Earth Day is April 22, a day when we consider the changes we can make as individuals and as a community. Reducing the use of plastics is something we can all do better, and Toronto-based erthos is leading the way with its custom-designed biomaterials that can replace plastics in everything from a product’s packaging to the product itself.
“Recyclable plastic is not the solution because it still creates more problems down the line. Our mission is to eliminate plastic altogether,” says Jillian Watson, head of growth at erthos.
