In 1986, together with the now managing director of ROMEX^® Produktionsgesellschaft mbH Klaus Lobsensky, he formed the first synthetic resin paving joint mortar.

In 2002 ROMEX^® bought a property in Meckenheim and began the production of the paving joint mortar ROMPOX^® - EASY. A year later the company introduced the paving joint mortar ROMPOX^® - D2000. In the public sector, this synthetic resin based product developed to become the standard for use in the repair and newbuild of paved stone surfaces.

In 2005 the ROMEX ^® production facility was expanded with the purchase of a logistics centre and a farm in Meckenheim, which became the company headquarters of the newly formed ROMEX^® PFM GmbH. On site there are large area of paving to showcase the range of paving joint mortars. Two years later a sample garden was opened at this location. In 2011 ROMEX^® MB began the sale of floor coatings in Germany. In 2012 production was expanded thanks to significant investments in research and development. In 2013 a new showroom was opened at the headquarters of ROMEX^® MB in Euskirchen-Weidesheim with course rooms and sample surfaces of all floor coatings and paving joint mortars.

The year 1989 was a year of change. Such years only happen two or three times during a century. One of these changes was the fall of the „Eastern Bloc“. Rolf Meurer recognised the possibilities of this development. In order to fulfill his vision, he sold his home in order to have the necessary capital to form ROMEX^® GmbH, which acted as a trading company for the sale of liquid plastics, mainly for floor coatings and bridge sealing, and in the beginning primarily exporting to Eastern Europe.

The word ROMEX is a synonym of the words Rolf Meurer Export.

He followed his vision so successfully, that the company was expanded with a production facility and the sales territories also increased continuously. ROMEX^® has become known worldwide as a recognised brand for floor coatings, thanks to the products developed especially to meet the needs of clients combined with their unique standard of service. Close working together between ROMEX^® as the material manufacturer, laying companies and the enduser, are the key to their great success! Business branched out into a new sector with the innovative synthetic resin based paving joint mortars and have since proved to be competition for the major companies in the cement industry. Continous research and development of their own products followed. As a manufacturer they were independent of others and could set up their own quality standards to reach new levels of quality compared to the more common jointing materials such as sand or gravel.

Today ROMEX^® counts as one of the worldwide leading brands in the sectors for synthetic resin based floor coatings and paving joint mortars with the seal of approval - „Made in Germany“.
