The plant will become operational in the coming weeks. We are glad that despite all the major challenges of this period we succeed in completing this very complex project, without deviating significantly from the initial schedule. EBITDA in the newly added packaging segment has been affected by these minor delays, but also by the costs involved by rendering this major project operational. However, we are convinced that the investments made will produce promising results in the medium and long term in the biodegradable packaging sector where we want to become one of Central and Eastern Europe's major players," said Ioana Birta.TeraPlast Group includes companies TeraPlast, TeraGlass, TeraPlast Recycling, TeraBio Pack and Somplast.
