	CNN.com - U.S. costs hurt Brambles profit - Sep. 2, 2003
		Brambles, which is also listed in London, derives more than 80 percent of its revenues outside Australia, with the company's more than 200 million CHEP-brand blue pallets and containers used to cart goods around the globe.
		Brambles shares, once favoured as a growth stock, have fallen more than 50 percent since its merger with parts of Britain's GKN Plc in August 2001.
		Brambles began restructuring CHEP Europe last year after the division's performance deteriorated due to delays in new contracts, high restructuring costs, problems caused by a new pricing system, and a string of service centre fires.

		Brambles Industries is the global leader in industrial pallets - those wooden and plastic platforms and crates on which goods are transported and stored - but their potential should not be underestimated.
		Brambles is listed in Australia and London, where it is in the FTSE 100 index and its chief executive is Sir C. Chow, who held the same position at GKN.
		Brambles has invested heavily to expand Chep, and has offset this partly through the sale of non-core businesses, but the benefits of the cash spent have yet to be seen.

		LONDON (CNNfn) - Australia's Brambles Industries and Britain's GKN are in talks about merging their industrial service activities, the companies said Monday.
		Analysts said that a merger of their industrial service businesses alone wouldn't necessarily bring a lot of synergies and the companies' statement also left it unclear exactly which parts of their industrial services they were planning to merge.
		Brambles and GKN, a maker of aerospace, industrial and automotive products and owner of U.S. muffler repair firm Meineke, have long been joint venture partners in CHEP, an industrial pallet provider, and waste management company Cleanaway.

		Pre-Chow, Brambles was an old-fashioned conglomerate, with dozens of transport and logistics businesses, many of which had little relationship with other parts of the group but which provided a defensive earnings stream.
		While the future of Brambles and CHEP are now synonymous, close examination of the global pallet game suggests that the market is jumping at shadows in relation to LPR.
		Because Chow has made Brambles a far more open and transparent company than was the case under his predecessor (current Coles Myer boss John Fletcher), for the time being he is enjoying a honeymoon period with broker analysts and fund managers.
