On June 13th, 2012 the District Court for Poznan - Stare Miasto, XI Commercial Division for Bankruptcy and Reorganization issued a decision declaring bankruptcy with the possibility to make an arrangement of the Company.

In 1999–2001, the Company implemented BOT projects in Trzemeszno, Złotów and Tomaszów Bolesławiecki – we were the first in Poland to design and construct LNG cryogenic units, used in connecting towns and communities to gas and heat -supply systems, as well as for individual and industrial customers.

The success of those projects led to the spinning off a part of the Company’s business and establishing in 2000 KRI, a company which launched its operations in 2001.
