Students from the Academy of Technology and the Arts Visit Blachy Pruszyński Company

On October 14, students from the Academy of Technology and Arts—formerly the University of Ecology and Management—visited the headquarters of the Blachy Pruszyński Company in Sokołów. The visit provided an opportunity to learn about the company’s operations, its product lineup, and its production facilities.

The visit began with a presentation of the Blachy Pruszyński Company and the solutions it offers. Piotr O. Korycki, M.Sc. (Eng.), outlined Blachy Pruszyński Company’s operations and the products used in both residential construction and large-scale projects.

Next, Tomasz Mirecki and Sławomir Pławiński gave the students an overview of the activities of the Academy of Crafts and its on-site and Mobile Training Center. They discussed training programs that combine technical knowledge with hands-on experience and enable roofers to hone their skills in assembly of roof coverings, performing flashings, and ensuring proper roof ventilation.

Later, the students toured the production facility, where they were able to see the modern machinery and learn about the manufacturing process for construction products used on the roofs of buildings of various sizes and purposes.

They also visited one of the company’s three laboratories. Wojtek Bogdaniuk told them about the importance of quality control and the tests that products undergo at various stages of production.

Visits by students from the Academy of Technology and Arts are part of the Blachy Pruszyński Company’s long-standing collaboration with the university. Such meetings allow for the sharing of knowledge and experience, as well as introducing future professionals to the practical aspects of how a company operates and the specifics of the construction industry.

Dr. O. Kopylov, Ph.D., served as the group’s advisor.
