Know nothing about them halifax, but if it was an IPO I notice a few warnings about that they will not all perform.

dc quite right Aerobox was a new issue which tried to take on the big boys in the airline container business needless to say they ended up in their own box, plastic is more expensive than wood.

RM2 seems to have tested the market, they are in with the big boys and are without looking it up, I think a 6/7 year old company.

RM2 looks quite interesting.
Their website leaves much to be desired though!
According to the LSE, the Admissions document is available to download from their (RM2) website - I beg to differ!

DC. Those are big hitters and make this a serious new issue. I think they would fit in with my long term value portfolio.

we take our chances dl . I have done my homework, The company produces pallets already, I like the figures given, in contact as you say with big hitters. All we need know is for halifax to say he hates them, then I know they will rocket. :-))

They have a superior life to the wooden ones and are far cheaper.

The figures DC say they are slightly more expensive to produce but will make 3+ as many trips before disposal .
I used to be in the international transport business and kind of understand how the pallet exchange works.

halifax i would presume they would be competitive as they last a lot longer.. This is nothing new plastic pallets have been used for ages.
