This is the second victory in a row in the district stage of the award, which allows the company to be nominated again for the next - federal stage. Despite the objective difficulties associated with the coronavirus pandemic, and thanks to our work with TMK, we expect to continue to support and develop our export directions, especially by increasing the share of high-tech products and innovative pipe solutions, "said VTZ Managing Director Sergei Chetverikov.
