for those who are enthu .. this link gives the interview of  Mark Verbruggen, president and CEO of NatureWorks  and  Nicole Cardi, Cereplast's vice president about the gowth of bioplastic industries. 


@dhruv this link says that Cereplast is a pioneer in bioplastics field and never mentioned abut their loses. 


Cereplast have made even durable products such as stool (the link says )...  We can check their other products and the profits they made in the market .

Cereplast had a $1.8 million net loss or $0.12 per share in Q1 2011 as compared to a $1.7 million net loss in Q1 2010 or $0.17 per share. Cereplast's CFO, Heather Sheehan, said that gross margins will gradually improve throughout the year and the company expects it to be over 20% by the end of the year 2011.
