TeraPlast Group returns to profit in H1 2025

Business Forum
Romanian TeraPlast Group, the largest polymer processor in Southeast Europe, recorded a positive net result of RON 3.4 million (€0.7 million) during H1 2025, a significant turnaround from the negative net result of RON -6.6 million (€-1.3 million) in the same period of 2024 due to higher demand for its products.

The company's turnover grew by 29% to RON 552 million (€111.4 million), while EBITDA saw a 74% increase, reaching RON 47 million (€9.5 million). 

Bogdan Crăciunaș, Financial Director of TeraPlast Group, said: "In the first semester of 2025, we delivered growing results, taking advantage of favourable conditions in the infrastructure market. The success of our subsidiaries outside Romania makes us confident that the internationalisation of the TeraPlast business is the right path, and it gives us the courage to continue on this road.”

However, the company is taking a conservative approach to its full-year estimations due to market uncertainty surrounding the pace of infrastructure investments in Romania.

The main segment, Installations, was a key driver of growth, with its EBITDA margin returning to a double-digit figure of 10.6%. Additionally, sales outside of Romania nearly doubled, increasing from RON 100 million (€20.2 million) to RON 195 million (€39.4 million). In terms of volume, the group's production and deliveries grew by 18% in H1, reaching 64,000 tons.

The Packaging segment experienced the largest turnover growth, rising by 51% to RON 74.8 million (€15.1 million). The granules and windows segments had shares of 9% and 5% respectively in the group's revenue.
