Easyfairs, Packaging Innovations 2009

Stanelco BioPlastics will be welcoming customers and potential customers to stand number 222 at this years Packaging Innovations exhibition. Packaging Innovations is co-located with ECOPACK, the event for environmentally responsible packaging and is particularly relevant for Stanelcos range of biodegradable and compostable polymers.

Well, you never know........they may get an order out of it!

"welcoming customers" ...... didn't know they had any

Seo has outperformed many blue chips over the last 12 months although not providing a divi it has been something of a safe haven!

hohohohoho! ..... that's cos it started at zero

Calm down Cynic. One would think you held SEO shares. Obviously your far far too clever an invester to get involved with this outfit. Now run along and share your finite wisdom with another board. Thanks.

Prelims are due on March 26. Could SEO finally be trading in the black? I think there's a good chance.

Abstract of GB 2450366 (A)
A product such as meat or a ready meal 12 is packaged in a tray 14 of a polymeric material, covered with a cover sheet 34. The cover sheet 34 is less than a third the thickness of the tray 14, which has a rim 16, and the cover sheet is welded to the rim of the tray by dielectric welding so as to form a seal along a welding line around the rim 16. Along that welding line the rim has a thinner portion 28 of thickness no more than twice the thickness of the cover sheet 34. The similarity in thickness between the two layers of polymeric material that are welded together makes dielectric welding easier to perform, and this provides the advantage that a good seal can be formed despite the presence of contamination on the surfaces, as is likely to occur when packaging foodstuffs. There is also no need for any surface bonding layer on either the tray or the cover film, or any adhesive."


I haven't a clue whether it has any importance, or if it is an indication that SEO are still fiddling about with Greenseal; just thought I'd post it as it is only 2 months ago and bugger all else seems to be going on at the moment!

Hi. first look in this year. (Happy one to you all!)

Kim.
When we went to Marchwood last September it was said that Greenseal was not totally dead, it still had potential and some development was continuing, but it was not in the forefront of their plans in present form. Or words to that effect.
Your find above seems to support this.

Nooooo Tony, not the old Greenseal carrot again, it'll only get me dreaming of the yacht in the caribbean that never materialised! ;o)

Oh, Happy New Year!

Greenseal !!!! Is it working ???
Is it still Asda, or has Wal Mart taken over.
They got Greenseal working everybody......Yahhhhooooooooooo
We'r in the moneeeeeeeey.............we'r in the moneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyy.

Pass the pills somebody please!

pills?????????
Champers mate

:o) If only eh?!!

The problem with the current sp is because it is in line with current expectations, What the dickens does it mean and when were they last produced.

News from the other side:-

'Stanelco confident of redefined strategy'

By John Whitehead

Posted 25 February 2009 11:47 am GMT

Biopolymer and RF equipment maker Stanelco is expected to have achieved the doubling of its bioresins business last year for which it had been on course at the half year point.

Although firm figures for the companys 2008 performance await the publication of its results and it is currently in its closed period, ceo Paul Mines is confident that it has maintained the sales rise it indicated earlier. This would mean sales of 5-6,000 tonnes of its portfolio of starch-based polymers produced from the Biotec plant in Germany, which it co-owns with Frances Sphere group.

Speaking to prw.com in London yesterday, former ICI, Courtaulds and Betts executive Mines confirmed that interest in the biopolymer field remains firm despite the economic crisis. None of our projects have been stopped or cancelled, he said, although he conceded that falling prices for oil based polymers have widened the premium for the Stanelco products.

Now approaching his second year at the helm of the Southampton-based company, Mines is pursuing a clearly defined strategy of pushing ahead with biopolymer developments and adopting a focused approach for the companys RF welding business.

Stanelco now accepts that the hype which surrounded its GreenSeal technology for sealing food trays and saw Stanelco shares soar to a 300m capitalisation, was overdone. Now, the focus is on more traditional applications for the RF technology, developed under the former STC parentage, such as lorry sidings and marquees. Furnaces for producing fibre optics from glass, where the firm is a global leader, is an additional priority.

Sales for the six months to 30 June last year totalled 7.4m compared with 3.9m for the same period in 2007 with the vat majority accounted for by the BioResins business. Miness new team includes Paul Law heading up this operation and Neil Martin in charge of the RF business.

May now be a good time to buy stock, prior to the Results out in March.

sp moving today is the phoenix rising?

Groundhog day!

To guess where the sp will end today is a pure lottery.
Any analytical method would be about as useful and accurate as sticking the tail on a donkey.
Reading the markets of late is almost impossible.
I have shares in another company that several times in the last month have been up/down as much as 15% for no apparent reason.
Reading tea leaves, shooting dice, any other random system these days to predict share prices is probable as accurate as any analytical methods.
We are all used to good/bad news moving share prices, I guess that we will just have to accept that in the current climate, share prices move just as much on a whim.
Although never easy to read, I always considered markets easier to read than women (what isn't) but they are both becoming a close run thing.
Be good when the markets get back to normality (where they ever).

expect 1p by results.
expect good results.
expect lots of selling after results
expect i'll still be holding in a years time..............................
deja vu anyone?
I'll leave the ramping to others.

I'm sure I've read that somewhere before, Tweenie.
