Milestones of the company

1992

Our company was founded in 1992, when the new technologies in the glass industry were still in their fledgling stages. We produced Insulated Glass Units, aluminium doors, windows and facades systems.

Our beginnings were really modest because we started in a tiny unit. But we knew from the beginning that we wanted to create a new technological standard to offer designers, architects and investors new opportunities.

2005

It was time to specialise and we decided to go into the field of fire-resistant glass. We developed a pioneering method for manufacturing fire-resistant glass.

More than 15 years have passed since then. Today we are a renowned fire-resistant glass producer with our own technology and hydrogel recipe.

2010

During 2010 and 2014, our factory was thoroughly modernised with the machinery and the company's own testing laboratory being expanded and upgraded.

Thanks to this upgrade we have the assurance that POLFLAM fire-resistant glass will withstand any independent testing it is subjected to.

2014

Our collaboration with Syntaxis Capital, an investment fund, was a strong impetus for development. In August 2014, the fund became our shareholder. Acquiring a reputtable financial partner like Syntaxis Capital is a hallmark of our business reliability.

This strengthened our position in the EU market. Further markets are being exploited.

2015

In January 2015, Glass-Team Sp. z o.o. was renamed to POLFLAM Sp. z o.o.

2019

A new stage in the history of the company has just begun. The new owner is the investment fund Baltisse.

Baltisse has acquired part of the shares from the POLFLAM founders and the investment fund Syntaxis Capital.

2022

Opening of our new state-of-the-art factory in Tarczyn.

Our new production facility allows us to increase production capacity and to better serve the needs of our customers across Europe and the Middle East.

Karol Stefan Wyszyński University in Warsaw – one of the first projects where POLFLAM fire-resistant glass was installed.
