On 08.06.2019, CMPW PAN employees attended in a regular charity picnic organized by Marco, a Gliwice-based company. The goal of the picnic was to raise funds for the "Tęcza" Occupational Therapy Workshops organized by the Różyczka Foundation in Gliwice.
The Center belongs to category A of scientific facilities in Poland. It was established on January 1, 2007 as a result of a merger of the Center of Polymer Chemistry of PAN in Zabrze and the Institute of Carbochemistry of PAN in Gliwice – two centers of the Polish Academy of Sciences which, for many years, had been conducting systematic work on the production and properties of macromolecular polymer and carbon materials.
