The below is yet again more words from our no/little action government. But it could be another push for the greener re-cycling campaigners.

Morning all.
Thought that you might be interested to know that a large supermarket is starting to use Biotec's biodegrable trays for some of its fruit packaging with a view to expanding it out to all fresh products - including all types of meat and dairy.
They are also running tests right now on RF sealing of their fresh produce packaging and I assume that if they are successful - and there is no reason to doubt that they will be after ASDA's trials - then they will announce a contract with SEO as soon as the exclusive period is over in April next year.
How do I know? I teach yoga to two people who work in the head office of this supermarket chain in fresh produce managing departments.
The use of the biodegradable trays is starting next week so it will be in the public demain. So check it out and see if you can spot the change.
THIS IS NOT A RAMP BUT THE GOSPEL TRUTH

Buys 6 : 1 and still it falls. What's the betting on a very lage buy showing at the end of the day?. At a very nice price of course.

Oily, thanks for that info, when do you think we might hear of this officially ?

A further thought on this news.
If one supermarket is converting and conducting trials with the RF sealing, then you can bet life (house) on the fact that they will all be at it.
I think that we might get a veritable serialisation of announcements early next year. And if its happening here, the other markets abroad will be doing the same.

Maybe at the EGM next week re the use of trays for the fruit packaging. And thinking about it, they may also announce that they are conducting trials with one or more supermarkets on Greenseal's RF - unless they decide to wait until it has been successful.

Oilywag, How does all this square with Asda's exclusivity agreement?
I am compiling a list of questions for the EGM on Tuesday. Anyone who cannot get there and wants a particular topic covering, including the obvious one of how soon for an overseas order, let me know and I'll do my best

I have purposely avoided mentioning the name of the supermarket because the information is not yet in the public domain.
However, they will have their fruit packed in biodegradable trays next week and then it will be safe to let you know the name, probably on Wednesday next week.

Who knows, SEO may make an announcement at the EGM that they are in trials both for the trays and Greenseal's RF sealing next week.
But to re-iterate the point I think I made earlier, I am sure that SEO are engaged in these activities whilst the exclusivity is ongoing with ASDA, just as long as they do not "roll out" until after this period.
Perhaps, you might want to ask them at the EGM to confirm that they conducting trials with other supermarkets' suppliers whilst the ASDA exclusivity is ongoing.

Do I take that as a positive move then - that the MM's are short of stock - in readiness for the EGM ???

This cannot be more than boredom with lack of news having been the case for too long, particularly from the States, with all of those trained retro fit engineers meant to be in place to get a rapid start to the roll-out there.
Tuesday's EGM had better be special. If the Board expects a 10 minute wonder that would not be a good move on their part. The only consolation is that other stocks with good stories also seem to be weakening so a bounce back is virtually assured when newsflow resumes.

Hi All,
2,000,000 WT buy at the end, and a 2,000,000 X trade right before it ????
Someone wanted 2m shares at a good price before the EGM, and they may have caused part of the drop, by wanting the stock below a certain price (19p ?)
Only two days to get in or back in before the EGM, only one way the price is going, and thats back above 20p ....
Cheers,
PM
