The latest addition is the d2Detector - an Anti-Counterfeiting and Quality Control device.\n \nEssentially this technology provides brand-owners of established products with an effective and low-cost way to protect their brand. The d2Detector is a hand held scanner which can detect d2w additive in plastic packaging within 60 seconds - enabling users to ensure that the correct level of the additive has been used and that the packaging is genuinely biodegradable.\n \nThere is also a much wider benefit for companies who wish to guard against counterfeiting of their products. By sealing the products in d2w plastic, and using the d2Detector companies will be able to tell instantly whether their products are likely to have been counterfeited.\n \nThe d2Detector was unveiled this month at the 10th Arab International Plastics & Rubber Industry Trade Show & Conference in Dubai, The use of Oxo-biodegradable plastic technology is now compulsory in the UAE. \n \nSymphony, through their Distributor, Eco-Polymers, is a Government-authorised Oxo-biodegradable additive supplier in the UAE. \n \nMichael Laurier, CEO of Symphony, commented, \"The d2Detector is an important addition to our portfolio and we were delighted to launch it in Dubai in the presence of the Environment Minister. The UAE Government is supportive of Oxo-biodegradable plastic technology - recognising in legislation the need to protect the environment by ensuring that all short-life plastic products are Oxo-biodegradable.\n \n\"Symphony was the first company to obtain certification to supply oxo-biodegradable technology in the UAE after a long period of due-diligence, and we look forward to growing our presence in the region.\"\n \nContacts\n \n\n\n\n\nSymphony \n\n\nTel: 020 8207 5900\n\n\n\n\nMichael Laurier, CEO\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIan Bristow, FD\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAllenby Capital Limited\n\n\nTel...
