Diamant Art Corporation Continues to Research the Development of Compostable and Bottled Water Bio Alternatives to Its
TORONTO, Aug 22 (MARKET WIRE) --
Diamant Corporation (OTCBB: DIAAF) is pleased to announce that
governmental legislation, regarding the banning of plastic Water bottles,
is being considered by Mayor David Miller of Toronto; the Toronto council
may as early as this fall decide on banning bottled water. Toronto's
waste reduction manager has indicated that 100,000,000 bottles are
consumed in Toronto annually and only 65 % are recycled. Diamant,
situated near Toronto, has planned prior to this news to meet with a major
manufacture of bottle water in the Greater Toronto area next week to
introduce its revolutionary PET degradable additive.
The banning of plastic bags, may be passed in Red Bank Borough, New
Jersey, following recent landmark metropolises such as Los Angeles. A
public hearing is scheduled at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 25 at Borough Hall, 90
Monmouth St.
The proposed ordinance carries a $100 fine for businesses using plastic
bags that are non-recyclable, non-reusable or cannot be composted. It
would levy a $200 fine for the second offense in the same year and a $500
fine for each additional violation in the same year.
The plastic bag ban, which is continually gaining momentum nationwide, is
creating a largely growing demand for various products in different
segments. Diamant, having recently announced its availability of
compostable plastic bags, continues to explore the capability of being
able to cater to other segments of the plastics industry. Over the next
quarter, the company anticipates the ability to announce progressive
developments in the related segments which will be experiencing a
reverberating effect from the increase in awareness of global
consequences, and resulting legislation.
