The Management Board of Polska Grupa Militarna S.A., headquartered in Warsaw (the Issuer), announces that on July 1, 2025, the subsidiary Zakłady Sprzętu Precyzyjnego Niewiadów sp. z o.o. made a strategic decision to restart and expand its capacity for large-scale production of anti-personnel mines. The company possesses complete technical documentation and the infrastructure necessary to quickly launch production processes.
The decision by the subsidiary’s management board was made following the passage in June 2025 of a law authorizing Poland’s withdrawal from the Ottawa Convention—a treaty banning the use, stockpiling, production, and transfer of anti-personnel mines.
ZSP Niewiadów has expertise in the processing of explosives—from pressing and formulation to assembly and final assembly. Thanks to ongoing investments, the Group’s facility has significantly increased its technological capabilities in the area of explosive prefabrication. These investment initiatives will enable the plant to reach full production capacity within the next several months.
Currently, under a contract with the Armaments Agency, the Group manufactures and supplies two key engineering munitions: Universal Cumulation Charges (UŁK), used, among other things, to create firing positions in hard ground and to destroy military equipment, as well as ZLT-50 friction-fuse detonators used to initiate explosive charges.
As part of its development strategy, ZSP Niewiadów is carrying out a project involving the construction of a modern Explosives Manufacturing Plant and the establishment of the Polish Center for Explosives Prefabrication—which specializes in processes related to the production of mines, among other things. Mass production of anti-personnel mines, using casting and pressing technologies for explosives, is scheduled to begin in 2027.
The Issuer is issuing this announcement in connection with the fact that the production of anti-personnel mines will contribute to an increase in ZSP Niewiadów’s revenue and the scale of the Niewiadów Group’s operations.
