Who are we?

We met back in the 1990s. At the time, we were all working at ZWAR, which had evolved from the K. Szpotański and Company Electrical Appliance Factory, founded by Kazimierz Szpotański in November 1918. At ZWAR, each of us worked in a different field, gaining experience along our own career paths. However, we all felt that we could do our jobs even better. Fascinated by the achievements of Kazimierz Szpotański, in 2000 we started our own company, which began from scratch.

Our story

Business is built on people and a company's strength lies in its employees

We started out as a trading company, investing in research and development.

This allowed us to achieve our main goal—creating our own line of surge arresters. Today, we are a manufacturing and trading company that is constantly expanding its production capabilities.

For us, the greatest honor is not awards, but the trust of our customers, who rely on our solutions and expertise in their daily, responsible work.

Company history

Recognized in the market

Protektel once again among the “Business Gazelles”

For the fifth time in a row, we have been honored as a winner of the prestigious “Business Gazelles 2025” ranking, once again joining the ranks of dynamically growing Polish companies in the SME sector. Being awarded the title of Business Gazelle confirms Protektel's stable growth.

Our goals

Surge protection for your project doesn't have to be a compromise

You don't have to choose between expensive components with specifications that exceed your needs and cheaper alternatives operating at the upper limits of their capabilities.  

Surge arresters custom-made for you and carefully selected Arteche components will perform exactly as you require. What are the benefits of using our power electronics devices?

  • Wide operating parameter ranges – enabling a perfect match to the specifics of your project. This ensures everything works as it should.
  • Robust construction – minimizes the risk of mechanical damage, both during transport and installation. You can be confident that the unit will function properly.
  • Resistance to high temperatures and humidity – expands the range of applications and makes the products more resistant to failure, even in the event of unforeseen changes in operating conditions.
  • Very high energy endurance – ensures a long service life. And for you, that means “peace of mind” for longer.
  • Designed for operation in dirty environments – allows you to focus on the details of installation. You don’t have to waste time meticulously cleaning up the installation site.
  • Easy installation – speeds up implementation and reduces costs. The investor in your project will certainly notice this.
  • Maintenance-free operation – saves your employees’ time. Instead, you can assign them to other tasks.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Check out the answers to the most common questions asked by our partners.

Will you visit the project site?

Yes, if necessary, we'll be happy to conduct a site visit.

Will I receive the components I ordered despite global supply chain issues?

Yes, we have our own warehouse, so we can guarantee on-time delivery.

Will the prices you offer remain valid for a year or longer?

Prices are subject to change. However, if we can reach an agreement and sign a contract in advance that covers all important aspects (including terms of trade and payment), then yes. In that case, we'll reserve the materials needed for production for this project. We can manufacture the products in advance so they'll be ready for you.

Can you ship the goods today?

Shipping is possible provided that we receive the order information in advance (a few hours before 12:00 p.m. on the given day) and if the goods are already packed. If not, we'll do our best to ensure the order is shipped as soon as possible.
