Pallatrax is proud to announce that owners Simon and Tini Pomeroy attended the Houses of Parliament, London on the 16^th November for the prestigious global Green Apple Awards ceremony in recognition of international environmental best practice.

Held on the Houses of Parliament’s magnificent terrace overlooking the River Thames, companies from all over the world, as far away as Korea and Brazil, were in attendance to receive acknowledgment for developing products and inventions sympathetic to the world wide environment.

Though attendees knew they were to be honoured with an award, only at the event were they informed of the level of award in their specific category: Bronze, Silver or Gold.

Pallatrax’s patented natural Stonze fishing weights had been entered into the Sports and Leisure category, being recognised as a product with a low carbon footprint. Though there was serious competition from other companies with incredible initiatives, Pallatrax and their Stonze fishing weights were selected to be the Gold winners.

Pallatrax’s MD, Simon Pomeroy told us: “Though some within the angling industry are yet to fully appreciate such a simple yet effective concept as Stonze this is absolute proof that our natural weights are now recognised on a serious and international scale. Stonze have now been accepted across the world for their real value as a genuine angling tool designed to assist the angler to catch more fish whether it be sea, game or coarse, as well as being environmentally sound unlike lead weights made from a toxic material with a poor carbon footprint."

We at TC pass our sincere congratulations to Pallatrax – your dedication to the Stonze is beginning to bear fruit, almost literally.
