The investment project involving the new production unit and Brachotrapez headquarters of Baia Mare is totally worth RON12.4 million, with state aid accounting for half of the sum, according to Jaroslaw Turczynski, CEO of Blachotrapez Romania.
He expects the production unit to be completed in February 2022 and the headquarters in May 2022, with the new capacity to become operational next summer.
Blachotrapez ended 2020 with turnover worth RON75 million, flat year-on-year, but profit almost doubled, to RON3 million. The company has 95 employees.
Blachotrapez has two plants in Romania, in Baia Mare and Ploiesti, with total production capacity of 7 million square metres of tiles annually.
The company entered the Romanian market in 2010.
