Mycelium is a circular and biodegradable material that is grown rather than manufactured. It is composed of the root network of mushrooms, which naturally binds organic matter into a lightweight, solid composite material that is a sustainable alternative to plastic, foam, and other non-degradable materials.

These mycelium panels are grown with substrate sourced from organic mushroom cultivation waste streams. By upcycling this locally sourced residual material, the production process requires minimal energy and avoids the use of virgin resources, resulting in a low ecological footprint.

Mycelium materials are suitable for a wide range of applications like construction components, acoustic and thermal insulation, packaging and interior design products.
