Half-yearly Report

 

GREEN CHEMICALS PLC

Interim Results

For the six months ended 30 September 2009

 

green chemicals plc (the "Company"), the PLUS Markets-listed developer of "cleaner, greener", more environmentally-friendly pre-treatment and dyeing processes for natural fibres, flame retardant treatments for fabrics and hair colorant/de-colorant technologies, announces its results for the six months ended 30 September 2009.

 

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

                       

Overview

The first half of the current financial year has proved slower than anticipated in securing commercial partners or licensees for our range of proprietary fabric and paper fire retardant treatments, natural fibre pre-treatment and dyeing, and hair lightening and colouration treatments.

Our products are under review with a number of international organisations who may decide to enter negotiation for commercialisation rights.

 

Financial Review

The loss of £360,318, after financing costs, is in line with the Directors' expectations and reflects the continued investment over the period in obtaining regulatory approvals for and commercialising the Company's fabric and hair colorant/de-colorant treatments for a range of applications.

 

Prospects

I continue to be confident of further progress and perceive the period under review as one of consolidation in terms of focusing our developed technologies for external review and examination by major conglomerates in both the chemical and consumer products sectors.
