Constar seemed superficially interesting to me based on this MonOxbar technology even though they are a PET plastic bottler, but one glance at their 10K raised many too many red flags for me, including:

34% of sales dependent on one customer, Pepsi, with contract ending Dec. '08

environmental litigation in Netherlands

cross licences granted to competitors including Rexam AB, which owns several patents relating to oxygen-scavenging technology

a stock price that has underperformed the averages and its industry for years
