producers put in it, recommendations by product, an order calculator, and how to order.
Fourteen sizes in three groups: small buckets for the counter, medium ones for kitchens and production, and large ones for harvest storage and construction. Under each size, you'll see what it's most often used for in Almaty Region. Click a card to see dimensions, empty weight, and photos.

All buckets are round and taper toward the bottom, so empty ones nest inside each other: a pallet of small buckets holds thousands. Every bucket comes with a flat lid and an OPEN tamper-evident tear strip below the rim.
Farms in the region supply both Almaty and their own district markets, so the same product often goes into different sizes. The table shows the go-to size and how many of those buckets fit on one pallet.
| Product | Where it's made | Volume | Per pallet | Learn more |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Honey | foothill apiaries, Enbekshikazakh District | 1 L | 6,480 | honey buckets |
| Apple butter, jam | Aport processing, Talgar and Esik | 2.3 L | 3,300 | jam and fruit butter |
| Sour cream, kaymak, cottage cheese | dairy farms near Almaty | 560 ml | 7,200 | dairy products |
| Tomato paste, lecho | greenhouse farms | 3 L | 2,800 | adjika and pastes |
| Pickles, sauerkraut | delis and canteens | 5.6 L | 1,920 | pickles |
| Apples and berries in the orchard | fruit farms | 11.5 L | 816 | berry buckets |
| Putty, adhesive | finishing crews | 18 L | 600 | putty and primer |
Units per pallet determine how much truck space your order takes up. A pallet holds 6,480 one-liter buckets but only 600 eighteen-liter ones, so an orchard and a finishing crew with the same budget end up with very different shipment volumes.
The region forms a ring around Almaty: farms that feed the city, and suburbs that are growing fast. That gives four groups of bucket buyers, each with its own way of choosing a size.
Talgar and Enbekshikazakh districts are apple country and the home of the Alma-Ata Aport apple. For the harvest, growers use 11.5 L buckets with a bail handle and plastic grip. For fruit butter and jam for sale, they pick clear 2.3 and 3 L buckets so shoppers can see the color and thickness of the product.
Honey from mountain and steppe apiaries sells at Almaty bazaars, in district towns, and to tourists along the roads to the gorges. Beekeepers pack retail portions in 850 ml and one-liter buckets, sell to wholesale buyers in 5.6 L buckets with a metal bail handle, and extract honey into 21 L buckets.
Suburban farms bring sour cream, kaymak, and cottage cheese into the city every day. Display case sizes are 560 and 800 ml, cafes and canteens get buckets from 3.8 L up, and the farm's own feed and premixes are stored in 21 L buckets under a tight lid.
Kaskelen, Talgar, and Konaev keep growing with new residential blocks and dacha communities. Crews need 15 to 21 L buckets for mixes and mixing water, while plants that pack putty and primer need the same sizes with their logo.
Choose a bucket and enter how many you need for the season or the month, and the calculator shows the number of pallets. Here's an example from an orchard near Talgar: 1,500 of the 11.5 L buckets for the harvest come to two pallets. A fruit butter maker that goes through 10,000 clear 2.3 L buckets a season gets four pallets.
Buckets are sold in orders of one pallet or more. The process is the same for an orchard in Esik and a plant in Konaev.
Tell us the product, sizes, quantity, and your town. If you want your own brand on the bucket, mention it right away, since it affects lead time.
Our sales manager will match buckets to your product, work out the pallets, and quote the order price including delivery to your location in the region.
The plant assembles the pallets at its warehouse in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone (FEZ). If you've ordered IML printing, we approve the artwork first and then mold the run.
A freight carrier takes the pallets to Kazakhstan, and the shipment is handled within the EAEU. The order documents travel with the cargo.
Buckets ship to the region by the pallet from our plant in the Bishkek FEZ, Ak-Chiy village. Deliveries are arranged within the EAEU and carried out by a freight carrier, and our sales manager quotes delivery time and cost along with your order estimate. HTI has no warehouse in the region, so every order is assembled at the plant.
If orders from several farms in a district are headed the same way, they can be combined on one truck. Mention this to our sales manager when you order: it makes it easier to fill the whole truck.
For seasonal buyers, timing matters. Orchards order harvest buckets before picking starts, apiaries before honey extraction, and construction sites in spring, when finishing season begins. The earlier you send your request, the more smoothly we can assemble an order in the sizes you need.
Towns with their own page are linked: there you'll find packaging matched to local producers.
Products from the region sell at bazaars, through Almaty retail chains, and directly to cafes. Your sales channel decides which bucket version will pay off.
Fruit butter, honey, and berries are visible through the wall, and bazaar shoppers buy with their eyes. Clear buckets come in every size from 560 ml to 21 L.
For Almaty stores and chains: the white body is opaque, so a label with ingredients, date, and barcode reads clearly.
An embossed tear strip below the rim shows the receiving clerk and the shopper that the bucket hasn't been opened since filling.
The image is fused into the wall during molding and won't wash off. A label works well for a trial order, and IML for regular runs.
Yes. HTI sells buckets direct from its factory in Bishkek, in orders of one pallet or more. Call +996 222 600 292 or request a callback: a sales manager will ask about your product and quantity and recommend the right sizes.
Pricing is calculated per order and depends on bucket size, quantity, handle type, body color, and printing. A sales manager will quote the price including delivery to your town or district center.
By the pallet via a freight carrier, with the shipment documented as trade within the EAEU. Your sales manager confirms delivery time and cost when preparing your estimate.
No. We always ship from our plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone, in Ak-Chiy village. Each order is put together specifically for you.
Most often the 11.5 L: its metal bail handle with a plastic grip won't dig into your palm under load. For berries, shallower buckets work better; see our page on buckets for berries.
Yes, the buckets are molded from food-grade polypropylene. For retail counters, packers choose the 850 ml and 1 L sizes; for wholesale, the 5.6 L. Details are on our honey buckets page.
Yes. Small, medium, and large buckets ship on one truck together with food containers and jerry cans. Each model travels on its own pallet, which makes receiving at your warehouse easier.
Yes, with a label or IML. A label is more practical for a trial order, while IML suits ongoing production runs.
Dimensions, empty weight, and photos of every bucket are in the catalog. The city of Almaty has its own page on packaging for Almaty, and for neighboring areas, see the Zhetysu Region page.
Tell us your product, fill size, and nearest district center. A sales manager will pick the buckets and calculate pallets and delivery.
