Tony Hi,

Did you check to see who the manufacturer was ??

Cheers,

Paul

No mention of manufacturer. I thought of that, but all the packaging said was "Made for Asda" and gave an address in Leeds - ASDAs presumably.

Hi All,

Back to the Biotec cigarette filters, there are nearly 6 trillion cigarettes produced every year, and this is what the non-biodegradable filters do ....

Mother Earth is Not an Ashtray
Is mother earth being rained upon by over two billion new cigarette butts each day? Although accurate butt facts are rare, thats an average of less than two cigarette butts daily from each of earth's 1.2 billion smokers. Look closely at the ground at any intersection. Theyre everywhere!

Are cigarette butts litter? Absolutely! But unlike paper products theyre not biodegradable. Nearly all cigarette filters are composed of a bundle of 12,000 plastic-like cellulose acetate fibers. It can take years, in some cases up to fifteen, for the fibers to decay into a plastic powder that cant be seen. As they do their deadly cargo is released.

The nicotine trapped inside 200 used filters is sufficient to kill an adult human - 50 to 60 milligrams. Imagine a month without rain followed by a brief thunderstorm that washes hundreds of thousands of nicotine laden white and brown canoes - enough to kill 2,500 humans - into area creeks and streams. Aquatic life at the bottom of the food chain can pay a deadly price but so do the birds and fish who mistake them for food. Nicotine isnt the only villain as trapped tars and toxic gases leach into waterways too.

Tar refers to the more than three thousand five hundred chemical particles and five hundred gases generated by each burning cigarette that include arsenic, vinyl chloride, acetone, mercury and lead. Modern filters trap roughly half the tar while capturing one-third of a cigarettes formaldehyde and two-thirds of its hydrogen cyanide. Pick up a few dozen butts and take a big whiff. Smell the scent of bitter almonds? Thats hydrogen cyanide.

No way did I say that you were now the enemy, but I did detect in your post a very slight subtle deramp and the mention twice I think of a 12p sp you are the only one on this board apart from ii and sham who has done that, if you are out that isnt a problem you are always welcome on this board, even if you only have 20 shares.

Hi all,

I bought into SEO at the start of the year and I am in for the long haul flight.

May be of some interest.

"Modern filters trap roughly half the tar while capturing one-third of a cigarettes formaldehyde and two-thirds of its hydrogen cyanide. Pick up a few dozen butts and take a big whiff. Smell the scent of bitter almonds? "........

that's why ciggies taste so good after a meal. don't think of them as a post-meal smoke, it is in fact an almond dessert!!! mmmm. anyone got a light?

Paul

Thanks for that. I think the ASTM only refers to Carrier bags at present and only in the state of California. However my concern is that they pass similar stature in USA for Food packaging materials, therefore may be prudent for SEO / Biotec to obtain ASTM approval on Starpol 2000. i.e. beating the legislation in the USA before it appears.

We all know what the yanks are like, if it aint USA made then they will make it as difficult as possible.

Any chance of mailing SEO to see their thoughts ?

Brandname Hi,

I will e-mail your idea right now :)

Cheers,
PM

Thanks Paul, await their/your response.

Surely SEO have all the appropriate advisers, legal, commercial and statutory in the US to have made them aware of the all the pre-requisites to launching these products there and are subsequently working to ensure that they all fully complied with? Or am I just being too assumptive and presuming?

The oily one

You beat PM1 to it. Statistically he should have had it

Andy - I never thought taking a profit was equivalent to being a de-ramper.
Driver - no need to be so oversensitive
Bosley - I used to be a 30 almonds a day man, now I'm just nuts- sweet or what?
Paul - are you the bent-double old man with the holes in your overcoat that hangs around Camden tube, picking up butts?
SD - mind your own business

PM,

Not to poo poo your cigarette filter idea.

Stanelco themselves are marketing themselves as a green company and while the filters you mention would be a great idea I remain unconvinced that SEO would want any connection to one of the worlds biggest killers, smoking. Yeah, Greenseal saves xxxx in energy but we want you all to smoke our new tipped fags! Unsure of that one to be honest!

Q.

Brandname/Oily Hi,

I think Biotec would be able to use the ASTM standard as a selling point for the TPS, and not just in the USA but globally, as the ASTM standards are worldwide.

I know Starpol 2000 isn't going to be stopped by this legislation, but it would look good on Stanelco to get it prior to launch.

dog ends fit in nicely with my biodegradable coffins.

Stockdog, Paul is a 23 year old programmer. (my ProfilePro sofware tells me, it may be wrong).

QC Hi,

Indeed, you could be right, butt(lol !) what would the IP be worth to a cigarette manufacturer as a one off purchase ?

Also Biotec could still manufacture the plastic to make the filters, and the cigarette manufacturer or their supplier would use it to make the filters ...

Cheers,
PM

seo will then take care of all your biodegradable needs from the cradle to the grave. when you're born seo will provide bio-d nappies, as you get older seo will provide bio-d big mac cartons, as the stresses of life kick in and you turn to ciggies seo will provide bio-d fillters, and when you die........bio-d coffins!!!! fantastic!!!! we're rich i tell ya'.....rich!!! hallelujah!!

bos
You got it in one.
