Between 2019 and 2023, the Romanian market for not reinforced or laminated non-cellular PP sheet showed steady growth in physical volume, expanding from 30 009 t to 35 102 t. Domestic production more than doubled in this period, from 4 146 t to 5 841 t, while imports remained the primary source of supply. In value terms, the market's worth rose from $97.5 million to a peak of $139.7 million in 2022 before a slight contraction to $129.1 million in 2023.

In 2024, the market volume saw a significant increase to 39 447 t, with its value recovering to $138.6 million. This expansion was driven by stronger demand from the construction sector, where the volume of engineering works grew by approximately 12% in the first eight months of the year. Concurrently, rising imports from non-EU countries added supply to the market, helping to meet the heightened demand.
