The word "tonar" in many Russians is associated with small trading kiosk semi-trailers in the markets. However, this concept now means a radically different automotive technology, which is why one cannot fail to note the actively developing enterprise LLC MZ Tonar, whose name has become a household name. Almost like a jeep, copier, diaper.
What is tonar
The name of the machine-building enterprise "Tonar" stands for "Goods to the people." After the company was closely engaged in the production of mobile outlets, so popular in the natural markets of the nineties - the beginning of the two thousandth, the name "tonar" was assigned to these mobile stalls on wheels. At the same time, it did not matter if they were manufactured by the above MOH or another enterprise.
What is a tonar yet, besides car shops for retailing various snacks? So in rare cases, they call a horse carrier, a trailer, a café-diner on wheels, and any semi-trailer.
History of the Ministry of Health
One of the significant manufacturers of cars, trailers and semi-trailers, the Tonar engineering plant is located in the village of Gubino, Orekhovo-Zuevsky District, Moscow Region (the main complex). He began his activities in 1990. Then the company specialized in the production of trailers for passenger cars. In 1992, the factory launched the production of mobile outlets, which brought him fame - everyone who lived in the nineties knows what tonar is.
However, the expansion of production did not stop there - the company began to produce galvanized sandwich panels and insulated bodies, for which such panels are the basis. In 1997, the first full-size semi-trailer from the Guba Automobile Plant was released. Then, the production of Tonar semi-trailers and dump trucks was put on the conveyor. In 2003, the company began to produce large-sized tipper semi-trailers for oversized cargo.
In 2008, Rosstat named LLC TZ “Tonar” the third in terms of production (13.6% of the total mass) in the Russian trailer market. It was second only to NefAZ and Avtopricep-KamAZ. In 2011, truck tractors were launched at the plant. In 2013, Tonar announced large-scale automation and robotization of its production. In the same year, he began making dump trucks. Among the latest news is the launch in 2016 of the production of road trains, whose maximum carrying capacity is estimated at 117 tons.
