Yes,they said there are more pouches produced globally than cartons.

[redartbmud] 27/11/2023 13:55

As far as I recollect, they first experimented with pouches.

ZTF are concentrating on the beverage cartons market for now, but it is worth bearing in mind that ReZorce could equally be used for other products - e.g. pouches and trays. If it takes off, I would expect those alternatives to be developed. I can see ReZorce being spun off into a separate listed company from ZTF in time. Early days, but very promising.

[someuwin] 27/11/2023 13:31

Tetra Pak produced 200 billion (yes - billion) cartons last year all of which would require specialised recycling. So the need for an alternative is clear. Huge market for ZTF's ReZorce to go at.

50,000 (£164k) buy gone through

At this price ReZorce is in for free.Even the cautious and prudent DS stated this on a Q&A video.

Caution noted and always a sensible approach. Many a slip twixt cup and lip. I have taken the view that the potential is worth the risk as part of a balanced portfolio.

Getting close to the s*it or bust time for decisions on commercial production of juice, and other liquid, cartons.
This award must help significantly.
It could be transformational for the business, but I don't want to contemplate the downside of not pulling off the deal.

Looks like someone knew a few days before the award and placed their bets. Am I bothered. Fantastic result as must surely indicate a working and scalable product. What I've been waiting for. I'm in.

Top industry award for ReZorce® beverage cartons

27 November 2023 - Zotefoams, a world leader in cellular materials technology, is pleased to announce that ReZorce® mono-material barrier packaging has been named Best Recycled Plastic Product of the Year at the 2023 Plastics Industry Awards.

Announcing their decision at the Awards ceremony, the judges said: "This groundbreaking plastic material looks set to replace the very commonly used but difficult to recycle multi-layer barrier packaging board and presents a real opportunity for the industry to solve a long-term environmental problem with a mono-material alternative that is readily recyclable."

Currently the subject of a Joint Development Agreement with a major global player in beverage packaging, ReZorce offers advantages over traditional ("composite") beverage cartons delivering a lower carbon footprint, recyclability via standard recycling streams and is designed for the circular economy, initially by using 30% post-consumer recycled materials. Crucially, ReZorce can be processed on existing packing and filling equipment and therefore requires only minor capital investment by the retailer or packaging company wishing to adopt this disruptive technology.

David Stirling, Zotefoams Group CEO, comments, "It is particularly pleasing for the team developing ReZorce to be recognised with this award ahead of commercial trials early in 2024. At Zotefoams, our purpose is to deliver optimal material solutions for the benefit of society, reflected in the judging panel's recognition that ReZorce has the potential to solve a long-term environmental problem.

"We continue to make good progress against the milestones set out in the Joint Development Agreement, buoyed by clear market demand for a sustainable alternative material for beverage cartons."

? We're delighted that ReZorce® Circular Packaging has scooped the top honour - Best Recycled Plastic Product - at the 2023 Plastic Industry Awards.ReZorce - a fully recyclable HDPE mono-material alternative to difficult-to-recycle composite packaging - was hailed as a "game-changer" and "the first viable alternative to composite barrier packaging" by the judges.ReZorce, which will make its commercial debut in early 2024 and has been designed to be compatible with existing infrastructure, offers comparable performance to standard LPB but is easy to recycle via standard household collection.Accepting the award, Neil Court - Johnston, President of Zotefoams' Mucell Extrusion business unit, said: "I'm deeply honoured that ReZorce has been selected for the PIA's Recycled Plastic Product of the Year. With attention firmly focused on the imperative of a circular economy in packaging, the judges have acknowledged that ReZorce offers an environmentally superior alternative to the status quo – with no compromise required."As we close in on commercialisation of ReZorce in 2024, we are increasingly excited by its prospects: retailers and brand owners are recognising that composite materials will struggle to find a place in a circular future."

Been buying in here. Trials with "world-leading packager" and "a leading European retailer" starting in a few months time should spark interest.

ReZorce, a major opportunity in itself

The Group has a JDA in place with a world-leading packager of beverage cartons and in-market trials are set for early 2024 with a leading European retailer. ReZorce provides a mono- material barrier packaging for cartons and pouches that is uniquely recyclable into the same type of packaging. This fully circular solution has the potential to create outstanding shareholder value.

[geraldus] 20/11/2023 16:25

ReZorce will be at the European Sustainable Plastics Summit in Frankfurt,tomorrow and Wednesday.

[geraldus] 13/11/2023 17:55

Possibly just an incorrect midprice again,this time to the upside,exaggerating the chart.

[pcok] 13/11/2023 17:46

Looks like a leak. Possible RNS tomorrow...maybe recyclable packaging news?

[dplewis1] 13/11/2023 17:40

Skewed with a wonky UT. Sone much better than expected following the CEO news though
