As you would be aware most countries are faced with an overwhelming supply of these bags (running into hundreds of billions per year) Because many bags end up in the environment legislation is being passed in many countries to ban plastic bags or charge a levy .A better way to tackle this problem would be to use the experience of the reverse vending machines that receive bottles and cans and return the deposit to the consumer. I am looking to supply the Australian market (estimated at 5000 machines) and want to engage with a company that is capable of designing and building a reverse vending machine suitable for plastic bags. I have a patent in Australia for the plan to use a machine to receive the bags and return the deposit (not necessarily by coin) Would you be interested in establishing a working relationship to follow this project? Providing the Australian market proves to be successful I could see a huge market for the machines worldwide Please let me know and I can send you more material Yours faithfully Kim Newman Attachment none From Company: outdoorgym australia Email: plasticbagsolution@yahoo.com.au Address: 216/437 stirling highway, claremont western australia 6010, Australia Phone:61-8-93846861 Fax:61-8-93846861
