“We will continue to invest in the two plants in Dambovita County, in Ulmi and Gaesti. The project to increase the production capacity by 10% in Gaesti is in progress and the facility is the biggest in continental Europe,” the company representatives say.

The plant in Gaesti ended 2020 with a production of more than 2 million units. The facility in Ulmi, inaugurated in 2019, following a EUR150 million investment, made 1 million washing machines last year.

“The Ulmi plant will reach peak capacity of 2 million units this year (…)”

Arctic’s owner is Turkey’s Arcelik group, which has invested more than EUR320 million in it so far. Arcelik bought Arctic almost two decades ago.
