“The opening of this plant is an important moment for Romania and for the entire Eastern European region. The waxed paper, made entirely from vegetal materials, is a fully biodegradable product, which fits perfectly into the European Union strategy to reduce the environmental impact of plastic. Packaging food in waxed paper is safe for consumers and for the planet,  providing retailers in Romania, US countries and the US with an environment-friendly solution that consumers will also appreciate,” said Nadia Stoian, chief operating officer of the Exonia plant.

Exonia makes the BIOLIN waxed paper in Iasi. This type of paper is used to package foods such as burgers, shawarma, salami, cakes and others.
