Carbochim invested 5 million Euro in new manufacturing facilities – The Diplomat Bucharest
Carbochim, the largest manufacturer of professional abrasives in Romania, recently completed the relocation and technological upgrade process, a project that required a 5 million Euro investment, aiming to streamline its industrial activity and optimize costs.
The new facilities provide better working conditions for the 160 employees. Highly efficient and energy saving machinery was purchased, and the facility was fitted with photovoltaic panels that can achieve an estimated 18 percent energy saving. The company plans to grow its business by 20 percent in the next 3 years, considering the substantial reduction in manufacturing costs.
Carbochim was established in 1949 in Cluj-Napoca. Last year, the company kickstarted a relocation and upgrade process from the former platform, where only 30 percent of the area was used for industrial activity, while the rest was either underused or residual.
The relocation was carried out in stages, so as not to disrupt the production activity. The departments in charge of abrasive items with ceramic binders, abrasive items with organic binders and cutting wheels are currently operating in the new location on 18 Muncii Boulevard, while the coated abrasives department is located on Orăștiei Street.
In addition to the 5 million Euro allotted to the relocation and technological upgrades, another 2 million Euro will be directed in the upcoming years to streamline the production lines.
