Our history

The history of PK VESTA began in 1991 after the collapse of the Soviet Union with the manufacture of patented automatic hang-up gates in the famous Russian industrial city of Tula, known throughout the world as one of the largest industrial centers for weapons and metal processing. The heritage of the city has contributed to the creation of our first team of like-minded and best specialists for working with metal. The initial idea of the project was inspired and implemented by two Tula families of the Izvekovs and Kulakovs, consisting of engineers, designers and financial specialists

Now PK VESTA specializes in the design and manufacture of energy-saving custom prefabricated buildings from steel lightweight steel structures in its own factory for Russian and international customers. We are active members of the Steel Development Association in Russia. In the construction market of Eurasia, the company is the only one that serves all customers completely through the Internet on the basis of the unique patented cloud platform WebSteel, which allows anyone to calculate the instantaneous price of individual steel buildings online with the subsequent ordering of the building at the factory for major markets in Eurasia, the Middle East and Africa.

Introduced in Eurasia for the first time by PK VESTA, the latest innovative concept «Smart Techno Design» radically distinguishes us from other factories in other countries and changes the way how customers will be served in the construction industry in the near future. This approach to customer service is revolutionary. Our efforts are aimed at making the company a recognized leader in international construction markets in the design and manufacture of customized energy-efficient steel buildings “on order” via the Internet based on unique online cloud services.

Traditions

We continue the work of our ancestors from the 15th century!

In Tula, already in the 15th century, iron began to be smelted from local ore, which led to the active development of blacksmithing and weapons crafts. Famous dynasties lived in the city: Demidovs, Krasilnikovs, Orekhovs, Luginins, Batashevs and Mosolovs. Some of the specialists at the modern PK VESTA factory are representatives of the 2nd and 3rd generation since 1970, working in the market of prefabricated buildings made of lightweight metal structures. The average static experience of a specialist at the plant is more than 10 years. The accumulated experience in working with metal is carefully passed from generation to generation, introducing the latest industrial and information technologies in the 21st century.
