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 :)

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

It isn't Finish magnum, it is Finish Quantum. Reading the link from post 12234, it looks like they can use materials together, that they couldn't before, and time the release of each material, to avoid them mixing.
Not a dishwashing expert, so perhaps I am wrong, but have a look yourself!!

Are there any housewives out there who can answer that?

aldwickk: ask ii -he normally sounds like housewife ena sharples

The Finish Quantum product is clearly on the shelves currently, and has been in testing prior to this for some time. If Stanelco are receiving royalties per unit sold (or produced?), then this clearly adds to their income and therefore an RNS should have already been released by now?

I don't quite understand this... Is there anyone who does?

Also what is an RB Electrosol Gel Pack?

Been out all day, so Thanks to Bema/Someuwin and others for excellent informative posts.

Carlosmac,

Re the lack of RNS for Reckitts, Finish Quantum, as Recketts have hundreds of products i would think due to SEO stateing that they would not release news for every deal, they were/are expecting more from Reckitts, ( this is just a guess for what its worth ). As to the Electrosol Gel Pack, its manufactured by two large companies that I know of , Proctor and Gamble, who's product contains a powder and a liquid whilst that produced by Reckitt Benckiser and marketed in Canada, is a water-soluble capsule enclosing liquid detergent. Can't find if Reckitts market this product in the UK yet. Hope this assists.

Yet another food packaging scare, but this one has persuaded a supermarket ( OK may be a Chinese company but it makes you think ) to re-think its packaging to the point of refusing to use PVC type food wrapping films.

MOST local supermarkets say they are switching from PVC cling film packing raw meat, vegetables and cooked food to PE material, which is considered safe.

But customers still worry about the possible harm of cling films used in supermarkets.

The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said on Tuesday after a spot check that PVC cling film can be dangerous if directly packing meat, cooked food and fatty food. Cling films are made of three materials: PVDC (polyvinylindene chloride), PE (polytene) and PVC (polyvinyl chloride).

I have a copy of the presentation given by SEO at the Philadelphia conference if anyone is interested ? It is a Freelance presentation - perhaps Driver could find some way of adding it to the research pages ??
