78 Years of Building with Passion
The Steel Construction Plant in Grybów is more than a company – it is an institution that has been shaping Polish infrastructure for three-quarters of a century. Our history began in 1947 during the reconstruction of the country from war destruction, when the embryo of the future plant was created during the reconstruction of the railway bridge over the Biała River.
Today we are one of the leading companies in the steel construction industry in Poland. We specialize in the production and assembly of bridge structures, especially railway bridges, but our expertise also includes industrial structures, halls and other steel engineering structures.
Over the years, technologies, owners and management have changed, but one thing has remained unchanged – our unwavering quality, professionalism and attention to every detail. It is these values that make the largest construction companies in Poland choose us as their trusted partner.
