40 MM AMMUNITION FACTORY
AN INVESTMENT WORTH 70 MILLION PLN
Proguns Group S.A., together with the Niewiadów-PGM S.A. Group and ZSP Niewiadów Sp. z o.o., are carrying out a PLN 67.4 million investment project aimed at launching a modern 40 mm ammunition factory in Niewiadów. The project will be carried out using technology provided by the Singapore-based company ST Engineering Advanced Material Engineering Pte. Ltd.
The investment includes technology transfer, the development of production capacity, and the launch of production at the subsidiary Fabryka Amunicji Pocisk S.A., in which the Niewiadów-PGM S.A. Group will ultimately become the majority shareholder. The implementation of this project represents a significant step in developing domestic capabilities in the production of modern ammunition and strengthening the potential of the Polish defense industry.
