SCHEDULE 13D
UNDER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ACT OF 1934
Introduction
As of March 31, 2000, Sterling (as defined below) is not an indirect
beneficial owner of the Common Stock of the Issuer (as defined below) given that
it has no direct voting shareholdings of Caledonia (as defined below).
ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
This Statement relates to the common stock ($.001 par value) ("Common
Stock") of Horizon Medical Products, Inc. (the "Issuer"). The principal
executive offices of the Issuer are located at One Horizon Way, P.O. Box 627,
Manchester, GA 31816.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND
The persons filing this Statement (the "Reporting Persons"), the
persons enumerated in Instruction C of Schedule 13D (the "Additional Persons")
and, where applicable, their respective places of organization, directors,
executive officers and controlling persons, and the information in respect of
such persons, are as follows:
(A) This Statement is filed by (i) Tapir Investments (Bahamas) Ltd.
("Tapir") as the direct beneficial owner of the Common Stock previously
referenced on pages 2 through 5; (ii) Caledonia Investments plc ("Caledonia") as
an indirect beneficial owner of this Common Stock given that Caledonia is the
holder of all of the outstanding capital stock of Tapir; and (iii) The Cayzer
Trust Company Limited ("Cayzer Trust") as an indirect beneficial owner of this
Common Stock given that its direct holdings of the securities of Caledonia
represent indirect holdings of the stock of Tapir; and (iv) Sterling Industries
PLC ("Sterling") which as of March 31, 2000 is not an indirect beneficial owner
of this Common Stock given that it no longer has any direct holdings of the
voting securities of Caledonia (collectively all these entities are the
"Reporting Persons").
Tapir is the direct beneficial holder of approximately 11.18% of the
outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer. Caledonia is the holder of all of the
outstanding capital stock of Tapir. Cayzer Trust is the holder of 34.41% of the

Caledonia and, hence, Tapir. Cayzer Trust disclaims beneficial ownership of
Caledonia or Tapir.
As of March 31, 2000, Sterling ceased to be a beneficial owner of
Common Stock of the Issuer. Sterling has no direct holdings of the voting
securities of Caledonia by virtue of a public takeover initiated by Caledonia to
acquire all shares of Sterling not already owned directly by Caledonia,
following which all of the common stock of Caledonia owned by Sterling was
redesignated as deferred non-voting shares. As a result, Sterling may not be
deemed as controlling or holding, indirectly or directly, on its own or in
combination with any other entity, Caledonia or Tapir.
<PAGE>

Shirley Street, P.O. Box SS-19084, Nassau, New Providence, The Bahamas. The

(C) Certain additional information about the officers and directors of
the Reporting Persons is set forth on Schedule A hereto and is incorporated

Additional Persons, according to any of the Reporting Person's knowledge, have
been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors).
(E) During the last five years, neither any Reporting Person, nor any
of the Additional Persons, according to any of the Reporting Person's knowledge,
have been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of

judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting
or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding
any violation with respect to such laws.
(F) Tapir is a corporation organized under the laws of The Bahamas.
