Biome continues its strategy of developing products where there is specific customer demand for bio-based or biodegradable solutions. It was noted in the July 2018 trading update that two projects in particular are advancing encouragingly through the development phase and, if successful, could lead to substantial revenues in 2019 and 2020. These projects are both with new customers. One of them has now completed its technical development phase in the USA and commercial production is expected in 2019. The second project, being developed in continental Europe, has passed an important milestone in recent weeks and work continues to support an aggressive launch timetable with the customer with commercial revenues being anticipated in 2019. Additionally, in recent weeks an initial six-month feasibility study, supported by an international consumer goods company, has been completed and discussions are underway regarding a product launch in 2020.
