Since MARKOS (Polish GRP manufacturer) opened their fourth production hall at the end of 2013, the total order volume for nacelles (including hub covers) jumped up to 14 sets per week and employment increased to almost 400 people.
Nacelles are being produced separately from their other products such as lifeboats, rescue boats, RIBs or fishing farms.

“All the efforts of our R&D Department, Lean Manufacturing Leaders and all the employees makes MARKOS is a global player of GRP products,” said Mr Cezary Koseski (CEO).
