Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segmented, Significant Customer Information and Economic Dependency | 17. Segmented, 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 blanket which saves energy and water by inhibiting evaporation from the pool surface, and (ii) food-safe powdered form of the active ingredient within the liquid blanket and which is designed to be used in still or slow moving drinking water sources. (b) Biodegradable polymers and chemical additives used within the petroleum, chemical, utility and mining industries to prevent corrosion and scaling in water piping (as shown under the column heading “TPA” below). These chemical additives can also be used in laundry and dish detergents, as well as in products to reduce levels of insecticides, herbicides and fungicides. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies. The Company evaluates performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes, not including nonrecurring gains and losses and foreign exchange gains and losses. 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. Three months ended September 30, 2019:
