For People. For Spaces. For the Future.

The History of FAKRO

The inspiration behind the creation of the FAKRO brand can be traced back to moments spent in a dark attic of a house in Tymbark. As a young boy, Ryszard Florek played there with only a small glazed roof tile letting in a faint beam of light. This early experience sparked in him a sensitivity to space and a desire to create places filled with brightness. Years later, as an engineer, he returned to this intuition and transformed it into the foundation of his future business.

Lesser Poland naturally became the home of the emerging company, which gradually developed, earning recognition first locally and later on international markets. Consistency in building quality, attention to detail, and a responsible approach to design enabled FAKRO to grow into one of the most respected brands in the industry — a brand created by people who believe in the strength of Polish craftsmanship and the opportunities that arise from it.

Our mission, vision and approach to quality

At the centre of our activities is the creation of solutions that genuinely enhance living comfort and the quality of everyday life. In designing our products, we prioritise user safety, high energy efficiency and care for the environment — values embedded in the concept of a modern, responsible home. Technological development is supported by a culture of process improvement, professional customer service and continuous investment in team competencies. Long term partnerships, transparent cooperation principles and strict compliance with regulations form the foundation of the credibility that strengthens FAKRO’s reputation both in Poland and around the world.

Sustainable development

Care for the environment, people and business relationships is an integral part of FAKRO’s organisational culture. The company places strong emphasis on responsible resource management, environmentally friendly processes and the development of products that support energy efficient construction. Values rooted in ethics and transparency reinforce partner trust, while the growth of social initiatives and a focus on employee well being highlight the brand’s community oriented character. Credibility is built through consistently maintaining high quality standards and adhering to national and international requirements.

FAKRO in Numbers

Presence in more than 70 countries confirms the brand’s firmly established position on global markets. FAKRO develops its operations based on local customer needs and the standards of the international construction industry. Its worldwide reach enhances the company’s prestige and enables it to effectively respond to diverse architectural, cultural and climatic requirements.

Innovations that set the direction for growth

From the very beginning of our operations, we have viewed development as a natural part of FAKRO’s identity. The experiences that have shaped the company over decades have become the foundation of an approach built on precision, responsibility and the pursuit of new opportunities. We create products that meet the needs of contemporary homes while aligning with future directions in construction. By combining engineering expertise, advanced research and environmental responsibility, we develop solutions that are durable, functional and refined in every detail.

Quality

We prioritise comprehensive testing and precise quality control at every stage of the process to ensure that our products meet the high standards of modern construction and the expectations of users.

Development

Our team of engineers develops solutions that anticipate market needs. We consistently refine our technologies, building a portfolio of projects that advance the entire roof window category.

We cooperate with independent research institutions that verify and confirm the technical parameters of our products. These certifications strengthen the credibility of the brand and confirm the standards we uphold in our design process.

Every element of this offering is built on the experience, quality and innovation that have defined FAKRO since the beginning of our history.
