The erthos® method

Formulation discoveryMaterial developmentProduct launch

01 Formulation discovery

Key outcome

Rapid ingredient selection and formulation insights.

01 Formulation discovery overview

Our world-class scientists harness ZYA™ to design and optimize formulations utilizing our internal database of hundreds of industry-tested ingredients and patented erthos® Ingredients developed in-house. ZYA™ predicts the capabilities and behavior of novel ingredients while generating formulations for our client's desired targets across a wide range of end applications. ZYA™ insights, ingredients, and formulations are shared transparently with our clients.

02 Material development

Key outcome

Tailored biomaterials, ready to scale.

02 Material development overview

erthos® Lab conducts rapid prototyping of novel formulations discovered through ZYA™. Our in-house experts conduct real-world testing and manufacturing compatibility trials at scale. All insights, formulations, and testing results are translated into final material samples ready for commercialization.

03 Product launch

Key outcome

Launch toolkit and ESG guidelines.

03 Product launch

We build a custom launch toolkit outlining a reporting framework and global waste management guidelines to highlight how our client's new materials meet necessary industry, SDG and ESG goals. We develop a roadmap that illustrates a comprehensive set of sustainability claims and metrics associated with the material to ensure it is well-positioned for our client's material-conscious voice.

Our approaches

The erthos® Method can be tailored to be entirely flexible based on client priorities.
