This share is getting too low. The company could easily be mopped up by some predator or muscled rival. Especially with stirling being in the doldrums.
just how long does jam last at 72 time starts to run out ....
hmnn we see . song comes to mind ..
the klingons on the starboard side , ,,, its life James but not as we know it ....
TIME HAHA WE SEE.
Don’t worry, the jam is starting to be spooned out of the jar and onto the bread. Long term holders are about to get their rewards. Next twelve months or so will begin to deliver proper revenue growth imo.
They are laying so many foundations the building eill be as tall as the WTC - and we know what happened to that. These guys must have Doctorates in Jam tomorrow.
Never mind, 'The Hon' somebody has joined the board, must be shooting season.
BTW, I am a lth - 16 years.

I think this team are a bit behind the curve. It is not only SYM that has an additive but I believe a number of others as well eg Wells Plastics has Bactiglas. The main issue for us is that SYM gets the regulatory approvals which they were hoping to get by end of Q3. I suspect that might be a bit optimistic.
Gemlotte: Could you post the link. I've tried using what others have posted but unfounded page.
Anyone else have the link or know what the feature was called? Thanks
I'm sure they have seen, but just in case i sent the link to them
We don’t know that they haven’t .
how NO ONE from the company spots this ?!!!!! jeezzzzz
Good spot. Why not email the company to draw it to their attention and suggest they contact the BBC to correct the claim that this lot were first?
JUST LOOK AT THE LINK SOMEBODY IS TAKING THE P>>>>>S ITHOUGHT WE HAD ALREADY DONE THIS AND MORE YET WE NEVER GOT COVERAGE LIKE THIS LOT HAVE
im green to a point , if the science is proven and it WORKS , what is the issue . ? small company s can go very big , BUT the products have to work , now be SUSTAINABLE [LONGEVITY ?NO SALES?] AND DO EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN .
as for advertising ,,,, theres lots of free ways to market your product , find a BIG MOUTH , in the tabloids or politics , even a poet or a rock n roll band ,,, all press is good press...
SYM have tried to get the message out to the general public with the limited resources they have. The big problem is, ironically, the Green lobby. The Green lobby’s position is the completely unrealistic: no plastic at all. I think a great deal of this goes back to the fact that many of them have anti-capitalist Marxist-socialist views and because plastic comes from oil. They hate the big oil companies because in their mind it embodies everything they hate about capitalism. There are also the idealists who want plastic gone but cannot explain how that will work. So overall you get a position where practical solutions are batted away.
This is all happening in the West but not so much in developing economies where they are interested in practical solutions. Hence SYM’s greater success abroad.
However, I think that as with the energy crisis a good deal of this eco extremism is beginning to unravel and considerations of cost and practicality start to get the attention they deserve. There is other stuff such as chemical recycling for plastics which may indirectly help SYM in the West (another big objection to plastic is that not much of it is recycled).
considering we have a water shortage , you think sym would be on television , country file ,etc?
, Regards Defra and the large multi million pound plastic industry , they will not just fall over , get the facts and the science in the public domain , otherwise this product will not catch on . you need the people to make the change .
For those who may be unaware Michael Stephen is SYM’s commercial director and he writes a regular column in Bioplastic News. The columns mainly talk about his ongoing activities in trying to push the cause of d2w with the same issues recurring. I think gradually the battle is being won but it is a slow grind. His latest column is interesting in that he is trying to get out of DEFRA comment letters on a consultation about d2w technology and has had to get the FOI commissioner to order them to do so. I wonder what DEFRA is hiding and why.

20% down is actually quite a modest drop compared to many other shares on AIM over the same period. Disappointing yes, but the result of general market conditions methinks.
Share price nearly 20% down from the highs of the past few months. Would like to average down but will continue to sit on my hands until the market sees some value…very disappointing considering the good news of late.
I've taken this seemingly lowly price as an opportunity to top up here.... I'm a strong believer in the power of this technology.... granted my patience is tested by the companies slowness to grow revenues .. still, this feels like it can be a big winner soon enough to me..
You are very unlikely to see any on-market buying of shares by directors as most of them have loads of options ranging from 4.5p to 12.5p which have had their expiry dates extended a few times and now expire at the end of this year. Hardly a sign of director confidence when they kept putting off buying shares even at 4.5p.
I'm still holding but don't share the confidence of some posters. Like others, I'll believe it when I see some hard numbers.
I have been in this share for a few years myself and am comfortable that the ‘jam’ will arrive within a reasonable timeframe that suits my investment objectives.
Ctw2014 be careful of the "jam tomorrow" mantra!!!
I have been in this share for about 2 years and am still a fan of its products/potential. This year certainly seems to have many more realistic monetisation announcements but as I keep saying re this share (sorry) the lack of director buying on what seems a VERY VERY cheap share price considering the announcements they are making has stopped me from topping up.
Announcements VERY RARELY come with any hard figures (most frustratingly with the bread packaging contract which should be a game changer).
Me and MANY MANY on here who have held for longer have yet to see the jam!!!!
Good to see SYM promoting the company via outlets such as a proactive. Word needs to get out there about what a promising little company this is. Still very much off the radar of most investors.
