be thankful it's not dead in the water...at least we baboons have a chance....god knows when of getting a bit of cash back. At least they appear to be trying, cheers fred, and raspberry to cynic...:))

baboons have a chance of what? ..... chewing their nuts?

If they avoid chewing our nuts that will be a bonus!

where did you get yours from?

Tescos!

buy one, get one free?

Better than that - reduced cos at sell by date!

sounds like me!

think your well past that cynic.... your in the skip out back !!!lol

knew someone would pick up that trailed coat!

Cynic you really are bad
But,every little helps!!!!

just got in, thought i'd have a peak to see whats going on today. just looking at chart in header, nothing more, that sure looks like an up day on massive volume to me(volume being relative) thats usually bullish. a good rally from here wouldnt surprise me.
but can it get back above that blackline? wouldnt surprise me based on that volume.
dont forget, "if i can get out at such and such a level i'lll be happy" if it gets there and you dont, get out that is, then might i suggest you at least put in a sell stop so you wont end up unhappy yet again. follow it up, but dont let it rinse you once again, and please dont average down. just my opinion as always. please all dyor.
hmm! just noticed open price appears to be same as closing price so maybe not so bullish as i originally thought, pays to do homework.i'm off to check high volume on candles just to see what they have to say or suggest.maybe it's bearish price movement on good news? so i do hope no one averaged down on the good news. could be wrong of course.
anyway good luck to you all.
regards
jkd

delayed reaction...watch it go monday

Very rarely visit this thread now, due to Cynic (who I squelched months ago) and the fact that some posters still reply to him, meaning good relevant posts become buried in the dross.
Will try again in another few months, hoping everyone will ignore Cynic, but not holding my breath. Shame as Stanelco look to be finally (but very slowly) turning things round, and this thread could become interesting and worth reading yet again.

Regards to all, except of course !!!!!

Cynic over ripe and squelched.....hehheheheheh what ever next.

i'm so deeply hurt by that remark

I'm sure you are not, Cynic - for if you are already squelched, you won't feel the pain!

i always thought BB was my fwend .... deceived yet again

can't see how this company can fail..now producing the raw material in China and have set up sales there and in India...come on its a no brainer..

Bioplastics In the Bag?
By healthyinsites
By Thomas Kostigen, MarketWatch

Want to profit off the environment in a good way? Invest in bioplastics. At least that can be the take away from new data from the European Bioplastics Association. In a new report it says a million tons of bioplastics will replace traditional petroleum-based plastic products by 2011.

Combine that with the antiplastics movement raging around the world and you have the makings for another product to step in and take plastics place.

One of the most prevalent chemicals used in plastics is petroleum. When the word plastics was famously uttered in the film The Graduate, oil was trading at just over $2 per barrel. Obviously now the economics have changed.

Moreover, plastics dont biodegrade for hundreds of years; they just get smaller and smaller. With billions and billion of pounds of plastics produced per year, the waste problem adds up. For example, if we just refilled one of the 80 or so million plastic water bottles that we use in the United States per day, wed save a billion pounds of plastics from entering landfills per year.

China is attacking the plastics problem by phasing out free plastic bags. Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the Philippines, Taiwan and the United Kingdom also have plans to eliminate them. California is trying. Whole Foods already eliminated plastic bags as an option at the checkout counter last Earth Day.

With more than one trillion plastic bags produced annually the opportunity for a replacement is huge.

London-based Climate Change Corp. reports: The price of plastic resins like polypropylene (widely used in textiles, and eating and drinking utensils) has risen as much as 45%, according to the Plastics Exchange in Chicago. This is driving demand for renewable alternatives to fossil-based plastics, promising to deliver the critical mass to the bioplastics market that, until now, has been missing.

Adding to the higher costs of plastics are new regulations. The European Commission Landfill Directive requires a diversion of 65% of organic waste away from landfills between now and 2016. Domestically, towns and states are taking up the issue. For example, the Los Angeles City Council has voted to ban plastic bags by 2010 citywide if the state fails to impose a 25-cent surcharge on shoppers who request plastic over paper at the checkout counter.

Without a trace
Climate Change Corp. notes, that, the idea behind bioplastic is that you could fill up a bioplastic bag with food waste and throw other bioplastic products like drinks bottles, disposable plates and cutlery in a composter and within three months in theory there would be no trace.

Cool
Biodegradable plastics are made largely from dairy and corn. Whereas synthetic plastics can remain in landfills for hundreds of years, biodegradable plastics can break down and degrade in as little as 90 days.

The plastics industry is one of the largest manufacturing industries in the U.S., accounting for about $350 billion in goods alone, according to the trade group the Society of Plastics Industry. So it isnt taking these jabs lying down. It has launched a Web site, www.savetheplasticbag.com, that is chock full of pro-plastics information. Its main rebuttal to all the plastics charges is that plastics industry provides jobs. Nix plastic bags, lose jobs.

85% of plastic bags used in the United States are manufactured in the United States. Taxing or banning plastic carryout bags will result in the direct loss of approximately 4,000 American jobs. In addition, there will be thousands of resin and distribution company job losses. Destroying an American manufacturing industry based on myths and misinformation is irresponsible, absurd, and tragic, it blasts across its home page.

Clearly the plastics industry is concerned about its future.

As petroleum prices rise and alternatives gain acceptance there will be a wide opening for manufacturers to produce sustainable and biodegradable products. You could even say if the trend keeps up, bioplastics technology has it in the bag.

Production of just one million tonnes of bioplastic would reduce greenhouse gas emissions by FOUR millions tonnes a year, this is why bioplastics are booming, and its why we should all change to bioplastics wherever it is practical to do so. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions will help reverse the climate change that is responsible for many crop failures, thus increasing the amount of food available in the world.

Forget degradable and oxo-degradable plastics, they are made from ordinary high CO2 generating plastic, the fact they might biodegrade is irrelevant as they have already done their damage by then, by increasing CO2 levels by a factor of at least double their own weight.

Bioplastics use as little as 25% of the energy used in making plastic.

Many bioplastics are compostable at home, the best ones for this are potato starch and blends of potato and corn starch, these are available from Stanelco in the UK, http://www.stanelcoplc.com

Waste and carrier bags made in the UK from this Bioplastic are available from Comp-Bio Products at http://www.comp-bio.co.uk or made in Canada by Indaco Manufacturing at http://www.indaco.ca or in several EU countries by Sphere S.A at http://www.sphere.eu or Australia/N.Z via BioPak at http://www.biopak.com.au or in the Middle East via Isracaps at http://www.isracaps.com

Read the FAQ on biopastics, these are the facts not the hype, rumour, or old wives tales about Bioplastic

You can invest in Stanelco PLC, they are listed on the London Stock Exchange, ticker SEO (or LSE:SEO)

Itll take a while before bioplastics can rival petrol-based plastics in price but its a growing industry and a lot of stones remained unturned
