About Plantic Technologies Ltd. 
Plantic Technologies is based in Australia, where its head office, principal 
manufacturing, and research and development facilities are located.  The company 
also has sales offices in the U.S.A., Germany and the United Kingdom employing 
approximately 56 people internationally. 
Plantic's novel polymer technology is based on the use of high-amylose 
cornstarch, a material derived from annual harvesting of specialized non- GM 
(hybrid) corn and supplied by National Starch, LLC.  The unique chemical and 
film-forming properties of this type of starch allow for development of a range 
of applications across conventional plastics markets.  Plantic materials have a 
renewable bio-content of typically 85%.  In addition to being renewably sourced, 
Plantic materials are biodegradable, home compostable, water dispersible and 
compostable to American (ASTM D6400) and European (EN 13432) standards. 
Plantic Technologies has won numerous international awards for their innovation 
in biodegradable plastics.  Plantic is listed on the London Stock Exchange (AIM) 
under the symbol 'PLNT'.  For more information visit the company's website at
