CSR
Responsible action for the environment, people and sport.
Since the beginning of its activity, metal furniture manufacturer Malow has been involved in various social initiatives. We regard charitable activities as an important manifestation of corporate social responsibility. Apart from producing metal furniture, MALOW Sp. z o. o. remains an open and friendly company. In carrying out our social mission, we financially support numerous local initiatives, culture and science, as well as organisations helping children. We also support the efforts of people and organisations tackling ambitious challenges.

We have signed a cooperation agreement with the Suwałki City Hall for the development of vocational education. Its aim is to create strong, industry-oriented vocational training centres to meet the needs of the local labour market. For many years, we have sponsored prizes in the inter-school competition ‘Show your skills, profession is the key to success’ organised by the Suwałki Technical School Complex.
