OUR STORY

Our team’s story.
Work we want to continue.

How polymer expertise became practical support for Ukraine’s military, why wheels became our main focus, and what losing the workshop changed.

01 SINCE 2022

How PLAN B began

In 2022, the team began applying its experience with polymers to military needs. That became PLAN B, a project focused on practical support through technology.

02 PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE

From polymer coatings to wheels

We applied polymer coatings to armor components and vehicles, worked on boats and filled tires. Wheels gradually became our main focus.

The day work at the workshop stopped

Vyshneve, Kyiv region

The production site was destroyed.

The workshop was destroyed during a large-scale Russian attack and the subsequent detonation of an ammunition depot in the city. Equipment, tools and material stocks were lost in the fire.

03 HOW WE WORKED

Why we cannot
rebuild on our own.

The price of our work included materials and running costs: wages, electricity, equipment upkeep and logistics. However, we did not build up reserves sufficient to rebuild the entire site from scratch.

04 THE TEAM

The team is ready to return

Around ten team members are ready to continue. Their experience remains, and requests for tire filling are still coming in.

Spray Service continues its construction work, but PLAN B’s wheel work needs a new production site. See our current status and rebuilding plan for the next steps.
