FAKRO is more than a company.
It’s the people, values and dreams that unite us.
It’s us – 35 years together.
The people behind FAKRO
We would like to thank everyone who has contributed to FAKRO over the years. For their trust, for their daily commitment and for the journey we have taken together. It is thanks to this that we can now look back on 35 years of shared history – with gratitude for the past and responsibility for what lies ahead.

35 years together
For 35 years, FAKRO has been creating Polish roof windows used in homes around the world. By bringing natural light into attics, we help turn them into everyday living spaces - filled with calm moments, joy, and shared memories. Our windows grow with the people who live beneath them, adapting to changing dreams and transforming houses into homes meant to be enjoyed together. In a constantly changing world, it’s our relationships with people that have always been - and continue to be - the heart of everything we do.
Starting point
In the early 1990s, Poland was undergoing a profound economic transformation. As the foundations of a free market took shape, entrepreneurship became defined by independent decision‑making and personal responsibility. It was in this moment that FAKRO was founded - a company built on patience, consistency, and long‑term thinking. From the very beginning, FAKRO believed that a strong and lasting market position is achieved over time through a clear vision, not by chasing short‑lived trends.
35 years together. Partnership is the foundation of growth.
A model that builds the long-term stability of FAKRO.
From the very beginning, FAKRO’s growth has been rooted in long‑term relationships. Close cooperation with architects, contractors, distributors, and customers has shaped both the breadth of our product range and the standards of quality we uphold. This partnership‑driven approach has enabled FAKRO to build a strong and stable market position, steadily expand its operations, and consistently realise its long‑term vision over the decades.
Light that transforms everyday life
One of the most visible outcomes of FAKRO’s innovations is the way lofts are used today. Roof windows have transformed them from purely technical spaces into bright, functional parts of the home. Natural light and fresh air improve comfort, influence daily routines, and shape how interiors are experienced. FAKRO solutions support everyday living, adapting to the evolving needs of modern families.
Trust built over years
Relationships have been at the heart of FAKRO’s development from the very beginning. Decades of close collaboration with partners have made it possible to create Polish roof windows that have been installed in homes around the world for over 35 years. The commitment and expertise of designers, distributors, and builders have enabled us to consistently respond to the real needs of users.
Over time, FAKRO solutions have been chosen for countless projects, steadily strengthening the company’s market position. This trust has been earned through stability, a commitment to quality, and thoughtful, consistent decision‑making. Today, this shared legacy is celebrated through meetings and anniversary events that highlight the value of long‑standing relationships and continue to guide FAKRO’s growth in Poland and beyond.
From Poland to global markets
The expansion of operations has been a natural stage in FAKRO’s growth. A presence in multiple markets has enabled investment in production facilities, advanced technologies, and ongoing product development, while strengthening the company’s ability to compete effectively in the global roof window industry. International growth has never been an end in itself, but rather the result of a carefully defined, long‑term strategy. Throughout this process, FAKRO has remained true to its roots - balancing local responsibility with global ambition.
Innovation as part of development
For years, FAKRO’s product development has followed a practical, purpose‑driven approach to innovation. The engineering team continuously works on solutions that enhance technical performance, durability, and everyday functionality. Each year, new technologies are introduced in response to real user needs and market demands.
Over time, the company’s offering has grown from a single roof window into a comprehensive product portfolio, encompassing solutions for pitched and flat roofs, vertical joinery, loft ladders, and complementary systems.
Another chapter in our shared history
After years of steady growth, FAKRO has reached a milestone that marks a point of reference rather than a conclusion. Decades of experience, solid foundations, and relationships built around the world allow us to look to the future with confidence and a sense of responsibility.
This moment is also an opportunity to celebrate together with all those who have contributed to the company’s success. Anniversary events create a natural space for meaningful conversations, expressions of gratitude, and the strengthening of relationships that have guided FAKRO’s development from the very beginning.
