Hi All,

I like the bit in the report about Wal-Mart currently using polypropylene, and thus needing to convert the plastic type as well if they want to use Greenseal, because Greenseal does not work on polypropylene, so IMHO the FDA approval of Starpol 2000 for meat, fish, etc (MAP packaging) is whats holding them back right now.

Once the FDA gives approval, and there is no reason to think they won't, as the EU already has, then I see no reason why we won't get a deal with Wal-Mart, for Greenseal+Starpol.

Cheers,
PM

Also in the report is that Wal-Mart will need such a huge amount of packaging, that Stanelco would licence the Starpol 2000 IP to another manufacturer, and just receive royalties, which makes me instantly think of Natureworks ....

Can I have a copy please Paul.

Cheers ;)

Thanks for the welcome; I have lowered my percent on this stock on my port so it doesn't do my brain in so much.

Looks like a bit of profit taking towards the end - still a good day compared to the rest of the market.

PM I'll join the T&G brigade if youn would be so kind (ericrobson99@hotmail.com) Will try to appraise at the weekend though off for a hol within a hol in luxury near Krabbe.

Apart from the trading arrangement with SP metal have seen nothing on Starpol volumes or revenue and therefore contribution. I accept the argument that it is good for Greenseal sales, see PM's comment re wal-Mart, but that is factored into current sp, I reckon. A decent stand-alone figure for Starpol would help; we need an idea re the number of 0's! Two or three weeks around the present elvel would be no pad thing, at the least establishing a support level. Volumes good with buys outnumbering sells, but if buying dries up, the drip drip selling could take over again driving the sp lower. Quite an important period coming up methinks.

Anyone else notice a 1.3million buy go through after the bell, at a premium to the offer. Speaking as a dumb blonde, does this have any significance, or is it just a late reported trade at an earlier, higher sp?

Interesting to see some contrasting forecasts posted yesterday (Hemscott). KBC Peel Hunt repeat their figures for 2004: 7.34M pounds with eps of 0.43. Tether and Greenwood come in with 0.1 on 4.0m. Evolution have reduced forecast to 2.1 on 4.0M. KBC peel Hunt are house brokers and you would normally expect theri figures to be close to actual comapny projections. Evo could be down on a once bitten twice shy basis. T&G may be the one to take as new boys on the block and who have presumably done up-to-date research. Given that any of these would confirm a steep growth curve, the sp should then be considerably higher. Those of us who now know the company well don't have much problem with a year or two down the road. Have we weathered the recent storms is the key question: jury out on that in my view, still.

Another example of the push to re-cycle taken from the William lake Tribune.
No doubt there are many such projects worldwide every day. A lengthy article so won't paste the link but this bit stands out, as an exception to many items mentioned re re-cycling.

What not to put out for re-cycling....Plastic bags, Styrofoam, plastic packaging and other odds-and-ends plastic items. Unfortunately these must all be sent to the landfill.

Yes I know we are all aware the the problem with plastics but the more landfill costs/shortages rise the more urgent it becomes to find alternatives.

At our local tip the price for commercial dumping has increased 10 fold in the last 3 years. Fly tipping has also increased, I wonder why.

Paul

I get stuff from you periodically, so assume that I am on your mailing list?

The oily one

Alan - cant really tell - but I took it as a sell because most of the day - when anybody went to sell any stock at 14.25 - it was snapped upby someone - then the price rose. My take on it was it was a sell - but of course I may be wrong because if it was a worked trade I would have expected to see a WT type of trade.
The price did play silly buggers in the last 5 minutes of time and just after the bell as well.

ok so I dont really know

alan: the dumb blondes in my time never asked me that sort of question; mind that was before the internet days. If there daddy's brought them up on his knee with the internet, perhaps that's what they say now; gee, ello, Al, what do you make of my 14p trade? Best reply, Alan: 'if you'll take it right now, I'll give you 15p's worth!'

If it was a trade from an hour earlier, the sp was 14.25p to 14.5p so it would be a sell at under the market which you might expect. By the way, I don't look on you as one of the dumb posters on this thread! I forecast a rush of complaints from various sources that 'Eric has called them dumb'. lol! What did I say about distance giving perspective eh?

Stanelco to Unveil New Starpol 2000 Products at 2005 Sustainable Packaging Forum;

Biodegradable Products on Display in Forum Exh

Stanelco PLC (LSE:SEO) will unveil new products from the
Starpol range of biodegradable, compostable plastic materials at
Packaging Strategies' inaugural Sustainable Packaging Forum in
Philadelphia October 17-19, 2005. Starpol 2000 is a biodegradable
material consisting of PLA (Polylactic Acid), a starch derivative,
which can be used in place of expensive petroleum-based products
plastics. Stanelco will participate in a speaking engagement while at
the forum, as well as exhibit samples of its new Starpol 2000 products
at the Sustainable Packaging Materials Expo, following the first day
of the conference.

The starch-based Starpol 2000 materials will completely biodegrade
in an active compost in approximately 60 days. The material is
available in a range of blends and can be used in sheet or film form
for a diverse range of products including food containers, carrier
bags and shopping bags.

"Stanelco is deeply invested in finding renewable, recyclable
packaging products," said Stephanie Morgan-Fisher, director and CEO of
North American Operations, Stanelco, Inc. "With arenas such as the
Sustainable Packaging Forum, we are able to present companies with our
cost effective, environmentally responsible packaging solutions."

The Sustainable Packaging Forum is designed to help the consumer
goods and packaging industries understand sustainability, and where
packaging falls in context with sustainable initiatives. More than 200
attendees will be on site at the Forum.

"The Sustainable Packaging Forum will focus on two very distinct
sections. Our goal is to provide a total understanding of
sustainability and how it drives enterprise value, as well as provide
an understanding of what sustainability is not," said David
Luttenberger, publishing director of Packaging Strategies, the
organizer of the event. "At the Forum, we will also define sustainable
packaging technologies, innovations, and processes, and how they fit
into sustainability."

The inaugural Sustainable Packaging Forum will be held at the
Sheraton Society Hill in Philadelphia. Registration for the event is
open and sponsor and exhibit opportunities are available. For further

I'll happily take a rap over the knuckles for posting that. RHPS has made me a fair bit of cash over the years and is well worth the annual subscriptions for the tips and weekly updates.

TB's buy price is still 25p and target 50p.

He, like most of us on here know a good one when we see it!

QC

Thanks. That deserves a pint. I'm off for one, if you care to join me :-))

I would tony but I am on medication after some dental work so cant drink :-( lol

Thanks for that QC. Nice to know the views held by many on here are reflected by RHPS and SEO.
