My favourite bit of this is still;

We are excited about the prospects for Starpol 2000 as a global standard in packaging materials.

That is called aiming for the stars!!!
Alan

Well done, Pope and Alan. I tend not to focus that much on Starpol because the number projection has been small compared with GreenSeal. However, the Wal-Mart progress is a direct consequence of the FDA approval and very positive. Good to keep the epckers up and thus enjoy a good nights sleep.
Eric

i have been told starpol 2000 will overtake greenseal in 12- 18 months

ssanebs are you getting good vibes re results tomorrow and/or outlook statement?
cheers

ssanebs Wonder what your source is, although you presumably assume it is good. Given that starpol is esssentially a commodity, I wonder whether to be elated by Starpol or disappointed with GreenSeal. How do you see the associated cap. for each product in 18 moths time. Perhaps that's a better way to ank the question.

It should hope so. One being a special seal solution, the other environmentally friendly plastic packaging. The latter clearly has a huge amount more potential than simply a seal which customers would have specific requirements for. Starpol can be used across the board for a huge amount of retail scenarios. I don't think Persco would be sniffing around if SEO only had Greenseal in the pipeline.

Definitely Starpol is the Tetrapak equivalent product-not Greenseal.

Just a few observations with no axe to grind

evo - I would take a sceptical view of their recommendations on any stock.

ek - not beyond disinformation for own ends and has called it horribly wrong many times before

charts and zak mir - also called it wrong many times before. Is charting really relevant on such micro caps?

I have no view either way really on the share.

zscrooge - lets hear you call it then....

One of the best uses for charts is for trading mostly blue chips, thats why Zak Mir advises CFD firms like Blue index who trade on tight stops.

zscrooge: Don't see SEO as a micro cap, whatever your definition. More a fundamentalist than a chartist but you only need to study the charts and you can see, at least in retrospect, that the charts are a good trading tool. Used Blue Index last year; Zak Mir was consulted on SEO and he gave useful interpretation of chart pattern which essentially proves my point. In fact, your evo comment is also a sweeping generalisation. I find their analyses generally helpful although, unsurprisingly, it varies by analyst. If you access their site have a look at Alizyme where their analysis is very relevant in terms of the forecast model applied.

Ok just off to bedfordshire but before then I am going to make a wild predictiction as to how the share price will react. Have absolutely no idea, but for comedy value I'm gonna make a prediction...

A drop initially to 14.75, 15.25 by lunch time ending at 15.5 at close of trading...

Anything higher, then first round is on me for anyone living in or near Leeds!!

Hunty!

I like this :

"We are evaluating one tray, for one customer that has a current usage of 1.5 billion units per annum. Each tray weighs approx 50 grams and therefore consumes around 75,000 tonnes of (non-environmentally friendly) plastic a year. It would require between 500 and 600 tray lidders to seal just these trays. We are able to offer a complete solution through the supply chain."

Look like all is going to plan and we're on target. Some big stuff to come shortly I Suspect. Plan to ramp up Starpol production is excellent.

Not fully digested it yet but it looks like Starpol is going to be the main product doesn't it?

I think Starpol has always been the main product - thats why they named their Headquarters "Starpol Technology Centre" - several years ago in fact.

Very much a 'Rome wasn't built in a day' type of report which some will NOT like, personally I think it paints a very good picture for the future, if there is a dip in the sp today I will add, otherwise I am still holding for my pension plan! There is some VERY encouraging stuff in the report, otherwise much as expected, especially the 2 Greenseal conversions. about which they have been very open, at least testing is now on "an extended shift work basis" gotta be good!

kim

Tony

Yes, my feeling too, I think that the promise of Greenseal, whilst clearly still there, was a little over-hyped, it should have been obvious that there would be teething problems, but with hindsight and all that; it still remains a very strong second string to SEO's bow IMO.

kim

Initially - disappointed.
Gonna read them again and look for the plus points.
Alan

Disappointed? What exactly where you expecting? Good steady progress, that's what I read.

Its what i'm starting to theink of as the SEO syndrome!!!
Don't get me wrong, I'm as confident as ever of this being an excellent medium - long term hold.
Losses higher than anticipated, don't care - not a great issue currently.
The real thing is that the company is doing all the right things and talking to all the right customers. It has the right product and the future looks very good.
The issue is the vagueness of everything. How many Starpol licenses? How much is each one worth? What are the discussions with Persico exactly? How do the JV's with WalMart work? Will the 200 conversions be hit? etc. etc.
The commentary hints at these things with no clue to the answers.
I am still holding and will continue to do so, I amy even add, but I get a little bit of a sour taste from what I feel are political answers!
I keep arguing with myself that of course the developments are vaguely reported, until negotiations are complete they cannot put figures on them, but I had hoped that, for instance, the Persico thing would say negotiations for the supply of Starpol to XYZ Ltd, who make takeaway drinks cups for ABC Ltd. Or something like that.
never mind. Holding tight for the next RNS. Again.
Alan

Just remember Alan they are in trials with Wal-Mart, things can't be that bad! Look at the quote re the tray that uses 75,000 tonnes of plastic per year and 500 machines! That is what they are looking at at the minute, great stuff!
