65 years of history
There are few companies in Poland that, like the Pietrucha Group, have been involved in the development of the Polish economy for sixty five years and can boast such a colorful history and rich experience. From a small tannery serving the needs of the local community, we have transformed into an innovative plastics processing company, ultimately joining the ranks of international leaders specializing in comprehensive services for the civil and water engineering sectors.
