PrJSC «Severodonetsk Azot Association» is an industrial giant with a great history

 

The fifties: chemical plant foundation

PrJSC «Severodonetsk Azot Association» was originally known as Lysychansk chemical plant. The future industrial giant was built on the left bank of the Severskyy Donets opposite Lysychansk. The enterprise had to manufacture its first products in 1941 but the war destroyed the plans. In the postwar period the chemical plant was constructed from the start. The enterprise was put into operation on 16 February, 1951. The same year the industrial community Lyschimstroy became Severodonetsk city. 

The sixties: enterprise development

The city forming plant produced only non concentrated nitric acid and ammonium nitrate at the beginning. But the manufacturing process developed at high tempo and soon the enterprise became the multiproduct one. In 1966 PrJSC «Severodonetsk Azot Association» team was awarded the Order of Lenin for their exceptional labor achievements. In the future the plant keeps the leading position in the industry.
