The growth was mainly driven by a nearly 5% rise in sales from the Retail channel.
In the third quarter of 2025, SIPEX advanced its plans to build a modern production facility in Ariceștii Rahtivani (Prahova), obtaining all approvals for the submission of the PUZ documentation.The investment is estimated at EUR 20 million, with works expected to start in 2026 and to be completed in 2027, subject to the financing sources that can be secured.
„2025 is a year that tests companies’ adaptability and long-term vision. In an economic context marked by cost pressures and decrease demand in the B2B, SIPEX strengthened its position through careful sales planning, rigorous inventory control, and consistent financial discipline. The Retail channel remains the main growth driver, with sales higher by over RON 6.6 million compared to the first nine months of 2024. At the same time, the B2B channel, although it recorded a moderate decrease of 2.2%, continues to be essential for the company’s strategic development. In the third quarter, we recorded the highest turnover of the year,” stated Irinel Gheorghe, CEO SIPEX.
Operating revenues reached RON261.4 million, a slight +1.5% increase, supported by the Retail channel’s performance amid a decline in B2B sales.
Operating expenses totalled RON256.2 million, (+1%). The main operating cost category is cost of goods, accounting for nearly 84%.
Total assets reached approximately RON151.4 million, up 13% compared to the beginning of the year.
Total liabilities reached RON65.6 million, up 38.1%, mainly due to an 18.8% increase in inventories compared to the beginning of the year.
SIPEX operates with an integrated business model, organized into three business lines: sales and distribution of construction and finishing materials, services (technical consultancy), and sales of finished colored products.
The company has around 300 employees, owns 12 logistic centers and a car fleet of 191 vehicles.
