The German group’s sales in Romania stood at EUR15 million in 2012.
Gabriel Nicolaescu, deputy general manager of VEKA Romania, said in the press release 2013 was very challenging for the construction sector and implicitly for the thermo-insulating carpentry segment. For 2014, the company expects higher exports of class A PVC carpentry and will seek to tap non-traditional markets such as North America and the Middle East.
VEKA Romania has around 180 partenrs, whose exports are on the rise, the company also said.
VEKA’s main competitors in Romania are Germany’s Gealan and Rehau.
