MYCL™ Composite

by MYCL | Mycotech Lab · Indonesia · ONA1123 · Published 27 Feb 2025
About this material

MYCL™ Composite is a 100% biodegradable natural mycelium composite, sourced entirely from non-virgin agricultural biomass waste. It embodies a circular and eco-friendly approach, minimising environmental impact. The material is certified under the E0 Formaldehyde Emission Category, ensuring ultra-low emissions of formaldehyde, aldehydes, and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

In addition to its sustainability credentials, MYCL™ Composite offers excellent technical specifications. It has low thermal conductivity, measured at 0.048 W/mK—comparable to polyurethane (PU) insulation—making it a highly effective choice for thermal insulation applications. It also possesses fire-retardant properties without the need for toxic additives.

Remarkably, MYCL™ Composite can withstand a force load exceeding 1000 kg while weighing only 3 kg, achieving a strength-to-weight ratio of over 600 times. Furthermore, it provides acoustic insulation properties, enhancing its versatility for various applications.
