The construction has a total area of 52,900 square meters and will provide storage facilities for all the three divisions of Rehau Industries in Romania – Window Solutions, Building Solutions and Furniture Solutions. In addition, the hub will include a foiling facility dedicated to the window and door division.
The hub will help the company to serve the regional market and customers easily, offering much faster high-quality services, thanks to the proximity of European roads. In the beginning, Rehau products will leave the Sibiu hub to the Eastern European countries near Romania – the Republic of Moldova, Bulgaria or Greece.
“We are delighted to begin the construction works at the hub, which will help us meet the requirements of our customers in the region more quickly and easily. Our business has always focused on serving customers to the highest standards, so REHAU’s investment in this direction is a natural step. Romania will become a ket point for Rehau’s business in the region, and this gives us an extra reason to take bigger steps on the road to performance,” said Alexandru Oprea, Country Manager of Rehau Romania.
Once the hub starts operating, more than 60 new jobs will be created.
The Window Solutions division will be the main beneficiary of the hub in Sibiu due to the wrapping line that will operate in the new facility. The wrapping component will cover a significant part of the division’s current needs. From the new location, the Window Solutions Division will serve the markets of Romania, Bulgaria and Greece.
The inauguration of the regional hub is scheduled for the the first half of 2023.
