I looked at a product page -- it's very obvious you are keyword stuffing. Don't do that.

Are tags bad? Tag clouds are, most often:

StackOverflow.com has a cool usage of tag clouds that aren't spammy.

Categories serve the same purpose as tags .. why not use them instead? Breadcrumbs are perfectly okay, and actually serve a purpose to the user. Looking at your implementation, though, your breadcrumbs would be considered keyword stuffing.

Thanks Zachary,

with regards to the breadcrumbs they are labelled exactly as the industry names, therefore good for the user, I have not added any additional keywords to the categories or product names

will definitely reduce on page keywords

You have five separate breadcrumbs for the product I'm viewing. That's the spammy part.
