It's one of the newest players in the European bus market, but already quite successful: Solaris has received awards for their products in Kortrijk Bus World show in Belgium. Trolleybuses are made in co-operation with the Hungarian company Ganz Electro or the Czech company Cegelec. Both companies make the electric devices for the vehicles.

Solaris has sold diesel buses to numerous cities in Europe (incl. Berlin), and trolleybuses to Rome and Naples, Italy; Landskrona, Sweden; Vilnius, Lithuania; Riga, Latvia, Tallinn, Estonia; Winterthur and La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland; Budapest and Debrecen, Hungary; Opava and Ostrava, The Czech Republic; Gdynia and Tychy, Poland.

Solaris is a family-owned business which is located in a former communist weapon factory, and was featured by BBC World in a program related to EU expansion in May 2004 as an example of a post-communist success in Poland.
