At-Bashy is a district center in southern Naryn Region, set in a high mountain valley where life revolves around livestock on summer pastures. The area sends out sour cream, butter, kaymak (clotted cream), kurt (dried cheese balls), and kumis, and tourists pass through on their way to the Tash-Rabat caravanserai. For the district's farms and guesthouses, HTI molds food-grade buckets from 560 ml to 21 L with lids and OPEN tamper-evident tear strips, and ships them to At-Bashy by freight carrier from our plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone (FEZ).
At-Bashy, Naryn Region: buckets across the region
All fourteen sizes, each with a note on how it's used in At-Bashy District: on summer pastures, on dairy farms, at the bazaar, and in guesthouses along the road to Tash-Rabat. Open a card to see the bucket's dimensions and weight.

Farms in the district are far apart, and packaging rides in the truck bed with other purchases. Empty buckets nest in a stack, so they don't take up much room. Every bucket comes with a flat lid and an OPEN tamper-evident tear strip.
Almost everything the district sells is dairy. The table shows which size to use for each product, who it's for, and how many of those buckets fit on a pallet. The rows run from store counter to pasture.

In At-Bashy District, buckets are mainly for people who keep livestock. But they're also bought by households selling dairy, by guesthouses, and by roadside cafes. Below are four of these buyers and the sizes they start with.
In summer, livestock moves up to high pastures, and the milk is processed on the spot. Milking calls for 11.5 L buckets with lids, kurt for 5.6 L, and water for 15 L with a plastic grip. Empty buckets go up to the summer camp in a stack: they nest inside each other and take up almost no room.
Households in the district center make sour cream, cottage cheese, butter, and kaymak to sell. The 560 ml and 800 ml sizes work well in a store display, and the one-liter bucket with a plastic handle suits the bazaar. An empty 560 ml bucket weighs 23 g and the 800 ml weighs 29.5 g, so the packaging adds almost nothing to the weight.
Tourists head to Tash-Rabat and stay in guesthouses and yurts. Hosts need 3.8 to 8 L buckets for the kitchen, plus kurt in clear 2.3 L buckets and honey in 850 ml to sell. Roadside cafes keep shashlik meat in 3.8 L buckets with a 200 mm opening.
In winter, livestock is kept in sheep barns, and farms need packaging for grain, salt, and supplements: 18 to 21 L with a bail handle, plastic grip, and tight lid. The lid keeps snow off the feed, and the grip won't cut into your palm when the bucket is full.
Choose a bucket and the quantity for the season, and the calculator works out the pallets. Example from At-Bashy: a farm that sells kurt wholesale orders 2,500 of the 5.6 L buckets, which is two pallets. A guesthouse on the road to Tash-Rabat orders 600 clear 2.3 L buckets for tourist kurt: one pallet.
Buckets travel to the district from our plant by freight carrier. The process is the same for a herder, a household, or a guesthouse.
Tell us what product the buckets are for, how many and which sizes you need, and which village in the district they're going to. If you want your farm name on the bucket, mention it up front.
Your sales manager will pick the buckets, count the pallets, and quote a price for your order. Delivery time and shipping cost are confirmed when you place the order.
Your buckets are put together in the Bishkek FEZ, Ak-Chiy village. For IML printing, the artwork is approved first, then the run is molded.
A freight carrier takes the pallets to At-Bashy or a village in the district. The paperwork travels with the buckets.
HTI has no warehouse in At-Bashy: buckets ship from our plant in the Bishkek FEZ, Ak-Chiy village, and a freight carrier takes them to the district. Your sales manager confirms delivery time and cost when you place the order.
If your farm is already taking livestock or kurt to Bishkek, it's easy to pick up the buckets at the plant on the way back.
For the summer season, order in spring: buckets for milk and kurt should be on the farm before the herds go up to pasture, and at guesthouses before the first tourists arrive.
Kurt and butter from the district often travel on to Naryn and Bishkek. When you sell outside the district, intact packaging matters even more: a tight lid and the OPEN tamper-evident tear strip show buyers the bucket hasn't been opened.
Buckets reach villages across Naryn Region by freight carrier. The links lead to pages with packaging picks for each place.
Products from At-Bashy travel a long way to the buyer: to Naryn, to Bishkek, or home with a tourist. The right bucket version helps them arrive intact and sell.
The flat lid seats into a double rim, so kurt, butter, and sour cream reach the buyer sealed.
An intact seal under the rim shows a buyer in Naryn or Bishkek that the bucket hasn't been opened since filling.
Kurt and honey show through the wall, so tourists can pick a souvenir by eye. Every size comes in clear.
Your farm's brand goes on with a label for a first order or by IML for ongoing production: the image is fused into the wall during molding.
Directly from the HTI plant in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone (FEZ): we sell buckets in orders of one pallet and up and ship them to At-Bashy by freight carrier. Call +996 222 600 292.
Your sales manager prices each order based on size, quantity, handle, color, and printing, and works out shipping to the district at the same time.
By freight carrier from our plant. Your sales manager confirms delivery time and cost when you place the order. If several farms in one aiyl (village) are stocking up for the season, it's easier to send a combined order on one truck.
No, there's no warehouse or pickup point in the region. Buckets leave our plant in Ak-Chiy, where you can also pick them up yourself. Each order is put together for you, so small sour cream buckets and large grain buckets can arrive together.
For tourists and the bazaar, clear 2.3 L buckets; for wholesale buyers, 5.6 L with a metal bail handle. Learn more on our buckets for kurt and cheese page.
Yes, the buckets are molded from food-grade polypropylene. For retail, people use the one-liter and 800 ml sizes; for wholesale buyers, 5.6 L. See our buckets for butter page for a full breakdown.
Yes, buckets and jerry cans (5 L and 10 L) can go in one order, each model on its own pallet. For transporting kumis, jerry cans beat buckets: they have a screw cap and a handle molded in one piece with the body.
Yes, with a label or IML. The artwork is approved with your sales manager before the run is molded.
