RZMK Restructuring has been approved by restructuring court as a new administrator for Fabryka Obrabiarek Rafamet SA.

Fabryka Obrabiarek Rafamet SA is a Polish manufacturer of special machine tools for machining railroad wheelsets, and is one of the leading companies in this industry operating on the global market. Located in Kuźnia Raciborska (Raciborski District), the company ran into trouble that threatened insolvency as late as Q2 2025.

For this reason, at the end of December the company filed a motion to open sanitation proceedings, which was approved by the court on March 7 this year. In early May, in turn, the company requested a change of its existing management to RZMK Restructuring, which the restructuring court approved just today.

– As RZMK Restructuring, we are ready to execute immediate measures to restore the company’s financial and business situation”, declares Marcin Kubiczek, CEO of RZMK Restructuring. – Despite specter of insolvency, I see real prospects for recovery, primarily thanks to the potential of the market at which it operates, as well as the attitude of the majority owner, he adds.

At the end of April, government aid to Rafamet, among others, was announced by Prime Minister Donald Tusk. According to the declaration, funds in the amount of PLN 700 million will go, through the Industrial Development Agency, to two Racibórz companies – Rafako and Rafamet. The company from Kuźnia Raciborska would receive PLN 80 million in the form of recapitalization (in four tranches), as well as an additional PLN 16 million in the form of a loan.

Rafamet’s new administrator approaches this information with cautious optimism. – For Rafamet, such support is business to be or not to be, so this is obviously positive news for the company. How these funds will be used, however, is another matter. From our side, as RZMK Restructuring, we will do our best to use it not only to achieve solvency and satisfying creditors, but even into developing the company and strengthening its market standing”, explains Marcin Kubiczek, CEO of RZMK Restructuring.
