The Polish industrial group Seco/Warwick has officially concluded the acquisition of Retech, a US-based supplier of advanced metallurgy and special technology solutions. The investment strengthens the group’s position in the American market and opens new opportunities in sectors such as aerospace, defence, energy, medicine and space.
The final closing ceremony took place at Retech’s headquarters in Buffalo, New York, bringing together representatives of Seco/Warwick, PFR TFI, the Polish Embassy in Washington, the US Congress and business partners. The project was co-financed by the Foreign Expansion Fund 2 managed by PFR TFI, with Retech securing a $10 million long-term loan for technology development.
Retech has been part of the Seco/Warwick group since 2007 and specialises in advanced metallurgical processes and specialty materials. The investment is intended to expand the company’s laboratory facilities, research capabilities and production capacity, particularly in metal powder technologies.
Polish know-how meets American engineering
– This project shows how a Polish industrial group can effectively grow in the US market, invest in advanced technology and build an international scale of operations. For Seco/Warwick, this is an important step in strengthening our presence in the US, but also proof that our competences, experience and ambitions have a real global dimension. The cooperation with PFR was essential support in executing our foreign expansion strategy and further development of Retech – said Slawomir Wozniak, CEO of Seco/Warwick.
The event included presentations on the group’s growth, Retech’s technological potential and the investment’s outcomes. Participants also toured Retech’s labs and technology facilities, where the company demonstrated its latest processes and solutions.
A strategic investment for the future
– This project has strategic importance for Retech. It allows us to increase our technological capabilities, develop the laboratory base and respond even more effectively to the needs of clients in the most demanding industries. Buffalo is an important point on the US industrial map, and Retech, as part of Seco/Warwick, combines American engineering experience with the global potential of the organisation. The completion of this investment is not the end, but the beginning of another stage of growth – stressed Earl Good, Managing Director of Retech.
Piotr Dmuchowski, CEO of PFR TFI, added: – Polish industrial companies are ready for effective expansion into the most competitive markets in the world. Seco/Warwick is an example of an organisation that consistently builds a global position based on technology, specialised competences and a long-term strategy. We are delighted to have supported an investment that strengthens both the group’s position in the United States and the recognisability of Polish industry abroad.
The US remains one of Seco/Warwick’s key markets. The company was also awarded the “Investor without Borders” distinction on 22 April 2026 during the European Economic Congress in Katowice.
