MONTREAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE/ October 13, 2020 / Loop Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:LOOP) (the 'Company' or 'Loop'), a leading sustainable plastics technology innovator, today commented on the report published by Hindenburg Research this morning, which contained factual inaccuracies.
Per the Hindenburg report, Hindenburg holds a short position in Loop Industries stock. Hindenburg Research has not engaged with Loop directly nor does Loop Industries believe Hindenburg Research has done the required due diligence for this report. The claims it makes are either unfounded, incorrect, or based on the first iteration of Loop's technology, known as Gen 1, which was in use between 2014 and 2017. In 2017, Loop reinvented its process and developed its Gen 2 technology, which is at the core of Loop's commercialization projects.
Loop's focus remains on commercializing its technology to meet growing global demand for infinitely recyclable PET plastic and polyester fiber made from 100% recycled content.
