From: Colgate-Palmolive Oral Care Consumer Affairs To: Adrian Rixon Subject: Re: 0022292B Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2002 16:02:35 +0100 Subject: Your recent e-mail to Colgate Dear Mr Rixon Thank you for contacting us with your question. Your interest in our Company and our products is greatly appreciated. We are happy to have the opportunity to assist you. In common with other manufacturers, Colgate-Palmolive is concerned about the environment. As a matter of corporate policy, we have included the comment, "please dispose of packet and gum carefully" alongside the picture of a person putting litter in a bin on all our Colgate Dental Gum packets. We advise our consumers to dispose of the packet and the used gum in a responsible manner either by placing these items in a dustbin or wastebin. We appreciate you taking the time to contact us. Yours sincerely Patricia O'Shea Consumer Services Representative 0022292B [lots more blank lines deleted - ed.] ///line ///f1///fs16/// Colgate-Palmolive (U.K.) Ltd Guildford Business Park, Middleton Road, Guildford, Surrey, GU2 8JZ Registered in England No. 178909
