Thus, Duraziv’s sales should be higher than EUR20 million in 2012.
For last year, the company initially planned for a 25% increase in turnover, and the target was later revised to 30% following first-half sales above expectations. Paint sales were double the company’s initial estimates and, at the end of the year, they amounted to EUR2 million, Duraziv said in a news release.
Duraziv plans sustained growth for the paints division and it has already started projects for the expansion of the washable paint line.
“We want paint to cover one third of the turnover, which would beget a balanced development,” Guzu said.
The adhesives segment increased by 35% in value and 40% in volume. Adhesives cover one third of the company’s sales.
The company’s portfolio also includes metal profiles, aside from adhesives and paint.
