About Us

Earthtwine LP was formed in 2024 when the owners of Extrutec & the owners of Tapex Horticulture group formed the joint venture partnership. Driven by their mutual passion for making a positive difference to the environment, the partnership is on a mission to continue developing and manufacturing innovative solutions for the horticultural and agri sectors to support farmers and growers.

Joe Wiid has been working on and developing world leading design formulas and novel production methods in the biopolymer industry for a number of years. Through the Joint Venture entity, Earthtwine LP has in place a range of bio solutions for twines and auxiliary products across many segments; ultimately replacing the existing traditional products made from conventional plastics. With a growing range of compostable and soil degradable solutions, we ensure our customers meet the challenges for environmentally suitable products into the future.
The business and manufacturing centre of excellence is based at Marsden Point on New Zealand’s North Island.
