Biome Technologies plc

("Biome", the "Group" or the "Company")

Biome wins further funding for its biodegradable tree shelter project

 

Biome's Bioplastics division ( www.biomebioplastics.com ) announces that it has secured £248,000 via a further funding contract to complete the development phase and reach commercial production of its biodegradable tree shelter project. This follows the Company's successful completion of an initial feasibility study to develop and test a new generation of biodegradable tree shelters to be made from the Company's novel bioplastics.

This additional funding has come from the Government-backed Innovate UK agency as part of the Sustainable Innovation Fund (SBRI Phase 2) and will support a significant increase in project activity and facilitate further extensive laboratory testing of materials and UK-wide field trials with potential end-customers for the novel biodegradable tree shelters.

In the UK, around 45 million trees are planted each year, most of those using non-biodegradable tree shelters for protection, with an estimated 2,500 tons of persistent plastics ending up annually in the natural environment after use. Plans to significantly increase tree planting as part of the UK's drive to mitigate climate change will exacerbate these problems. This project aims to curb such unnecessary levels of plastic pollution with a product that biodegrades in-situ after use.

The project continues in close partnership with Suregreen, a leading manufacturer of tree shelters, whose team has broad experience in the manufacture and sales of such products. Suregreen will involve its forestry customers in product assessment of the biodegradable tree shelters.

Paul Mines, Biome Technologies' Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"This additional funding will help accelerate both the laboratory and 'real-world' testing of this exciting new product, moving it a step closer to large scale commercialisation."

Investors can find more details on this project's scientific approach and its future path to prospective commercialisation in a short video on the Bioplastics division's website: https://biomebioplastics.com/tree-shelter/ .

Tracsis PLC

Tracsis plc

("Tracsis" or "the Group")

 

North American Remote Condition Monitoring Contract Win

 

Tracsis, a leading provider of software, hardware, data analytics/GIS and services for the rail, traffic data and wider transport industries, is pleased to announce it has been awarded new contracts for the supply of Remote Conditioning Monitoring ('RCM') Hardware and Software to a major North American transit agency.

 

This win represents a strategically important milestone for Tracsis, as North America is an important future growth market for our Rail Technology & Services division.

 

The first contract win is the result of the successful delivery during 2020 of a Proof of Concept which was followed by an RCM equipment rollout across an initial four sites monitoring c.40 Switch machines. This new contract win includes the enterprise-wide installation of our Centrix data acquisition software platform and the extension to a further 10 sites of RCM equipment which will monitor an additional c.140 Switch machines.  Further phases of work across multiple additional sites could follow dependent upon the successful ongoing roll-out of this program of work.

 

The second contract win for the same client is to again supply switch monitoring via our hardware and Centrix platform for a further c.45 Switch machines through a strategic Signalling renewal and station upgrade project.

 

The combination of these two contracts will combine to give RCM for over 200 Switch machines for this client.

 

These new contract wins are expected to be delivered during the remainder of this financial year.

 

Chris Barnes, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

 

"MPEC Technology has a very strong market position in the UK rail industry as a leading supplier of RCM software and hardware. A key strategic objective of the Tracsis Group is to expand this business into North America and these new contract wins with a major transit agency are an important further step in building momentum towards this goal."

Trakm8 Holdings PLC

25 February 2021

 

 

Trakm8 Holdings plc

('Trakm8' or the 'Group')

 

Contract Award and Trading Update

 

Trakm8 Holdings plc (AIM:TRAK), a leading telematics and data supplier to global markets, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a long term contract to deploy over a 1,000 RH600 integrated telematics and cameras systems to The Parts Alliance Group.

 

Trakm8 will supply the full fleet management and driver behaviour solutions based on Insight, the Group's leading analytics and data platform.

 

 

Outlook

Revenue in the second half will be approximately 15% up on the first half, despite the second and third Covid-19 lock-downs which have had a significant adverse effect on our Insurance customers as a result of the temporary suspension of driving tests.  Full year revenue is expected to be approximately 20% lower than FY20, with Covid-19 compromising what would otherwise have been a year of growth.  This will result in a modest adjusted loss before tax broadly similar to last year.

 

Whilst disappointed that Covid-19 has pushed back the return to material growth by 12 months, the Directors are confident that the Group is well positioned to return to growth driven by its expanding Insurance customer base and continually improving Fleet sales team performance.
