The plant has a production capacity of 700,000 cubic meters per year.
AdePlast operates a polystyrene plant in Ploiesti (S) and will open a new unit in Roman (E) in June, Barbut said Friday.
The three plants’ production capacity will be 2.25 million cubic meters of polystyrene per year, he added.
In April, AdePlast said it would expand production to Ukraine, where it plans to build two polystyrene and dry mortar production units in partnership with other investors.
Barbut told Mediafax at that time the investment was estimated at about EUR17 million and AdePlast might contribute half of the sum.
The company owns three industrial platforms locally, in Oradea, Ploiesti and Roman. It produces adhesives, dry mortar and expanded polystyrene and registered sales of EUR41 million last year.
