Russia's vast agricultural industry has historically been one of the largest users of jute sacks and hessian fabric in the world — for grain, potatoes and other commodities. For Bangladeshi manufacturers, Russia is a long-standing and substantial market. Here is how the trade works.
Why Russia imports jute
Agricultural packaging at scale needs breathable, strong, cost-effective sacking — exactly jute's strengths. As scrutiny of plastic packaging grows, natural jute sacks are an increasingly sensible choice for storing and moving produce, a theme we explore in jute vs. synthetic fiber.
What Russia imports from Bangladesh
- Jute sacks and bags — for grain storage, potato packaging and agriculture
- Hessian fabric — industrial and packaging applications
- Jute yarn — for the textile and processing industry
- Jute rope and twine — agricultural binding and industrial use
