PlantSwitch is an environmental services company based in Sanford, North Carolina. It converts agricultural residues into a plant-based resin that can be used to manufacture a broad range of plastic products. The material is described as a drop-in replacement for petroleum-based plastics, aiming to reduce reliance on fossil polymers and minimize waste. The company operates with a relatively small team.

In its target market, PlantSwitch serves business customers seeking sustainable packaging and product components, including applications in food-service contexts. A recent development is a partnership with Taylor Farms to replace single-use plastic forks in its deli products with PlantSwitch's plant-based alternatives. The business works within the bioplastics manufacturing segment of the environmental services industry, turning agricultural residues into compostable pellets and expanding its Sanford footprint with a 52,000-square-foot facility opened in 2023 to increase production capacity.
