Welcome rabbit "Starpol 3000". Live long and prosper!

And, also thanks for your efforts.

Spoken like a true vulcan.
Thanks for taking the time to do that, Bema.
Going to digest (or compost) the answers and see what I think. (Not that it will be worth reading my thoughts)!!
Alan

bema,

Thanks for your posting and the effort made to put it together.

Although not price enhancing information, which we did not expect anyway, it was useful to have a peep behind the scenes as it were.

I think this share has great potential, but not for the impatient " long termer" if that is not a contradiction in term(er)s.

Congartulations Bema - and well done
A comprehensive response - the only answer I was a little bit No - a lot) disappointed with was the schedule of greenseal - referring us to an update that is 3 months old - something not quite right - unless we are getting an update tomorrow - therefore price sensitive !!.

Baza.

Bema,

Same from me. Many thanks re your time and trouble on our behalf,

Thanks greekman.

Blunt1910,

Looking again at Bema's post, it reads that an update will be included in tomorrows release.

Hi,
Just re-read it myself. It doesn't give much away, but we never expected it to. Interesting that the word imminent is used in point 17. It was also interesting that regarding ciggy filters, he could have said "we have not yet decided when to auction", or "there are no plans yet for an auction timescale".
He didn't. He just said this information was price sensitive. This leads me to believe that this auction has now been decided and the news will be released shortly.
Other intersting points to note, were that starpol and greenseal were priority, but there were many other products to be worked on and the improvement from 2000 to 3000.
All in all, not spectacular (never thought it would be) but promising and reassuring.
Alan

The last time things were looking good with Stanelco, IG Index closed all bets. The share price leaped nearly 20% within days. It will be very interesting to see what happens in the next couple of weeks.

With regards to question 16...

16) Why has nothing further has been mentioned about the Reckitt Beckinser, Reiser and Grampian trials? This gives the impression that these issues have now been quietly dropped.

We are expecting to do business with all of these companies. RB Electrosol Gel Packs and now Finish Quantum are using Stanelco technology on products which can be found in the High Street.


Presumably, this press release from Reckitt Benckiser implies SEO (Aquasol) involvment!

Launch of Finish Quantum A Breakthrough in Automatic Dishwashing


Reckitt Benckiser plc (RB.L) today announces the UK launch of Finish Quantum - a breakthrough in automatic dishwashing. Created from revolutionary design and intellectual property-protected technology, Finish Quantum is the first product to combine powder, gel and Powerball technology in one single dose, with the added benefit of no unwrapping.


This innovation is new and completely different to any other recent product changes, and signifies a step-change in product design, based on:

a water-soluble capsule containing three separate chambers
separately sealing highly effective and otherwise incompatible cleaning agents
releasing these agents at the right stage of the cleaning cycle to perform specific functions


Finish Quantum is also convenient for the consumer to use: there is no need to add salt or rinse aid, as this is included in the product; glass protection is also integrated; and now there is no longer a need to unwrap before using.


In consumer testing 7 out of 10 consumers said that they prefer Finish Quantum to their current product and 8 out of 10 said the product exceeded their expectations.


Finish Quantum is recommended by major dishwashing manufacturers including Bosch, Whirlpool and Electrolux. It is being launched in all major supermarkets across the UK, and is being progressively rolled-out to other markets in Europe in due course.


Commenting Bart Becht, Chief Executive Officer of Reckitt Benckiser said: -


Innovation is a cornerstone of our growth strategy with 40% of net revenues coming from products launched in the past 3 years, reflecting our passion for developing better solutions for our consumers. Finish Quantum is a breakthrough in automatic dishwashing products. As the global market leader in this high growth category, we have been responsible for the major innovations for consumers the first company to produce 2-layer tablets in dishwashing, and the 3in1 and the 4in1, adding the Powerball cleaning technology. Now, Finish Quantum offers consumers new levels of dishwasher performance combined with convenience. We believe it will help to build on our strong global leadership in this category.

No problem people,

It doesn't take long and with everyones input it makes sure i don't remember that "one question" right after i hit the send key!

I'd like to add a public thanks to Terry Robins for his answers. I gave him the site address so you never know, he might be interested on how the info was received.

It all sounds good to me and reiterates that we need to be patient. However i can rest easier now knowing a little more of whats going on behind the scenes.

My only problem is Bazza calling me a "she" on ADVFN. Wonder how i gave that impression? :o)

A little bit of my discussion with PM1 on the answers....

............................................................ ................................................

Well done, an excellent collection of questions and answers :)

Only a few skirted around, but some very positive insights gained there, especially where 'imminent' or 'in the near future' are in the answers !

I got the answers I had expected to my own questions, numbers 2,3,4,5 and I guess I suggested 6, backing up my own research efforts :)

Question 3 tells us that the Patent I found is indeed Oxygen Scavengers, and they have yet to be released, and in answering that question today and confirming it, I wonder if the announcement is soon, maybe even tomorrow ?

Starpol 3000 is seen as having a huge market benefit, we don't know what that huge 'market benefit' is (and I said the product announced at the show would be big !) so expect an announcement for that too.

In the USA, as I said they need full FDA approval, then it will pop because most USA packagers use PP with it's poor MAP gas barrier, and is getting darn expensive for all retailers that use it, as is APET !

FDA approval is stated as 120 days, but that is the limit, and another shareholder was told that the 120 days started 3 weeks ago, but fruit and veg was cleared in less than 2 weeks from the start date, so I suggest it is being speedily processed, as the environmental benefits are huge, plus Wal-Mart and maybe others might have requested priority status from the FDA, as it is otherwise holding up their take up of an environmentally friendly packaging.


Thanks again, and keep up the good work :)
Paul

Apologies if he's hi-jacking someones questions i can't remember who suggested what! ;o)

Thankyou Bema, someuwin and Terry.

Great news, lookin' good.

;-)

well dome bema. i think it's a very interesting set of replies. if you copy and paste them together the answers to the first few questions reads like an rns.

"Several members of Stanelcos management team were present at the Philadelphia conference, including the MD and Commercial director and myself. At the last moment we were given the opportunity to present a paper on Green Seal and Starpol 2000 material. The presentation was given by myself and was well received. We were also given the opportunity to set up a table top presentation of material at an evening reception where we showed Green Seal, Starpol material, Cradle wrap and other Stanelco products. A great deal of interest was shown with several leads to follow up.
Starpol is a range of materials, a new formulation Starpol 3000 is a bio-compostable material with many of the attributes of Starpol 2000 but has high clarity. This material is seen as having a huge market benefit.
O2 scavengers have yet to be released.
A number of potential customers in the USA require full FDA approval prior to adopting Starpol materials for food products. Initially we are targeting replacement of APET
In the USA most trays used are Polypropylene materials. Whilst in the UK they are PET, however PP does not have as good a gas barrier which makes Starpol 2000 a good alternative to move directly into a biodegradable option.
The material has been granted food approval for fruit and vegetables and in currently awaiting final approval for all other foods. This is a statutory 120 days time frame with has already started.
PLA is a component of Starpol 2000 material and we have secured an ample supply from Natureworks
Natureworks LLC, a Cargill company is a supplier of PLA to us. It is likely that there will be some joint promotion "

but i think the stand out phrase for me was this,

"The Mondini project is ongoing as is the building of a purpose built RF machine with Proseal and others companies which will be placed into factories imminently. "

sounds very nice.

US says down - chart says SE0 down - testing the bottom of the channel today ?

bos, let's face it - the thought of all that shiny new equipment humming in action just got you going, admit it - music to your ears.

Thanks Bema and others involved.

Apologies Bema - dont know where I picked up the "she" thing from. One of those things that stick in your mind from comments made - obviously got that wrong - no offence intended
