History

POLONUS was founded by Stanislaw Zawisza in Warsaw in 1933. The company reached a monthly output of 1 million safety blades. During WWII the machines were dismantled and secured. After the war production was resumed but the factory was moved to Lodz. It reached the pre-war output as early as in 1946. In 1949 the factory was nationalized. In 1957 Zygmunt Zawisza - Stanislas' son - started a new safety blade manufacturing factory. Jan Krzysztof Zawisza - Zygmunt's son - joined the company in 1992. Nowadays, the company produces safety blades and a wide range of double-blade safety razors employing the most up-to-date technologies of platinizing and coating blades with Teflon. We produce several kinds of cosmetic and technical accessories. We are the only company in Poland producing industrial blades to particular orders.
