Establishment of Gniotpol
In the wake of the upcoming Polish economic transformation, in 1989 the Company Seniors - Krystyna and Kazimierz Gniot open a workshop in their home garage. They design and build trailers for passenger cars - always for individual orders. It is a time of intensive work aimed at the accumulation of resources for the next years of the company's existence.
Modest beginnings in the home-based workshop
First relocation of the company
First investments
Gniotpol changes its seat. After 6 years from the establishment of the company, we move to Kurznia, where we are expanding our production facility. We design and incorporate the first solutions for delivery vans into permanent production. The factory in Kurznie is permanently becoming a very important part of the production process of Gniotpol Trailers.
Profound specialization
In 2001, the experience of our construction team allows for the development of the first specialized bodywork for mines. The lack of specialized software is not an obstacle for us. We create lightweight, easy-to-process full-scale models on which we experiment. Our efforts resulted in granting Gniotpol Trailers the first patents.

Expansion and further development
We buy the land of the non-existent ZREMB factory in Odrowąż. A gradual revitalization of these areas and the relocation of part of the production begin. We win our first serial production contract. We produce sets with a GVM of 40 tons for one of the largest carriers in the Opole region.
Export market
After many years of working with domestic clients, it is time to open the company to European markets. We invest in export activities - the IAA Fair in Hanover, the largest in the world for our industry, is the first foreign event where you can see the products of Gniotpol Trailers. We present a trailer with System 2504 pending patent protection, which is quickly becoming our top export product.

Family and company
30 years of market experience, filled with intensive activities aimed at the well-being and development of our team members, has given us a stable market position. In 2018, we completed a sensitive process of corporate succession. Since then, Agata Duliniec has been taking care of the further development of the Gniotpol company, consistent with the family's vision.
Global Development
Gniotpol Trailers vehicles manufactured at the plants in Malnia and Kurznie can be found all over the world. Export to European Union countries is our everyday life. At present, locations such as South Korea are becoming a challenge. We also care about our surroundings - we engage in the development of our local communities and we make sure that everyone who has contact with Gniotpol Trailers knows that they are part of the GT family.
