Ukrainian Textile Manufacturer Launched Equipment from Poland at Its Factory in Chernihiv

"Зворотна релокація": український виробник текстилю запускає на заводі в Чернігові обладнання з польської фабрики.

The trading and manufacturing group “Textile-Contact” has launched part of the equipment that was transported from the bankrupt Polish textile factory MPM Zakład Specjalistyczny to its factory in Chernihiv. This step has become a unique example of “reverse relocation” for the Ukrainian industry.

Investments and New Production Capacities

At the “TK DT-Chernihiv” factory, 25% of the equipment brought from Poland is already in operation. The remaining production capacities are expected to be launched in 2026. It is particularly noteworthy that in Chernihiv, machines for digital printing on bed linen with a width of 260 cm are operating at full capacity. Previously, such products were not manufactured in Ukraine. Overall, over the past year, the company has invested about 7 million hryvnias in launching new equipment.

Recovery and Development of Production

Investments in the acquisition of equipment from the Polish factory amounted to 1.4 million euros. After the onset of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the Chernihiv factory suffered damage: warehouses of chemicals were destroyed, and the roofs of production workshops were partially damaged. Despite these challenges, the enterprise continues to develop by implementing new production lines.

“The ‘TK DT-Chernihiv’ factory has put 25% of the equipment from the Polish factory into operation, and the rest will be launched in 2026.”

In January 2025, the enterprise began producing synthetic padding, and by April of the same year, a fabric lamination line was launched. To implement these investment projects, the factory is actively utilizing government support programs.
