12. SEGMENTED DISCLOSURE, SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER INFORMATION AND ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY

 

The Company operates in two segments:

 

(a) Energy and water conservation products (as shown under the column heading “EWCP” below), which consists of a (i) liquid swimming pool blankets which save energy and water by inhibiting evaporation from the pool surface, and (ii) food-safe powdered form of the active ingredient within the liquid blankets and which are designed to be used in still or slow moving drinking water sources.

 

(b) Biodegradable polymers, also known as TPA’s (as shown under the column heading “BCPA” below), used by the petroleum, chemical, utility and mining industries to prevent corrosion and scaling in water piping. This product can also be used in detergents to increase biodegradability and in agriculture to increase crop yields by enhancing fertilizer uptake.

 

The third product line is nitrogen conservation products used for the agriculture industry. These products decrease the loss of nitrogen fertilizer after initial application and allows less fertilizer to be used. These products are made and sold by the Company’s TPA division.

 

The Company also manufactures food grade products that are made and sold by the TPA division.

 

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different, but synergistic products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different technology and marketing strategies. The economic factors that impact the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows vary among the Company’s operating segments and the geographical regions in which they operate. This operating segment structure is used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), who has been determined to be the Chief Executive Officer, to make key operating decisions and assess performance of the Company. The CODM evaluates segment operating performance, and makes resource allocation and performance evaluation decisions, based on gross profit and net operating income.
