Mining and the steppe

Plastic buckets in Zhitikara

Zhitikara is a mining town in the steppe of Kostanay Region, where asbestos is mined. The open pit has a grease depot, staff facilities, and canteens; the town has bakeries, cafes, and shops; and the outskirts have farmsteads with poultry and vegetable gardens. HTI molds buckets for all of them, from 560 ml to 21 L: for grease and cleaning pastes, dough and mayonnaise, poultry grain, and roofing mastic. Buckets travel to Zhitikara by the pallet from our plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone.

The buckets are tapered and nest inside each other, so a storeroom supply takes up less space than the unit count suggests. Every size has a flat lid with a double rim and an OPEN tear strip.

Shelves and racks

Which bucket, and how much space it takes

In a pit storeroom, a cafe fridge, or a farmstead shed, capacity isn't the only thing that matters: the bucket's height decides whether it fits on the shelf. That's why the table lists each bucket's height in millimeters next to its job.

Worth noting: the 18 L bucket is shorter than the 15 L, 286 mm versus 292 mm, because it has a wider 332 mm opening. The 21 L, with the same opening, grows to 333.5 mm. Keep this in mind if the buckets share one rack.

Where the buckets work

Warehouse, locker room, bakery, and homestead

In Zhitikara, a bucket rarely stays in one place: it's issued for a shift, washed, put in the fridge, and carried around the yard. Here are four places in town where HTI packaging handles a specific job, and what people there look for when choosing it: lid, opening, handle, and body color.

A farmstead on the steppe15 L: 303 mm opening, room for a scoop

Lubricants depot and crews

Bulk grease is kept at the depot in 21 L buckets and handed out to crews in one-liter buckets with a handle. The lid snaps into the double rim and keeps pit dust out of the grease between shifts.

Staff facilities

Cleaning pastes for locker rooms and showers are handy in the 11.5 L: with a 295 mm opening, you can take paste out by hand or with a spatula. The white body is easy to label, so the paste bucket won't get mixed up with canteen packaging.

Bakeries and delis

Dough for belyashi and pirozhki fits in 3 and 3.8 L buckets, and fruit butter and jam are kept in the same sizes. Delis portion Korean carrot salad into 2.3 L buckets and manty filling into 8 L.

Farmsteads on the steppe

On the outskirts, people keep chickens and geese and store grain and compound feed in 15 L buckets with lids. The bail handle with a plastic grip comes in handy when carrying the bucket from the shed to the poultry house.

Calculation

Counting pallets for Zhitikara

Choose a bucket and enter a quantity, and the calculator converts it into pallets. Take a pit fuel and lubricants depot: it needs 800 of the 21 L buckets a year, which is two pallets, since one holds 600. A bakery that needs 2,000 of the 3.8 L buckets fits on a single pallet.

How many pieces you need

  • Pallets ship whole, so the number is rounded up.
  • Buckets for the pit, the bakery, and the farmstead can go in one truck.
  • Empty jerry cans don't nest, so a pallet holds fewer of them.
Buying

How to order buckets for Zhitikara

Buckets are sold direct from the factory, in orders of one pallet or more. The steps are the same for a pit storeroom and a bakery; only the order size changes.

  1. 1

    Request

    Describe what you'll store, which sizes you need, how many, and where to deliver. If you want a logo on the wall, mention it in your very first conversation.

  2. 2

    Calculation

    Your sales manager will choose the handle and body color, calculate the pallets, and quote the order price including freight to Zhitikara.

  3. 3

    Your order at the plant

    Your order is assembled at the plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone: the buckets are nested in stacks and secured on pallets. For IML orders, the artwork is approved first.

  4. 4

    Shipping

    The pallets leave with a freight carrier, the shipment is documented within the EAEU, and the paperwork travels with the cargo.

Zhitikara gets its buckets straight from production: your order is prepared and palletized at the HTI plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone, Ak-Chiy village. A freight carrier hauls the cargo, and the paperwork is the same as for any shipment between EAEU countries. When you place the order, your sales manager tells you when to expect the truck and what the run costs. There is no intermediate warehouse in Zhitikara or anywhere in the region.

Pickup from the factory is also possible if you have a truck. If orders from different buyers are headed to Zhitikara, Lisakovsk, and Rudny, your sales manager can suggest how to combine them in one truck.

The fuel and lubricants depot and staff facilities do best buying on an annual plan, bakeries and cafes quarterly, farmsteads before winter, and builders before roofing season starts.

Pallets arrive sorted by model, so the pit storekeeper can check the order against the delivery note in a few minutes.

Version

Design details that matter in Zhitikara

Each HTI bucket size comes in several versions. At the pit, the bakery, and the farmstead, people look for different things, so before you order, it helps to picture who will use the bucket and how.

Lid with a double rim

Seals in grease, paste, and grain all the way around, keeping steppe and pit dust out.

The right handle for the job

A one-liter bucket for crews has a plastic handle, while buckets from 8 L up have a metal bail handle with a plastic grip to take the weight.

OPEN seal

The tear strip with the embossed word OPEN breaks the first time the bucket is opened. An intact strip means no one has taken grease or paste from the bucket yet.

Custom branding

The name of your warehouse, bakery, or farm can be applied with a label or with IML, which won't wash off.

Questions and answers

Zhitikara: questions about buckets

They're sold by the manufacturer, the HTI plant, and they arrive in Zhitikara on full pallets via a freight carrier. Call +996 222 600 292 to place a request, and a sales manager will suggest sizes for your product or material.

Pricing is calculated per order and depends on size, quantity, handle, color, and printing. Your sales manager will send a quote that includes freight. If you need buckets for several departments, send one combined list to get a quote for all items at once.

A freight carrier hauls the pallets from the factory, and the shipment is documented within the EAEU. Your sales manager will tell you the transit time and freight cost when you place the order.

No. Our buckets aren't held in intermediate warehouses: the order for Zhitikara is prepared at the plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone after you send your request.

For handing out per shift, a one-liter bucket with a plastic handle; for the depot, the 21 L. Learn more on our grease buckets page.

Yes, the buckets are molded from food-grade polypropylene. For dough, bakeries use 3 and 3.8 L buckets with a 200 mm opening. See our dough buckets page for details.

They have the same 332 mm opening, but the 21 L is taller: 333.5 mm versus 286. So for the 21 L, raise the shelf or give it the top tier.

There are two ways: a label on the finished bucket, or IML applied during molding. Labels suit trial runs, and IML suits products the bakery makes on a regular basis.

Catalog

HTI buckets for Zhitikara

The HTI catalog lists every bucket with dimensions, weight, and photos. For the region as a whole, see our Kostanay Region page, and for neighboring towns, the pages on buckets for Lisakovsk and packaging for Rudny.
