Globgranit - how to be successful
We visited the headquarters of Globgranit in Pilawa Dolna exactly a year ago. We went there once again to see the changes which have ocurred since our last visit in one of the most rapidly developing stone companies in Poland. We are talking to Mr. Marek Sadek and Mr. Tadeusz Maliszewski who manage the company.
Swiat Kamienia: What direction is your company going in?
Globgranit: Many things have changed since our last meeting. The plant in Nowa Ruda has been launched the line for the production of modular tiles is being built there.
Magemar Polska is preparing its new headquarters
A historic vessel THMP Bembridge came to the shipyard in Szczecin. After the restoration it will be a new and original seat of Magemar Polska company as well as a special decoration of the Szczecin shipyard. The vessel will be moored in a duty-free area near the granite blocks yard. THMP Bembridge was built in Smiths Dock Company LTD, South Bank, Middlesbrough, UK in 1938. It started to be used by Trinity House company in London in September the same year. Since its early days the vessel has had the name Bembridge London on its aft. By the year 1971 the vessel was used as the first British ship (produced in Britain) which transported pilots who were responsible for entries and departures of ships to and from the shipyard. It also used to transport lighthouse-keepers to their lighthouses. The vessel has a great and rich history.

Stone industry in Lower Silesia
Today we start a series of reports which are to familiarise our readers with the general situation on Polish stone market. We start with some information from Lower Silesia. We have chosen this region not accidentally since here we can find Strzegom - Polish capital city of stone industry, and here is also WrocLaw where the largest stone fair in Poland are held. Lower Silesia has the greatest number of mines, the largest variety of deposits (Strzegom granite being the most famous), the greatest number of processing plants in Poland, stone importers, producers and sellers of stone processing machines and accessories.
Poznan, Wroclaw: Stone Fairs at the same time
We know the date of the Stone 2009 fair in Poznan. Stone 2009, since it is the official name of the fair this year, is going to be held on 4-7 November. Kamien fair in Wroclaw is going to take place at the same time. The date of Poznan fair this year was surprising for every one. The organisation of the Stone 2009 fair almost on the same days as the largest fair in Poland (Kamien in Wroclaw is going to start only one day later) will surely cause confusion. As the organisers of Poznan fair say, the date was suggested by the representatives of stone industry. They also say that in the situation of economic crisis many companies cannot afford to be at the fair twice. Besides, the organisers gave up the idea - also, as they say, on request of the exhibitors from stone industry - of combining this event with glass fair.
