History

Belma’s business began in 1868 as a locksmith company. The company specialized in devices for the railroad mining and defense industries, expanding to include motor vehicles and other industrial services. Its primary responsibility today is production and design [1] of land mines (according to Ottawa Treaty - only anti-tank mines[2][3] can be produced) for the Polish Army. BELMA is the only manufacturer of anti-tank mines in Poland.

Since 2010, BELMA has been a member of Division Ammunition of BUMAR GROUP.
