Solum replaces these chemical additives, one-to-one, with functional equivalents from plants. These additives exist not only in shoe sole compounds, but also in many other consumer goods we use within our daily lives.

By adding Verdura to these recipes, effectively replacing those toxic additives, we can improve the chemical composition for people and planet.

Plastics are more than polymers. They’re a complex cocktail of chemical additives.
