Mi Terro

Mi Terro is a venture-backed advanced material company that engineers agricultural waste into high-quality, low-cost, and scalable biomaterials to end microplastics – this is a first-of-its-kind approach. We are excited to see such a significant leap forward in our ability to manipulate nature’s most diverse and abundant building blocks. Our technologies are patented and are USDA Bio-based Certified. Mi Terro uses a selection of biopolymers and natural fibers with the aim of maximizing the use of agricultural side streams (non-food feedstock) and certified biomasses. While bio-based, Mi Terro materials do not compete with food production, thereby preventing land-use change. In contrast to conventional (bio)plastics, we do not need any harmful additives, solvents, or chemicals and have up to 80% lower CO2 emissions. Our biomaterials have superior mechanical properties, higher tensile strength, and superior impact resistance. Our biomaterials can be manufactured on existing industry machinery to provide seamless supply chain integration. We are supported by Unilever, AB InBev, SPB, Lipton, and many household industrial brands.
