It must be a help for them with the oil price so low .. the plant based alternative products that the Italians are pushing must be increasingly uncompetitive on price at present.

I'm not a holder here but it's a bit of a no brainer as far as plastics are concerned. Adding an additive to plastics to bio degrade them should be par for the course. Just looking at plastics in the sea make it imperative that all governments make it the rule.

good find Celeritas. It is a bit of a slow process but, slowly and surely SYM are picking up squares on the chess set. Each territory that coverts brings incremental sales to SYM and those sales will come with correspondingly lower costs as economies of scale are realised.

Good luck to Wigley...can't the patient shareholders have some updates? Nothing that has been posted of late is of any great relevance, let's have facts, figures and contracts won and no more drain on resources

Well the leap appears to be due to Wigley - a banker - coming on board as a consultant. Have to say am never very excited by these consultancy arrangements but perhaps it will work.

After the tyre recycling machine i,m surprised they havent invented a boat to scoop up the plastic in the sea to recycle,
At least they may catch some fish which would be of value,

A good product but not prepaired to invest again with current management,

Puku - are you new to this company?

quite a coup being a guest speaker at the UN and also at a conference in Monaco. If the UN and EU start taking notice of oxy- bio-degradable our share price could soar.

I could not agree more with Shrout. These emerging economies are adopting oxo in large part because there is no hope for them to get in place recycling systems ( or indeed rubbish collection) before a couple of decades (in the UK really we have only started to recycle in the last decade and still only 40 odd per cent nationally and we are a rich country). So degrade is the best interim option. But, in the UK look at what we do. Variously in the last 6 months I have been in the UK (Surrey, Kent (Dover esp bad) and the Highlands) and Africa (Kenya, Zambia and South Africa). It would be nice to think that in the UK we are much better than the poorer economies but we are not. If you walk anywhere, as I try to do, the rubbish (mainly plastic) along the paths is appalling (and seems to be growing rapidly). Indeed where there are not footpaths the rubbish is not much less (implying people chuck it out of cars). It will need reeducation of, esp children, a nationwide effort to pick up the accumulated rubbish and degradability as a backstop for the litter that is not caught (which is where SYM comes in). Perhaps once the state of the economy becomes less important the issue of litter will rise up the agenda. It will become increasingly visible.

Slow process but, gradually territories abutting those with mandated use will switch over to prevent cross border contamination and as manufacturers simply adopt it across their product ranges

Unevenly - two steps forward one back it is going the oxo way - as is logical. I should imagine the oil price is now killing the starch proposition. Question is whether we will see the benefits in SYM'a results.

...meaning...?

What's the impact of cheap oil likely to be for SYM?

New Year's Eve and another miserable year from SYM.
Just in case reality has been forgotten, I remind readers of a post from one of SYM's blinkered optimists from Feb 2014 "chart is looking good on a longer term basis now. Would not be surprised to see this back at 17p+ this year & over 30p next year. I'll take that". Oh dear....get real.
Hopefully the arrival of Somerston marks the start of the departure of Deva and Laurier, whose time has demonstrably long passed, following which SYM might at least have a chance of achieving something worthwhile.
Happy New Year!!!!
