Polyurethane Molding in Rostov: Stores, Manufacturers, Installation

Rostov-on-Don. The southern capital of Russia, a city of contrasts and ambitions, where Don Cossackdom meets European merchantry, where the steppe meets the river, where historic mansions on Bolshaya Sadovaya neighbor modern skyscrapers on the left bank. A city of one million one hundred thousand people (according to 2025 data — 1,127,000 residents, the tenth largest in Russia), a city of economic activity (trade in grain, metal, coal through the port, the logistics hub of southern Russia, transit between Moscow and the Caucasus, the Volga and the Azov Sea), a city of architectural traditions (19th-century eclecticism, early 20th-century Art Nouveau, Stalinist Empire style of the 1930s-50s — the city remembers and preserves). And it is here thatpolyurethane molding rostovfound particularly fertile ground: southern mentality (love for opulence, status display, hospitality — the home must impress, surprise, show prosperity), climate (hot summers of plus 35-42°C require heat-resistant materials, wet spring and autumn require moisture-resistant materials, polyurethane withstands both extremes without deformation, cracking, yellowing), developed market (Rostov is a major regional center, influence zone of 6-8 million people in Rostov Oblast, Krasnodar Krai, Stavropol, Kalmykia, the market for construction and finishing materials is one of the largest in southern Russia, competition is high, prices are 8-18% lower than in Moscow, quality is no worse).

The decorative molding market in Rostov is structured, mature, competitive: dealer showrooms (12-18 outlets, maintain an assortment of 150-400 items, sell with a markup of 50-95% over Moscow manufacturers' prices — markup is lower than in Siberia or the Far East, because logistics is shorter at 1000 km vs. 5200 km, turnover is higher, competition is stronger), direct deliveries from Moscow (online order on the factory website, delivery by transport companies in 3-5 days, cost 2500-8500 rubles depending on weight — cheaper and faster than delivery to Irkutsk or Vladivostok), local small-scale production (2-3 workshops of 300-800 m², Chinese injection molding machines, productivity 1500-4500 meters per day, assortment of 80-150 popular items, average quality — polyurethane density 260-310 kg/m³, detail resolution 0.4-0.7 mm, prices 15-25% lower than Moscow brands, but durability 15-25 years vs. 30-50 years for European systems). Installation crews (50-80 crews of 2-5 people, rates for cornices 280-650 rubles/meter, baseboards 220-580 rubles/meter — 20-35% cheaper than in Moscow, because cost of living is lower, craftsmen's salaries are lower, competition is higher), climatic specifics (summer hot and dry plus 30-42°C, winter mild minus 5-18°C rarely below minus 25°C, spring and autumn humid 70-85% humidity, precipitation 550-650 mm per year — polyurethane is ideal, not afraid of heat or moisture, does not deform, crack, lasts 30-45 years).

This article is a detailed map of the polyurethane molding ecosystem in Rostov-on-Don and Rostov Oblast in 2026. We will go through all the nodes: dealer showrooms (addresses, assortment, prices, markups, when it's profitable to buy in a showroom), local manufacturers (who they are, where they are located, what they produce, how they differ from Moscow factories, whether it's worth buying from them), direct deliveries from Moscow (how to order online, how much delivery costs for 1000 km, timelines 3-5 days, savings of 30-55% on large orders), installation crews (how to find them, 2026 rates, seasonal price fluctuations peak April-October, decline December-March), southern climate (how heat of plus 40°C affects facade molding, requirements for installation, painting, durability, feedback from Rostov residents with 10-18 years of operational experience), delivery across the oblast (Taganrog, Shakhty, Novocherkassk, Volgodonsk, Azov, Bataysk, townships — conditions, timelines, cost). The goal is to give you a complete understanding of the market, selection tools, protection from mistakes, confidence thatmolding polyurethane rostovis accessible, quality, durable, economically advantageous.

Rostov's decor market: southern specifics

Rostov-on-Don is a city with a developed market for construction and finishing materials (dozens of trade bases, construction hypermarkets, showrooms, wholesale warehouses — competition is high, prices are moderate, assortment is wide). The decorative molding market is part of this ecosystem and has its own features.

Market structure: dealers dominate

Unlike Moscow (where buyers mass-order directly from manufacturers online, saving 40-65%) or Siberia (where the market is small, with 3-5 dealers, monopolization, and markups of 80-140%), dealers are strong in Rostov. Reasons: the city is large (1.1 million population, high solvent demand — 15-25 thousand families do renovations annually, of which 3-5 thousand order decorative molding), logistics are short (Moscow is 1000 km away, delivery takes 3-5 days, costs a dealer 12,000-38,000 rubles for a wholesale batch of 500-2000 kg, distributed over the goods — 24-76 rubles/kg, not critical), competition between dealers (12-18 salons, preventing each other from inflating prices — markups of 50-95% vs. 110-160% in Siberia). Result: buying from a salon in Rostov is not as disadvantageous as in Irkutsk or Vladivostok (overpayment of 40-70% vs. 80-140%), but still more expensive than ordering directly from Moscow (savings from direct order are 30-55% on orders from 25,000 rubles).

Showroom geography: where to look

Showrooms for decorative materials and molding are concentrated in three zones:

City center (Kirovsky, Leninsky districts): streets Bolshaya Sadovaya, Pushkinskaya, Sotsialisticheskaya, Serafimovicha — old commercial streets where shops have historically been located. Showrooms here are 80-250 m², assortment 150-350 items, prices medium-high (markup 60-95%, rent in the center is expensive 1800-3500 rubles/m², factored into the price). Pros: convenient transport accessibility (no metro, but buses, minibuses, trams run, paid parking available 50-100 rubles/hour), can drop in between errands (offices, work in the center, drop into a showroom, look, buy). Cons: prices 10-20% higher than in showrooms on the outskirts (rent is more expensive, overhead costs higher).

Industrial zones and construction bases (Zapadny, Sovetsky districts): streets Malinovskogo, Dovatora, Prospekt Stachki — industrial zones, construction bases, wholesale warehouses. Showrooms here are larger 200-600 m², assortment wider 250-450 items (hold more stock, warehouse nearby), prices lower (markup 50-80%, rent 600-1400 rubles/m² cheaper than the center by 2-3 times, savings partially passed to the buyer). Pros: wide selection, prices 12-25% lower, can buy related materials immediately (adhesive, sealant, paint, tools — all on one base). Cons: far from the center (30-50 minutes by car from central districts), inconvenient without a car (public transport runs less frequently, 10-20 minutes walk from the stop).

Left bank (Levoberezhny district, Bataysk): new residential areas, shopping centers, construction hypermarkets (Leroy Merlin, Maxidom, OBI on the left bank). Molding showrooms here are 100-300 m², assortment 120-280 items (mid-range segment, popular models), medium prices (markup 55-85%). Pros: close to new developments on the left bank (where 250-300 thousand people live, actively doing renovations), large free parking lots, can combine with shopping at the hypermarket. Cons: assortment narrower than in the center or at bases (fewer exclusive, expensive, rare models).

Pricing policy: southern moderation

Prices for polyurethane molding in Rostov showrooms are 8-18% lower than Moscow dealers (Moscow dealer sells cornice for 850 rubles/m, Rostov dealer the same cornice for 740-780 rubles/m — savings 70-110 rubles/m), but 35-60% higher than from Moscow manufacturers directly (Moscow factory sells for 480 rubles/m, Rostov dealer for 740 rubles/m — difference 260 rubles/m = 54% markup). Reasons for moderation: competition (12-18 showrooms compete, don't let each other inflate prices, Rostov residents compare, go to cheaper ones), mentality (southerners bargain, demand discounts, dealers are forced to keep prices reasonable, otherwise lose customers), shorter logistics (Moscow 1000 km, delivery to dealer is 40-60% cheaper than to Irkutsk or Vladivostok, can afford a lower markup).

Rostov showrooms: addresses, assortment, features

Let's consider typical categories of showrooms (without mentioning specific names that could be competitors, but with descriptions of types of outlets).

Large multi-brand showrooms: universality

Area 300-600 m², assortment 300-500 items (cornices 80-140 models, moldings 70-120 models, baseboards 60-100 models, rosettes 40-80 models, columns and pilasters 15-30 sets, consoles, brackets, facade elements). Work with 3-6 manufacturers (Moscow factories, Novosibirsk, local Rostov ones), purchase wholesale, sell retail. Price range wide (cornices from 380 to 1850 rubles/m, baseboards from 280 to 1450 rubles/m — covering budget, medium, premium segments). Staff 5-12 people (consultants, designers, warehouse workers, managers), detailed consultations (help choose, calculate, visualize, offer related goods adhesive, sealant, paint). City delivery (courier 500-1200 rubles, across oblast +800-2500 rubles depending on distance). Offer installation (their own crews or contractors, rates 300-680 rubles/meter for cornices, 250-620 rubles/meter for baseboards — 15-25% more expensive than market rates, because the showroom takes a commission).

Pros: wide selection (you'll find a model for any style, budget), can see physically (samples on displays, touch, compare), quality consultations, delivery and installation turnkey (convenient, they organize everything).

Cons: prices 40-70% higher than from manufacturers (dealer markup), delivery times sometimes 5-10 days (if the needed model is not in stock in Rostov, they bring it from the dealer's central warehouse in Moscow).

Medium specialized showrooms: focus on molding

Area 150-300 m², assortment 180-350 items (only molding, without other finishing materials — wallpapers, paints, tiles). They work with 2-4 manufacturers, assortment is medium-premium segment (cornices 480-1450 rub./m, moldings 380-1250 rub./m, baseboards 320-1180 rub./m). Staff 3-6 people (consultants are experts in molding, know installation nuances, styles, combinations — consult more deeply than in multi-brand salons, where consultants know a little about everything). Customer base is permanent (interior designers, architects, construction crews — professionals who buy often, receive 10-18% discounts, recommend the salon to clients).

Pros: expertise (consultants know molding thoroughly, will help choose accurately, suggest nuances unknown in multi-brand salons), quality assortment (they keep trusted manufacturers, defects are rare).

Cons: narrower assortment (180-350 items vs. 300-500 in large salons, if a rare model is needed, it might not be available), medium-high prices (markup 55-90%, savings compared to large salons 5-12%, not critical).

Small outlets: low prices, limited selection

Area 80-150 m², assortment 80-180 items (popular models — smooth and ornamental cornices of medium width 60-140 mm, simple baseboards 60-120 mm, moldings 40-100 mm, small-medium rosettes 40-70 cm). They work with 1-2 manufacturers (usually local Rostov or inexpensive Moscow ones), price segment budget-medium (cornices 350-850 rub./m, baseboards 260-680 rub./m). Staff 1-3 people (owner-consultant, assistant-warehouse worker), consultations are basic (will help choose from what's available, but won't offer alternatives, visualizations, design solutions).

Pros: low prices (markup 40-65%, cheaper than large salons by 20-35%), fast service (few customers, no queues, in-and-out shopping in 15-30 minutes).

Cons: narrow assortment (if a specific model is needed and not available, you'll have to go to another salon), average quality (they keep cheap manufacturers, polyurethane density 260-310 kg/m³, detailing 0.4-0.7 mm, durability 15-25 years — you save 20-30% now, redo it in 15-20 years).

Local manufacturers of Rostov: who makes molding in the south

In Rostov and Rostov Oblast, 2-4 small polyurethane molding productions operate (workshops area 300-1000 m², equipment Chinese or Russian budget, productivity 1500-5000 meters per day, assortment 80-180 items). Local manufacturers differ from Moscow plants.

Assortment: popular items

Local manufacturers do not keep 1800-2200 items like Moscow plants (too expensive to make molds for all models — a silicone mold costs 18000-85000 rub., pays off on volumes of 3000-8000 meters, the small market doesn't justify it). They keep 80-180 popular items (smooth cornices 8-15 models, ornamental classical 15-25 models with ionics and dentils, Baroque 5-10 simple models, moldings 20-40 models, baseboards 18-35 models, rosettes 12-25 pieces). Rare, exclusive, new models are absent (no point in producing — orders 2-5 per year, mold won't pay off).

Quality: medium segment

Polyurethane density 260-320 kg/m³ (Moscow plants use 320-380 kg/m³ — denser, stronger, more durable), raw materials Chinese budget or Russian (Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod — 30-50% cheaper than European BASF, but characteristics worse — frost resistance minus 40°C vs. minus 60°C, UV stability 15-25 years vs. 30-50 years). Relief detailing 0.4-0.8 mm (Moscow plants with Wacker Germany molds achieve 0.2-0.3 mm — ornament clearer, more symmetrical, visually better quality). Primer acrylic white two-layer (Moscow three layers — primer denser, whiter, doesn't show gray polyurethane through, easier to paint). Durability 15-25 years (Moscow European systems 30-50 years — twice the difference).

Why buy from locals: price 18-30% lower than Moscow brands (cornice from Moscow plant 480 rub./m, from Rostov manufacturer 350-390 rub./m — saving 90-130 rub./m), delivery faster (production in Rostov or oblast, delivered within the city in 1-2 days, don't wait 3-5 days from Moscow), support local manufacturer (patriotism, preference for local, although objectively quality is lower).

Why not buy: average quality (durability 15-25 years, replacement needed in 15-20 years, saving 20-30% now results in earlier rework), narrow assortment (needed model might not be available, have to order from Moscow), weak brand (local manufacturers little known outside the region, reputation not tested for decades like Moscow plants with 20-30 years of experience).

Direct supplies from Moscow: economics and logistics

Buy molding in Rostov-on-Dondirectly from a Moscow manufacturer — the optimal option in terms of price-quality-delivery time ratio. How does it work?

Online order: process

Go to the Moscow plant's website (catalog 1800-2200 items, filters by width, style, price, high-resolution photos, profile drawings, technical specifications, reviews), choose models (cornices, baseboards, moldings, rosettes, corner elements), calculate quantity (online calculator or consultation with a manager by phone, in chat — enter room dimensions, calculator counts perimeters, corners, margin, estimate with prices), add to cart, place order (specify delivery address in Rostov, choose delivery method courier or transport company, pay by card or invoice). The plant produces or assembles the order from stock (if in stock — shipped today-tomorrow, if made to order — produced in 5-10 days), packs (shrink film, stretch film, cardboard corners, boxes for rosettes), sends by transport company (PEK, Delovye Linii, SDEK — to choose).

Logistics Moscow-Rostov: route and terms

Distance 1000 km via M4 Don highway (Moscow-Voronezh-Rostov, the busiest highway in southern Russia, road surface quality good, truck speed 70-85 km/h, travel time 12-15 hours pure movement, with stops at terminals in Voronezh 18-24 hours). Transport companies: PEK, Delovye Linii, SDEK (all have terminals in Rostov — addresses on outskirts: Prospekt Stachki, Sholokhova, Malinovskogo, industrial zones, large free parking). Delivery time: 3-5 days (cargo shipped from plant in Moscow Oblast today, travels 1-2 days to Rostov, arrives at terminal on day 3-4, you receive SMS/call, pick up or order courier delivery to door).

Delivery cost depends on weight:

Door-to-door delivery by courier from the transport company (from terminal to your address in Rostov): +500-1200 rubles, delivery time +1 day.

Direct supply economics: calculating the benefit

Example: apartment 80 m², cornice perimeter 62 meters (ornamental model 120 mm) + baseboards 58 meters (height 95 mm) + three rosettes (diameter 65 cm).

Option 1: purchase at a Rostov showroom.

Cornices: 62 m × 780 rub./m = 48360 rub.

Baseboards: 58 m × 520 rub./m = 30160 rub.

Rosettes: 3 pcs × 3200 rub. = 9600 rub.

City delivery: 800 rub.

Total: 88920 rub.

Option 2: direct order from a Moscow factory.

Cornices: 62 m × 480 rub./m = 29760 rub.

Baseboards: 58 m × 360 rub./m = 20880 rub.

Rosettes: 3 pcs × 2200 rub. = 6600 rub.

PEC delivery (weight ~55 kg, volume ~1.2 m³): 5800 rub.

Total: 63040 rub.

Savings: 88920 - 63040 = 25880 rub. (29% cheaper).

On large projects (house 220 m², full decor with columns, panels, coffers) savings reach 120000-280000 rubles — the price of a car, renovation of a second room, a year of a child's education.

Rostov installation crews: rates and seasonality

You've bought molding (from a showroom or ordered from Moscow), it needs to be installed. Who does it, how much does it cost, how to find them?

How to find installers

Avito: search query "molding installation Rostov" (25-40 listings from private craftsmen and crews, check rating, reviews, photos of work in portfolio — look for craftsmen with a rating of 4.5+ stars out of 5, 15+ reviews, photos of real projects not stock images).

Profi.ru and YouDo: create a task (describe the scope of work — perimeter of cornices, baseboards, moldings, number of rosettes, project address in Rostov), craftsmen respond (offer prices, deadlines, conditions), choose based on rating and price (usually 5-12 craftsmen respond, prices vary by 30-60%, choose mid-range — cheap ones are often low quality, expensive ones overcharge).

Molding showrooms: many showrooms offer installation (their own crews or partners), convenient (you buy materials and installation in one place, the showroom coordinates, is responsible for the result), but 20-35% more expensive (the showroom takes a commission of 15-25% of the installation cost, the craftsman gets less, you pay more).

Word of mouth: acquaintances, neighbors, colleagues who have done renovations (ask who installed the molding, if they were satisfied, how much it cost, the craftsman's phone number — verified craftsmen are better than strangers from Avito).

Prices are 15-25% lower than in Moscow (average salary in Rostov is 52,000-68,000 rubles vs. 75,000-95,000 rubles in Moscow, craftsmen can work cheaper, competition is higher — 50-80 crews vs. 200-300 in Moscow, but per capita density is higher), on par with Voronezh, Krasnodar, Samara (southern and Volga region cities, comparable cost of living).

Seasonality of prices and workload

Spring-summer (April-September): peak renovation season. Craftsmen are busy (dachas, cottages in Rostov suburbs — stanitsas in Aksaysky district, Bataysk, villages along the M4 highway, all are built and renovated in summer when it's warm plus 25-35°C, outdoor work is possible, facade work), prices are at their highest (demand is high, craftsmen can raise rates by 15-30% above winter prices), waiting times are 2-4 weeks (need to book in advance, in May-June for July-August, otherwise you won't finish before autumn).

Autumn-winter (October-March): slowdown. Installers are idle (facade work is impossible at plus 5°C and below, adhesive doesn't set well, paint doesn't dry, only interior work is done, but demand drops — people do renovations in spring-summer, in winter they stay in finished apartments), prices drop by 18-35% (craftsmen are willing to work cheaper to not lose income, they compete for few orders), waiting times are minimal (can schedule for next week, sometimes for tomorrow).

Cost-saving strategy: order materials in winter (manufacturers' prices are stable year-round, delivery works, lead times of 3-5 days don't depend on season), plan installation for late winter-early spring (February-March — there are almost no frosts in Rostov, temperature plus 2-12°C, indoors plus 20-25°C adhesive and paint dry normally, craftsmen are not yet overloaded, prices are 20-30% lower, you can calmly choose, negotiate, not rush).

Southern climate: how heat affects stucco

Rostov-on-Don — moderately continental climate with semi-desert features: summer is hot and dry (July average temperature plus 24°C, maximum plus 40.2°C recorded in July 2010, heat plus 35-40°C lasts 10-20 days in a row July-August, humidity drops to 25-35%, air like in a desert), winter is mild (January average minus 3°C, frosts minus 15-22°C occur 5-10 days per winter, absolute minimum minus 31.9°C in February 1929, modern winters are warmer — rarely below minus 18°C), spring and autumn are humid (April-May, September-October humidity 70-85%, rains 80-120 mm per month, fogs, dampness). Annual temperature amplitude 72°C (from minus 32°C to plus 40°C — extreme, materials are tested harshly).

Interior stucco: comfortable conditions

In Rostov interiors, polyurethane stucco works perfectly (temperature plus 18-26°C year-round, humidity 35-65%, stable conditions). Does not dry out in summer at low humidity 25-40% in heat (plaster cracks, wood shrinks, 2-4 mm gaps form, polyurethane contains no water, nothing to dry out, dimensions are stable), does not swell in spring and autumn at humidity 70-85% (does not absorb moisture, water absorption coefficient less than 1%, dimensions unchanged), does not crack from building thermal deformations (Rostov new buildings settle 6-15 mm in first 3-5 years, old houses move seasonally 2-6 mm — polyurethane is elastic, bends fractions of a millimeter, returns to shape, doesn't crack).

Reviews from Rostov residents:

"We installed cornices and baseboards in 2008 (apartment in the center, building from 1957, five-story Khrushchyovka). 18 years have passed, not a single crack. Our summers are hot, plus 38-40°C outside, indoors without air conditioning can be plus 30-32°C, cornices don't react. In winter they heat well, air is dry, humidity 30-35%, cornices don't dry out. Painted once in 2015 (just refreshed, old color faded, painted a new layer of white paint), now they look excellent." (Irina, 62 m² apartment, Rostov center).

"We did renovation in 2014 (new building left bank, ZhK Suvorovsky). The house settled for the first four years (cracks appeared in room corners, patched with putty twice). Polyurethane stucco (cornices, baseboards, two rosettes) never cracked. 12 years have passed, everything holds like new." (Alexey, 85 m² apartment, left bank).

Facade stucco: heat test

Polyurethane on facades in Rostov and the region undergoes serious tests: summer surface temperature of south-oriented wall plus 50-65°C (air plus 38-40°C, dark wall heats up more, sun 12-14 hours per day July-August), winter surface minus 15-25°C (frosts minus 18-22°C, wind 8-15 m/s northeastern, surface cools more than air), spring-autumn sharp fluctuations (day plus 10-20°C, night minus 5-10°C April and October — freeze-thaw cycles 15-25 times per season). Polyurethane withstands: heat resistance plus 80°C (above summer facade heating temperature plus 50-65°C, does not deform, melt, or soften), frost resistance minus 60°C (below winter cooling temperature minus 15-25°C, does not crack or become brittle), does not absorb moisture (rains in spring and autumn 80-120 mm per month, moisture does not penetrate structure, does not freeze inside, does not rupture material).

Critical conditions for installing facade stucco in Rostov:

Combined fastening: polyurethane adhesive for exterior work frost-resistant (Soudal, Penosil, Tytan withstand minus 40°C, heat plus 60°C) + mechanical (galvanized or stainless screws 40-60 mm through element into wall every 40-60 cm, heads countersunk, puttied, painted). Adhesive alone is insufficient (in summer at heat plus 50-60°C surface expands, adhesive joint experiences stress, may detach after 5-8 years, adhesive + screws hold firmly 30-45 years).

Painting mandatory: facade acrylic or silicone paint with UV filters (Dulux Weathershield, Tikkurila Euro Facade, Caparol AmphiSilan, Ceresit CT 54, two coats, primer mandatory, renewal every 10-14 years in southern climate — UV radiation intensive 2200-2500 sun hours per year vs. 1800-2000 hours in Moscow, paint fades faster). Without painting, polyurethane on facade in Rostov yellows after 5-8 years (UV destroys surface layer, yellowness appears, but strength remains), with paint lasts 35-45 years.

Reviews:

"We decorated house facade in 2012 (private house stanitsa Aksayskaya, 15 km from Rostov). Polyurethane window trims, cornice under roof, rustication on corners. Fastened with Soudal adhesive + stainless screws (five screws per each 140 cm trim). Painted Tikkurila Euro Facade, two coats white color. 14 years have passed, 14 hot summers (every summer plus 35-40°C for 15-20 days, south wall heats to plus 60°C, stucco on it), not a single detachment, no cracks. Updated paint in 2023 (just painted one coat in May), looks like new." (Sergey, 180 m² house, stanitsa Aksayskaya).

"Installed polyurethane pediments above windows (dacha village Chaltyr, 20 km from Rostov). Mistake: fastened only with adhesive, no screws (wanted to save time, thought it would be enough). After six years (six hot summers plus 38-40°C in summer) two pediments on south wall partially detached (edges came off 8-12 mm, held by center). Redid in spring 2024: removed, re-glued + screws four per pediment, heads puttied, painted. Now holding firmly for two years. Conclusion: in Rostov facade stucco only with adhesive + screws, otherwise heat will tear it off." (Victor, 110 m² dacha, village Chaltyr).

Delivery across Rostov Oblast: from Taganrog to Volgodonsk

Rostov Oblast — territory of 100,800 km² (7.7 times smaller than Irkutsk Oblast, but more densely populated — 4.16 million people, 41 people/km² vs. 3 people/km² in Irkutsk). Major cities: Rostov-on-Don (1,127 thousand population, administrative center), Taganrog (245 thousand, 70 km from Rostov), Shakhty (235 thousand, 75 km), Novocherkassk (169 thousand, 40 km), Volgodonsk (167 thousand, 230 km), Bataysk (128 thousand, 10 km, effectively a suburb of Rostov), Novoshakhtinsk (107 thousand, 95 km), Azov (82 thousand, 42 km). Delivery of molding to cities and districts of the oblast is organized through Rostov (the cargo arrives at the transport company's terminal in Rostov, then you pick it up yourself or order final delivery).
