Quite agree with you Mr Stockdog.

A nice piece on tv today arguing the merits and demerits of banning plastic bags at the checkout, much the way they have done in Ireland.

Interestingly, the removal of liberal numbers of plastic bags in Ireland was accepted by the majority quite painlessly. Would seem they are a true "green" country after all.
There is still the opportunity to offer the biodegradeable alternative from SEO.
we have a fantastic momentum building in green packaging. We are not yet there but green will become the norm across a broad range of consumables. It was this that brought me into SEO at 4p many moons ago.

A no-brainer eventually , just the timescales which I cannot be too sure of.

This weeks fall back in price provided a nice opportunity to top up.
Not worried

.........
Some say he was paid by SEO, well Oblomov did, perhaps he was right,or perhaps that was jealousy, Oblomov is pretty creepy anyway, fear of libel probably stopped him going further with the accusation.........

Whilst I do not wish to become involved in the present bout of trashy posts I have to put the record straight on this one. I have never said PM1 or anyone for that matter was paid by SEO , so I dont know where you got that one from. Well, actually I may do because some time ago when I first looked at this BB and being rather 'green' to the way these BB's worked, I sent a private message to Sequestor and asked him if PM1 was paid by SEO because of PM1's ramping of the share.

I assume you are Sequestor in a new guise and have made the 'creepy' gibe because I 'helped' to get you banned on FYB where you had all but destroyed the SEO thread.

apologies to baza and anyone else finding this boring, (including myself), but.....dormar, you really should have just posted your first sentence and left it there. it was all that needed to be said. why you then had to give us all your ill-thought-out opinion of pm1 baffles me. as for research, i did mine a few years ago. did you?
tomorrow is monday, the start of a new week and an important week for seo. wouldn't it be great if the thread returned to having seo as its focus.

Andysmith

You may be right but based on recent RNS which included ASDA confirming they were on course to have 200 machines from their supply base converted to "Greenseal", and Northern Foods being one of their main suppliers I'd bet quite a few quid that Northern Foods are adopting the technology. If I remember rightly (stand corrected if I am wrong) but "ready meals" was one of the tests that ASDA carried out earlier in the year with SEO.

I contacted NF and they confirmed that they had NOT adopted the SEO products YET. - and I think that this was confirmed by SEO wwho said that they were not on their pririty list. Mind - that was about 2 weeks ago

Baza

Brandname, I agree and hope that it is true, I am aware of other developments as well but I don't know if a) they've been offered to Asda or b) the packaging has been greenseal tested. The reason is that Greenseal might defeat the whole object of a new concept being developed for a part of the ready meals market. Then again Greenseal might not affect it and it might be that its Greenseal +Starpol anyay, the point is we don't know yet.

Morning all,
Does anyone know which day (if any) SEO are presenting in Philly. Or which day NW & WM are making their presentation?
Alan

NW and WM are on Wednesday

thanks, biscuit.
Alan

Alan

From memory, this afternoon/evening is mainly registration and then the official business starts tomorrow. I think that Natureworks and WalMart are presenting tomorrow.

If they are going to mention any SEO products in their presentation, then I suspect we may see a RNS tomorrow probably well after the market has opened in the UK so as not to steal too much of the their business partners' thunder.

IMHO

The oily one

Alan,

my understanding was that SEO are not actually presenting in Philly, although they are attending. Full details at link below, including Agenda and 'attendee' list.

I believe it was suggested SEO may be involved in the Natureworks presentation (details here), but not sure if that was confirmed.

I cant see any mention of Walmart, even on the 'attendee' list. ANyone know where the adea of Walmart's involvement springs from?

WM/NW are talking between 8am and 9.30am on Wednesday morning (Philly time)

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

Ob,
Can't be bothered to wade back through a zillion posts but I am pretty certain someone flashed up a google or something that said Walmart were co-presenting with someone, possibly NW.
Ladies and Gentlemen, place your bets. An RNS this week announcing a link up and a rising sp, or no RNS, no announcement and a plummeting sp? I'm hedging at simply not taking any position at all!!
