ETG is a materials science parent company. We design system-aware materials. This means our materials are developed to serve the people using them, work within the systems they enter, and transition in a deliberate way when their job is done.
Our first commercial application, Ecopolymer® FlushTex Technology, brings this approach to sanitation: a material designed to provide a barrier during use, disperse after flushing, and release organic additives for plumbing treatment. Our R&D in agriculture and healthcare applies the same thinking to nutrient delivery films and temporary protective barriers.
Combining functional layers
One platform. Multiple applications.
ETG combines polymer films and fibre layers so that different parts of the material can serve different functions.
ETG can adjust the layers and how they work together depending on what the finished product needs to do during use and how it needs to behave afterward.
We define what the material needs to do for the person using it. A seat cover, for example, needs to form a barrier and hold together during use.
Where the application calls for it, we design the material to do a second job in the system it enters. FlushTex is designed to release organic additives for plumbing treatment.
We design how the material changes after use. The intended route determines whether it needs to disperse, break down, or be recovered.
Sanitation is our first commercial application. Our research in agriculture and healthcare applies the same materials platform to different uses.
Ecopolymer® FlushTex is ETG’s first commercial application of its materials platform. The material is designed to disperse when flushed, release organic additives for plumbing treatment, and biodegrade after use. LooREADY Pro uses FlushTex in flushable toilet seat covers, supplied in 100-cover dispenser refills for high-volume washrooms in commercial buildings and across aviation, rail, and other passenger transport.
ETG’s research focuses on films that carry nutrients to the planting site and release them when exposed to soil moisture. The work addresses how to control the timing of nutrient release and how the film breaks down in soil.
ETG’s research focuses on temporary protective barriers for clinical settings. The work addresses how the material holds up during patient care, how staff remove it after use, and how it fits into the facility’s waste-handling procedures.
Personal hygiene, wherever you go.
LooREADY’s individually wrapped toilet seat covers are made with Ecopolymer® Hygiene Technology, designed to form a protective barrier between the user and the seat and help prevent the spread of pathogens through surface contact.
Easy to carry for travel, work, and everyday use in shared washrooms. Available in the US and UK.
Care for people. Care for plumbing.
LooREADY Pro brings comfort and confidence to shared washrooms with flushable toilet seat covers made with Ecopolymer® FlushTex Technology. Designed to perform during use and disperse after flushing, the material incorporates organic additives for plumbing treatment.
Supplied in 100-cover dispenser refills for facility operators and distributors, with large-scale deployment in buildings, aviation, and transport in mind.
ETG has four co-founders across the United States, the United Kingdom, and China.
ETG’s first production line in China manufactures Ecopolymer® products at scale. ETG works with research, engineering, and creative partners across countries to develop materials, build the production process, and bring products to market.
