Discover how Erthos develops plant-powered plastic replacements, reducing environmental impact, & providing viable industrial solutions.


Led by Nuha Siddiqui Erthos is developing a compostable plant-based resin to substitute to serve as a drop-in replacement for petroleum-derived products in the manufacturing of single-use plastics.

Nuha spoke to erthos's mission saying "erthos is our take on the combination of earth and ethos. We are creating plant-powered alternatives for traditional plastic inputs. We aim to make these substitutes both compatible with existing infrastructure and compostable at end of life. Our product replaces polystyrene and polypropylene in single-use applications such as cutlery. We are not trying to reinvent the wheel, but we are trying to make it more sustainable."

Nuha elaborated on the company's go to market strategy saying, "We are working with large established manufacturers and aiming to launch our product next year. The end-use applications include bottle caps, food casing, and cutlery."
