                       Symphony Plastic Technologies PLC

                        Judgment in the Court of Appeal


Symphony Plastic Technologies ('Symphony'), the degradable plastics company,
today reports that the formal handing down of the Judgment by the Court of
Appeal has taken place following the Appeal brought by EPI Environmental
Products Inc ('EPI') against the Judgment of the High Court of 21st December
2004 in favour of Symphony.

In addition to documenting the reasons for its decision (announced on 19th
December 2005) to dismiss the Appeal, the Court also considered the question of
costs. Symphony has been awarded its full costs for the Appeal which are to be
assessed against EPI on an indemnity basis. In addition, an interim award to
Symphony of £600,000 was ordered for immediate settlement from funds previously
lodged by EPI with the Court as security for Symphony's costs.

Michael Laurier, Chief Executive Officer of Symphony, said:
'The dismissal of all aspects of EPI's Appeal in December has now been clearly
reflected in the Court's decision on the award of costs to Symphony. Now that
the legal process on the central issues is largely completed we are very pleased
to be able to re-focus our attention on the opportunities facing us'.
