Background

The Trzebinia plant was founded as a stock association under the name "Górka." Over the decades, the plant expanded its operations, launching its third rotary kiln in 1928 and diversifying into the production of alumina and bricks by 1960. The plant endured partial destruction during the concluding battles of World War II in 1945, and recovery and reconstruction efforts extended until 1947. In 1970, Górka began producing high-alumina cements. By 1994, Górka had ventured into the manufacture of refractory concretes. The year 2000 marked a significant transition when the Italian company Mapei acquired the plant, integrating it into its global operations.
