Some, due to the nature of their disabilities, are unable to find employment on the open labor market. With them in mind, the <em>Metalowiec<\/em> Cooperative for the Disabled began its operations. In 2013, it was transformed into a limited liability company, while maintaining its status as a sheltered employment enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>As the only facility in the Namys\u0142\u00f3w district properly adapted to the needs of people with disabilities, we actively counteracted their exclusion from the labor market and enabled them to develop their careers freely.<\/p>\n<p>Due to our status as a sheltered employment enterprise, our company provided appropriately adapted buildings and facilities that meet health and safety standards and are tailored to the specific needs of people with disabilities. We also ensured access to immediate and specialized medical care, counseling, and rehabilitation services for our employees.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Medical Equipment&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]Another breakthrough stage in our company\u2019s development was the launch of production of rehabilitation equipment and rehabilitation chairs. The expansion of the product range and the scale of chair production made <em>Metalowiec<\/em> a leading player in this industry during the 1980s. To this day, our durable and functional products can still be found in many companies, hospitals, and public institutions. Although they differ from current standards, their high-quality workmanship ensures their lasting value.<\/p>\n<p>In the 1990s, our dynamic technology and design department focused on implementing new technologies and offering customers innovative products that met European standards. In addition to new types of chairs and armchairs, we expanded our range of rehabilitation equipment. From 1995 onwards, the production of medical furniture and equipment grew rapidly.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;\u201cMetalowiec\u201d Today&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]Since January 2014, we have been operating on the market as <em>Metalowiec<\/em> Sp. z o.o.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, medical and rehabilitation equipment constitutes the core of our company\u2019s offer.
