Founded in 2007, RM2 is a vertically-integrated innovator in pallet development, manufacture, supply and management. Recognising that there are significant costs and drawbacks associated with traditional pallets, RM2 has established a disruptive presence in global pallet supply and aims to improve the supply chain of manufacturing and distribution businesses through the effective and efficient use and management of composite pallets.

RM2 has designed and manufactured the BLOCKPal™ pallet, a multi-trip, heavy duty composite pallet that is suitable for use in both automated and manual areas of the supply chain where there are high levels of movements. The composite material and the associated manufacturing process is designed to bring qualities of strength, durability, flexibility and scale of production as well as other benefits. The BLOCKPal™ pallet has been independently tested by leading institutions and has been shown regularly to outperform comparable products and industry standards.

RM2 aims to change the way its customers look at pallets from a consumable to an asset that can generate significant accretive profit margin. To do this, we align ourselves with potential customers – typically large manufacturing, distribution and retail businesses – to provide an integrated solution to their pallet and pallet movement needs, whilst interacting with other logistics partners, as necessary. RM2’s products have been developed in consultation with these customers and are designed to provide receivers of goods with greater visibility over costs and the ability to reduce the direct and indirect costs associated with inbound goods movements.

RM2 can supply its pallets and the associated services on a rental basis to closed loops or by outright sale and its production method is versatile enough to easily supply standard or bespoke pallets.

I get the feeling the senior management by now have a good guide of contacts and future orders of the business. Also the share purchases for various members of the boards family should bode well in the future.

RM2 chief executive raises stake

The chief executive of RM2 International bought shares in the pallet manufacturer in a show of confidence in the company.
Paul Walsh bought 100,000 shares for an individual price of 50p, spending a total of £50,000. Walsh now holds a total of 1.64m shares in RM2.

That is equal to 0.51% of the AIM-listed firm´s issued share capital.

In its December trading statement the group said that its levels of production were continuing to increase, in-line with demand.

Output was then running at a rate of approximately 3,000 BLOCKPal pallets per day. That was expected to increase significantly with demand through 2015.

The company was also continuing to ramp-up its production capacity at its Ontario facility, as planned.

Management also said that it remained focused on "converting its significant pipeline of opportunities into sizeable long-term orders and on extending its services with existing clients".

Do not think the market is convinced yet , even with the major share purchasing.

Still buying i see DC .

this is a real slow burner .... with a bit of luck it will eventually catch fire rather than be snuffed out, but could be a good 12/18/24 months yet

I think it is warming up. I think you are on a winner. Look at the huge director buying.
Just needs a steady flow of orders.

Just seen your post jimmy, A bit like the company we were talking about last night. I tend to think its better to take perhaps a small position early on.

i have this in my sipp so plenty of time .... i'm not scheduled to die for a good while yet :-)

Don't die yet otherwise there will not be many posters left. :-))
