The investment comes 15 years after the implementation of a project to retrofit the plant, worth over EUR100 million.
“Holcim believes in the development capacity of the Romanian economy, that’s why large and constant investments are made both in the existing production capacities, as well as in new business opportunities. Following this new investment, we can say that the cement factory in Campulung is becoming the most modern cement plant in Romania, responding responsibly to the needs of our customers to build with high-performance construction materials. At the same time, we continue to provide attractive jobs and contribute to local development,” said Cornel Banu, Industrial Director of Holcim Romania and Moldova.
Holcim is active on the local market with two plants.
In 2022, Holcim had a profit of RON427.8 million and a turnover of RON2.2 billion.
Holcim is part of the LafargeHolcim Group created in 2015 following a share-swap merger which gave birth to the world’s largest cement producer.
In early 2021, Bogdan Dobre took the helm of Holcim Romania, succeeding Horia Adrian.
