BET ON QUALITY
BET ON METAL

We take the quality of our products and the level of our services very seriously. Customer satisfaction plays a key role in our business. We believe that continuous improvement is the basis of any modern company and a guarantee of staying on the market. In 2009, we implemented a quality management system compliant with ISO 9001. The implementation resulted in the possibility of stricter control over the production process, better information flow, creating the basis for effective self-improvement, and from the customer’s point of view, more reliable protection of maintaining the required quality. In June 2016, we received the ISO 9001: 2008 certificate. We chose TÜV Rheinland as the certifying organization.

Management system
The cooperative is now located in one plant - at ul. Wybicki. The company is looking for new solutions to stay on the market. The result of this search is the purchase of a Bystronic laser, LVD and later a Mazak laser and two press brakes. The introduction of a new technology allows the Cooperative to develop a new branch. The company begins its expansion in the industry of steel and aluminum structures as well as machine components. The services provided include the manufacture of elements for ground and sea wind farms, construction elements for buses and excavators (e.g. for VOLVO, MAN, TEREX, BOMAG), components for the machine industry.
