We'll suggest the right size for your product, calculate pallets, and quote a price for your order.
Lenger is the center of Tole Bi District, in the foothills next to Shymkent. Farms around town make sour cream, suzma, kaymak, kurt, and cheese, orchards grow sour cherries, sweet cherries, and apples, and the buyers for all of it are often at the bazaars of the big city next door. For these farms, HTI makes food-grade buckets from a small 560 ml up to 21 L, delivered to Lenger by the pallet straight from production. Here you'll find buckets matched to dairy and orchard products, an order calculator, and how to buy.
Lenger, Turkestan Region: buckets across the region
Lenger buys packaging mainly for two things: dairy from the farms and fruit from the orchards. Each size lists how farms in Tole Bi District use it.
Sour cream, kaymak, and suzma for the counter.
Cottage cheese, brined cheese, jam.
Fruit picking, feed, and wholesale.
Containers for farm shops, fruit growers, and tourist camps in the foothills.
Jerry cans for kumis from the summer pastures (jailau) and water for apiaries and orchard crews.
Yellow and red buckets for the district hospital, village clinics, and first-aid posts at tourist camps.
Farm kaymak for the Shymkent bazaar: the 80 mm tall bucket sits in a single row in the display case.
Sour cream for shoppers who take home just a little: plastic handle, lid with an OPEN tamper-evident tear strip.
Suzma in a clear body with no handle: shoppers can see how thick it is without opening the lid.
Homemade churned butter for stands on the road to Shymkent, with the handle molded into the body.
A liter of sour cream weighs about a kilogram, a handy measure for both the farm and the shopper.
Sour cherry and sweet cherry jam from foothill orchards, in a clear bucket for the market.
Cottage cheese sold by weight for Lenger delis and cafes: a scoop fits easily through the 200 mm opening.
Brynza in brine for bazaar sales: pieces of cheese come out whole through the 200 mm opening.
Wholesale kurt for resellers: the dry balls stay under the lid, protected from dust.
Ayran and katyk for the town's cafes and canteens: the bail handle with plastic grip carries a full bucket.
Picking cherries and apples in Tole Bi District orchards: the plastic grip won't cut into your palm.
Whey and skim milk for feeding calves, carried around the farm by the bail handle.
Compound feed and bran for cows on backyard farms: the lid keeps dust and birds out of the feed.
Grain and premixes for fattening livestock go in our largest bucket, with a 332 mm opening.
Irimshik and zhent from Lenger's home dairies, to go with tea: the 250 ml hexagonal container weighs 13 g and barely adds to the weight of the purchase.
Raspberries and currants from foothill gardens for travelers stopping along the highway: a 385 ml round container, Ø 118 × 54 mm, keeps the berries in a shallow layer.
Cottage cheese with honey and nuts, breakfast for a guest at a tourist camp in the gorge: the 400 ml hexagonal container arrives at the table with its lid on.
Tole Bi District growers take their first-pick sweet cherries to Shymkent bazaars in 550 ml round containers that weigh 18.8 g each.
Cottage cheese pancakes (syrniki) and cheese-filled crepes from a farm deli go into a 122 × 173 mm flat tray in a single layer.
Kumis from the high mountain pastures is sold along the road to Shymkent in 5 L jerry cans: molded-in handle, screw cap, 240 g empty.
Water for the apiary and for orchard crews in the foothills: a 10 L jerry can, 201 × 234 × 296 mm, weighing 420 g.
Rural health post in a foothill village of Tole Bi District: a patient gets a shot, the valve removes the needle, and the one-liter bucket measures Ø 132.5 × 121 mm.
First-aid post at a tourist camp in the gorge: scrapes from the mountain trails get cleaned, and the cotton and gloves go into a small yellow 2.3 L bucket.
Vaccination room at the district outpatient clinic before the school year: syringes go into a three-liter bucket, and the lid valve removes the needle.
Ultrasound room at the Lenger district hospital: the probe and exam table are wiped down with wipes from the dispenser lid of a 3.8 L bucket, Ø 200 × 176 mm.
Wound care room at the district hospital during haymaking and harvest: cuts and bruises, with the syringes and bandages going into a yellow 5.6 L bucket with a needle remover.
Lenger maternity hospital: a yellow 11.2 L bucket stands by the delivery room and is carried out by its plastic handle after each shift; it weighs 271 g empty.
Infectious disease ward at Tole Bi District Hospital: Class C waste (by Kyrgyz sanitary classification) is collected in a red 11.5 L bucket that weighs 307 g.
Lenger's district outpatient clinic also serves foothill villages: a day's combined waste from all exam rooms goes into an 18 L bucket, Ø 332 × 286 mm.
Villages farther up the gorges are far from the district hospital, so the local clinic stores Class B waste in a closed 21 L bucket, 600 per pallet.
Dairy is sold fresh, so the OPEN tamper-evident tear strip matters to farms: it shows shoppers the bucket hasn't been opened since filling. Empty buckets nest in stacks, so spare packaging takes up almost no room in the dairy.
The table covers farm and orchard products from around Lenger. For each one, it shows the size to start with and how many fit on a pallet. If you sell both at retail and to cafes, take two sizes: a small one for the counter and a large one for the kitchen.
| Product | Where from | Volume | Per pallet | Guide |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kaymak, sour cream | dairy farms | 560 ml | 7,200 | dairy products |
| Suzma | home dairies | 850 ml | 7,200 | packaging for dairy plants |
| Butter | farm shops | 900 ml | 7,200 | butter |
| Kurt, brynza | on-farm cheesemakers | 3.8 L | 2,800 | kurt and cheese |
| Sour cherry jam | foothill orchards | 2.3 L | 3,300 | jam and fruit butter |
| Cherry and apple picking | fruit growers | 11.5 L | 816 | berry buckets |
| Compound feed, premixes | backyard farms | 18 L | 600 | feed and premixes |
Dairy retail runs on small buckets: a single pallet holds 7,200 of the 560, 850, or 900 ml size. Farms take the large sizes for their own use, for feed and harvest, and those ship on the same truck.
Tole Bi District makes its living from livestock and orchards, and its big market is right next door in Shymkent. So packaging here is chosen with an eye to how the product will travel to the city and how shoppers will see it. Dairy and jam often go to market in Shymkent, while feed and orchard buckets stay on the farm.
Sour cream, kaymak, and katyk get packed every day. For the counter, farms use the 560 ml and one-liter sizes; for cafes, the 8 L with a bail handle. A one-liter bucket of sour cream is almost exactly a kilogram, which makes it easy for the farm to keep track of sales.
Kurt is dried and sold year-round, and brynza is kept in brine. The 3.8 L and 5.6 L suit both: a wide opening and a tight lid protect the product on the way to the bazaar.
Sour cherries, sweet cherries, and apples are picked into 11.5 L buckets with a plastic grip. Part of the harvest is made into jam and sold in clear 2.3 L buckets, so the color of the jam shows at a glance.
Farm stands on the road to Shymkent sell dairy, butter, and jam. They need a mix of small sizes in one delivery, and a label is an easy way to add the farm's brand.
The calculator on the right converts units into pallets: choose a bucket and enter the quantity. A farm outside Lenger that packs kaymak orders 7,000 of the 560 ml buckets for the quarter, which is one pallet. A fruit grower who needs 1,000 of the 11.5 L buckets gets two.
The minimum order is one pallet, shipped directly from the factory. The steps below work for farms, cheesemakers, and fruit growers alike.
Call +996 222 600 292 or leave your number. Tell us the product, the sizes, and how many buckets you go through in a month or a season.
Your sales manager will suggest a size and handle for your product and work out the pallets and the order price, including shipping to Lenger.
If you want your name on the bucket, agree on a label or in-mold labeling (IML). In dairy retail, it helps shoppers recognize your farm.
Pallets are assembled at our plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone (FEZ) and sent by freight carrier as a shipment within the EAEU. The paperwork travels with the cargo.
Buckets for Lenger ship from the HTI plant in the Bishkek FEZ, Ak-Chiy village, and travel to Kazakhstan with a freight carrier. The shipment is handled within the EAEU, and your sales manager will tell you how long it takes and what it costs when you place your order. HTI has no warehouses or pickup points in Lenger or Shymkent.
Farms do well to keep extra packaging on hand: dairy sells every day, and running out of buckets stops sales. Empty buckets sit in nested stacks and take up almost no space.
If you sell both in Shymkent and locally, one order can cover both outlets. Give our sales manager the unloading address, whether it's in Lenger or a village in the district.
Orchards need packaging by the start of the cherry harvest, while dairy farms need it steadily all year. So farms with both livestock and orchards often split their order into two deliveries: one in spring for the harvest and one in fall for winter dairy.
Pages for the region and nearby towns, with packaging matched to local products.
Dairy has to sell fresh and clean, so the right bucket version is part of earning a shopper's trust. Here are four details that both the farmer and the person buying their sour cream look at.
As long as the embossed tear strip is intact, nobody has opened the bucket since it left the farm. For sour cream and kaymak, that's the strongest selling point at the bazaar.
Suzma, brynza in brine, and sour cherry jam show through the body. Every size comes in clear.
A white bucket looks clean, and labels with the packing date and farm name stick to it well.
A label works for a trial run, while IML is fused into the wall during molding and survives washing. Learn more on our IML page.
Directly from the HTI plant: orders start at one pallet, ship from our production site in Bishkek, and are delivered to Lenger by freight carrier. Call +996 222 600 292, and our sales manager will help you choose the sizes.
For the counter, the 560 ml and one-liter; for cafes, the 3.8 L and 8 L. For a product-by-product breakdown, see our dairy buckets page.
Pricing is calculated for each order based on size, quantity, handle, color, and printing. Your sales manager will quote it together with the cost of shipping to Lenger.
No, HTI has no warehouses in Shymkent or Lenger. Buckets come straight from the plant in Ak-Chiy village.
By the pallet through a freight carrier, as a shipment within the EAEU. Your sales manager will confirm delivery time and cost to Lenger when you place the order.
Yes, the 3.8 L and 5.6 L are the usual choice for dry kurt: the lid keeps dust off the balls. The same sizes work for brynza in brine. See our page on buckets for kurt and cheese.
Yes, they're loaded onto one truck, with each model on its own pallet.
Yes, with a label or IML printing. A label is handy for a first order; IML suits ongoing packing, when the brand has to stand up to washing.
Dimensions, empty weight, and photos of every bucket are in the catalog. An overview of packaging across Turkestan Region has its own page. For the big city next door, read about packaging for Shymkent, and fruit growers will find the Saryagash page useful.
Tell us your product, fill size, and where you sell: in Lenger or in Shymkent. Our sales manager will pick the buckets and work out the pallets and shipping. If you have both a farm and an orchard, list everything at once for a more accurate estimate.
