The Romanian tissue paper producer Rom Paper registered an increase in sales in 2017 of 67 million Romanian Leus (i.e. about 14.5 million Euros). This equals a year-on-year increase of 21%, although 2017 was a difficult year because of an increase in raw materials prices and in personnel costs. In 2018, the company aims at investing about 1.1 million Euros to expand the area of its production plants and buy new machinery.
