The paper mill makes colour paper, notebooks and other school supplies and toilet papers from tens of tons of Iris pallasii , gathered from uncultivated land including riversides and dikes, and various cereal crop straw.
The furniture-making cooperative is manufacturing various kinds of furniture including chests of quilts, cupboards and shoe boxes through a fixture board production line that relies on byproducts from wood processing.
