Metafrax, Gubakha, Russia.
The facility had previously been attacked by drones. Today, the attack was repeated.
The plant is of significant importance to the Russian military-industrial complex. “Metafrax” produces methanol, urotropine, urea, pentaerythritol, and other chemical products. Some of these products are used as raw materials and components in the production of explosives, ammunition, and other military-grade materials.
In particular, urotropine and pentaerythritol are used in the chemical industry related to the production of explosive materials. This is why the company is considered part of the Russian defense-industrial complex.
“Metafrax Chemicals” is also one of the largest producers of methanol in the Russian Federation and Europe. In 2024, the company sold approximately 750,000 metric tons of methanol.
Thus, the damage to the facility is significant not only for the Russian chemical industry but also for the supply of chemical raw materials that can be used in the production of explosives and military-grade products.
The consequences of the attack on Metafrax Chemicals’ production facilities are currently being assessed. #local #ukraine
