The Expansion Of The Only Computer Memory Factory in Europe is Underway

The expansion of the only computer memory factory in Europe is underway. The factory in question produces Goodram branded memory and is located in Łaziska Górne. In the south of Poland, there is a unique technological company that stands out in Europe. The said company is Wilk Elektronik SA, which is the manufacturer of the well-known in Europe Goodram computer memory brand as well as the IRDM gaming line. Nine months after the symbolic groundbreaking, the scale of this private investment is already visible. The impressive 14-meter high structure of the building is not accidental. The extended part of the company is going to have a high storage warehouse and a new production hall. Thus, the company surface will be expanded from the current 3000 m² by 1140 m² in the warehousing and logistics section and 1200 m² in the production area.
Not counting the equipment and machinery in the new hall, the investment in the expansion of the company will cost about 5 million dollars. This is the largest investment for us since launching the production plant in 2003, says Wiesław Wilk, CEO of Wilk Elektronik SA.

New jobs will be the consequence of the expansion of the plant. The company announces recruitment to all organizational departments. Candidates will find a number of attractive job offers related to production, and due to the fact that Wilk Elektronik SA operates internationally, the company is open to people with knowledge of foreign languages who wish to work in sales, marketing or purchasing.

The construction work on the main structure was completed in December. The building was covered with a roof, therefore, it was possible to carry out the operation connected with reconstruction of the main distribution board, which supplies the whole production plant with electricity. This operation was a sort of a trial before the relocation of the warehouse and starting production in the expanded part of the company, which await the investor in the next stages of the expansion. These operations are planned for the second half of the year and preparations for them are already underway. At present, installation works are being carried out. The stage of interior finishing and preparation of office space will be the next step. The completion of works connected with the expansion is planned for the second half of 2022.

Selayatbh calling this a factory's kind of a stretch, this is just an assembly plant where (final) assembly happens (and shit like that's called made in eu/poland. what a scam.), dies are still all diffused in asia and imported so
To be fair, GoodRAM doesn't claim their products are made in Poland, just assembled here. All of their products have that in bold letters front and center on their packaging.

good to know.
tbf i wasnt aware of this specific case (i know of goodram, but have never bought their products before) but generally there's like, hp and fuji (that i know of) who assemble their oem systems in the eu and call them made in eu, which is simply not true (everything's made in china, taiwan and/or korea - but assembled in the eu)

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any requirements to label things overly specific. Assembled in seems to be good enough if something is made from parts from various places.

What do you think Skylab had those wings on it for?


I've heard of the GoodRam name before but never bought anything of it before.
With that I can't say if it's good or bad stuff.
I'll admit I was wary of Adata when they first came out also because I didn't know the name but I would buy it now. They have established themselves as a real name to consider, not above others like G. Skill for example but good enough I'd buy it if there is nothing I want available under the brand names I do know well.

As for generic, everyday sticks I'd bet these are good at least.

EU ≠ Europe. For Europe to thrive, EU in its current form must fall.
