The event was attended by the two vice-presidents of Henkel divisions at European level, Birgit Rechberger-Krammer, vice-president of Henkel Consumer Brands (HCB) Europe and Piotr Ciborowski, vice-president of Henkel Adhesive Technologies (HAT) Europe, and the two leaders of Henkel divisions in Romania, namely, Andrei Dumitrescu, General Manager of HAT and President of HRO, and Andrey Yekimov, General Manager of HCB.
Romania is an important market for both Henkel divisions. The Adhesive Technologies division has three production units on the local market, and for the Henkel Consumer Brands division, Romania is the second largest market in Central and Eastern Europe, after Poland.
In Romania, Henkel has three pconstruction adhesives production units located in Pantelimon (inaugurated in 2000), Campia Turzii (inaugurated in 2007) and Roznov (inaugurated in 2013). The total value of Henkel’s investments in its Romanian production facilities exceeds EUR50 million.
“In more than 30 years of activity, Henkel has proven it is a responsible citizen of Romania, offering support, encouraging, and promoting Romanian values—whether in economic sectors and new market segments, or in education, environment, culture, arts, and social projects. Through our activities, we have shown that we care about Romania, its traditions and values, and we will continue to support what is valuable in the country,” said Andrei Dumitrescu, President of Henkel Romania.
“The upward trajectory of the local business and Romania’s strategic importance in Henkel’s portfolio were the decisive factors that led to the relocation of the company’s headquarters in Bucharest. I look confidently toward the future and am convinced that Henkel will become a much more attractive employer in this new chapter,” concluded Andrei Dumitrescu.
Henkel Romania SRL ended 2024 with a turnover of RON1.23 billion, up 3% year-over-year, net profit of RON68 million and 183 employees, per finance ministry data.
