                                 Trading Update


Symphony Plastic Technologies Plc ('Symphony' or the 'Group'), the degradable
plastics and waste-to-energy company, is announcing that sales for the first
quarter are expected to be below management expectations. The directors were
encouraged by the performance of the business in the fourth quarter of 2006,
however the anticipated move into profitability since then has been delayed due
to the slippage of orders in some overseas markets and the directors taking a
more cautious view on the timing of the recovery following the change in the
strategic direction of the group in 2006.


The UK market in the past has been slow to accept change to oxo-degradable
technology but there is rising interest in the concept of d2w(TM)additive
technology and products. This increase in momentum is being created by a general
desire to make changes to a low cost eco-friendly alternative without having to
change product type or supplier. Symphony is establishing good relationships
with manufacturers and suppliers and has an increasing rapport with end users.
Our current negotiations create a seamless inclusion of  d2w(TM)additive
technology within existing supply chains. Symphony's d2w(TM)additives are being
used in products that are found in some of the UK's largest grocery retailers.
These products include carrier and produce bags. Considerable development work
is ongoing in a diverse range of new products and applications.


Legislation is continually changing and evolving on a local, state and national
level in which oxo-degradable technology is being seen as a viable cost
effective environmental alternative to the management of plastic products and
waste.


As a result of these changes and with the d2w(TM)brand technology being one of
the world's most established and lowest cost environmental options we believe
that there is a likelihood that other markets will be encouraged to make similar
changes rather than banning plastics entirely.
