Romcim, the cement producer owned by the Irish from CRH, has taken over the concrete producer Wopfinger, which operates six stations in Cluj-Napoca, Braşov, Constanţa and Bucharest.
The integration of Wopfinger is part of the group’s strategy to strengthen its local presence and support major infrastructure projects, industrial and non-residential construction, but also the residential segment, say Romcim representatives.
“Proximity and local presence play an essential role in our industry, and this acquisition significantly strengthens our presence in the most dynamic urban markets in Romania and illustrates ROMCIM’s commitment to becoming the main supplier of construction materials for the construction sector in Romania,” says Frederic Aubet, General Manager of CRH companies in Romania.
