World champion athlete Sally Pearson has been appointed as an ambassador for snack company Slim Secrets.

The Slim Secrets range is positioned as "rich in nutrients and ideal snacks for athletes between training sessions", according to founder and CEO Sharon Thurin.

“One of our brand’s goals is to emphasise the importance of smart snacking, and Sally is perfect to help us do that,” she said.

The partnership is part of the brand’s strategy to connect with strong female role models.

“Sally is recognised by Australians as a talented and dedicated role model who has risen to the top in her career," Thurin said.

The business also signed tennis great Angelique Kerber, pop star Avril Lavigne, and Bachelorette Sophie Monk in 2017.

The ACCC has instituted court proceedings against Clorox Australia, owner of GLAD-branded kitchen and garbage bags, over alleged false claims that bags were partly made of recycled 'ocean plastic'.

In news that is disappointing but not surprising given the recent reports on the unfolding Qenos saga, the new owner of Qenos has placed the company into voluntary administration. The closure of the Qenos Botany facility has also been confirmed.

An agreement struck between Cleanaway and Viva Energy will see the two companies undertake a prefeasibility assessment of a circular solution for soft plastics and other hard-to-recycle plastics.
