I agree it does not like a professional marketing method but that is in effect what the Co is doing , getting their Co brand marketed So we need Co like symphony's technology and other technologies out there to reduce the impact of plastic . I am not sure this is the answer as it means plastic is still floating around to biodegrade We need to replace plastic entirely with a recyclable one which can be used on a mass scale .I mean plastic is used in SO many things vital for lifeThat seems a long time away yet The recent interview regarding the EU legislation is very promising for the Co. Also the recent investment is difficult to ignore . There has to be some positive developments coming in the near future which has changed my mind that there maybe a step change in contracts and revenues coming

Last year they issued a Trading & Operations Update on 06/08/2018




Interim Results were issued 30/08/2018



Good news is seldom slow to be released, especially with a lifestyle company such as SYM which over the years has had very little true good news & very much jam tomorrow.

No trading update or results yet

when r these due?

jailbird,

Let me try to clear your confusion.

The products SYM sell do not work, or if they do 'work', they make the problem worse, not better.

Don't you think if they did work SYM would be selling hundreds of £millions of this stuff? Instead, after trying to get this off the ground for over 15 years they have the turnover of a suburban fish & chip shop. Look back at the dismal history of SYM, it exists to pay Laurier et al. No other reason.

pugThe second article is old news from last year It has been superseded by news a few months ago which is positive nowThe other article looks more damning , and I frankly am confused .We know lobbyists are doing their best to discredit biodegradablesAlso what is the replacement or solution of the large scale plastic problem .. anything that can endure plastic degraded faster than today can only be a good thing because a permanent solution to. Address this globally is not around anytime soon .

robertnash2 - Thanks for that - Having visited Wells

They seem to be well ahead of SET both technically and profitwise -

Jury (imo) is still out on bio-degradeability of plastic to inert residuals after possible timeline through "micro-plastics"

Wells Plastics manufacture their own OXO additives in addition to additives for the plastics industry. They are a well run company consistently showing profits 2018 shows t/o of £13m net profit £1.963m and directors emoluments of £342k. A very well run company compared to SET Plc. It will be interesting to see what the half year figures will show and what will happen when Vincel's funds run dry.

See also the full REPORT FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCILon the impact of the use of oxo-degradable plastic, including oxo-degradable plastic carrier bags, on the environment - Not good news (imo)

The French do not seem to be too happy with bio-degradeable plastics -

Vincel Industrial Holdings now have a £659k loss on their investment a third gone up in smoke since July 2019 not very impressive and no financial updates! Are they that bad?

[exile] 29/8/2019 22:04

swiss paul… had to read it again twice and it seems that you are correct... Doh !

[swiss paul] 23/8/2019 21:00

exile you need to read:
biodegradable packaging programme with baking company Grupo Bimbo has made progress.

Its a bluff - go back and read it and tell me where it says we are even selling to Bimbo.

They will send an RNS out even when they go to teh loo - chancers
