Austria’s Bramac has been present in Romania since 1995, when it opened a sales office in Brasov (central Romania). Bramac started its production in Romania in 2004, following a greenfield investment of nearly EUR6 million into a factory in Sibiu (central Romania).
In 2011, Austria’s Bramac was fully acquired by Braas Monier Building Group (BMI Group), a building materials manufacturer headquartered in Luxembourg. Bramac has factories in several European countries, among which Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Croatia.
Mircea Dumitru, Country Managing Director BMI Romania, said the change of the company’s name will strengthen the foothold of BMI Romania and of brands in the field on the local roofing market and not only.
The company has also developed online platform academiabmi.ro designed for architects, builders and real estate developers.
Braas Monier Building Group (European leader in the manufacturing of slanted roofing systems) and Icopal Group (European leader in the manufacturing of flat roofing systems) merged in 2017. Following the merger, BMI GROUP has become Europe’s largest manufacturer of slanted and flat roofing systems and complete solutions for hydroinsulation.
