Spólnota, a Visionary Wood Community

Enduring Heritage

Spólnota is first and foremost a story of passion and collective craftsmanship. Founded over 75 years ago in the heart of Bialka, near Maków Podhalański, the cooperative was established by a group of wood artisans united by a shared vision: to create durable, beautiful, and accessible furniture together.

What started as a small local workshop has grown, over the decades, into one of Europe's largest producers of deckchairs and wooden sleds.

Rooted in Polish artisanal tradition, Spólnota today combines a love of wood, ecology, and industrial precision, while remaining faithful to the cooperative spirit of its beginnings.

Each piece of furniture, each leżak, each sanki tells a bit of this story: that of a community bound by a passion for wood and turned toward the future.

Combining traditional craftsmanship with a passion for wood, Spólnota's artisans transform contemporary industrial challenges into sustainable and innovative opportunities.
