ABOUT MYCELIUM TEXTILES

Mycelium will change the way we make clothes forever!

Mycelium will be one of the most revolutionary inventions in recent years. 100% natural and biodegradable, mycelium can be grown into materials that are luxurious, durable, and comfortable. What’s more, its production minimizes chemicals as it leverages innovative bio-engineering practices and green chemistry.

Mycelium is a natural fiber that can be used as an alternative to plastics. By harnessing its power as technology and using it in products, we can replace the toxic plastic materials – like polyester – which accumulate in our environment.

Additionally, the process of growing mycelium is revolutionary because it allows for customization. Designers can adjust the thickness, strength, texture, flexibility, density, drape, and softness to suit their needs and create a new leather-like material that’s perfect just for them.

Product Manufacturers are Moving to Sustainable Packaging

Mycelium is a new sustainable packaging material that replaces less environmentally friendly options, such as plastic and polystyrene. It is a completely organic, farm-grown material made from the roots of a mushroom. The roots grow around a mould to form a custom structure which holds products safely and securely in transit.

Mycelium decomposes as an organic product, causing no harm to the environment. It can also be added to a home compost, ‘mulched’ into your garden or disposed of in a compostable recycling bin.

MYCELIUM THREADS for BIO-PHARMA

We are improving the current threads and fabrics in use with our antimicrobial, anti-MRSA, renewable and eco-positive threads and fabric solutions. We are working together with leading scientists and medical supply innovators to implement this technology into the broad range of potential medical applications.

BIO-THREADS FOR TEXTILE MANUFACTURING

Mycelium Spooled Threads Become THE Textile of the Future

Solutions for Textile Mills

Mycelium threads are regenerative, renewable, ethical and sustainable textiles.

The mycelium movement is creating eco-positive, cruelty-free, vegan and animal-free textiles that have the ability to clean our world in their creation.

MYCELIUM BRICK FOR CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

Development of Bio-fabricated Materials in the Construction Industry

Residential, Commercial, Infrastructure

Different mycelium densities can be grown together seamlessly, making it a natural fire-resistant material, which can replace plastics, wood, concrete and polymers easily. This material can be moulded for forms that correspond to both exteriors and interiors, in terms of façades, furniture pieces and even walls.

Mycelium building materials serves as scaffolding for “living plastic,” a white, porous, and hard substance that’s nontoxic, fireproof, and mold and water resistant. Providing an insulation value of R-3 or R-4 per inch of thickness, mycelium can be used in applications such as insulation, structural insulating panels, acoustical tiles, and building blocks. Biocomposite mycelium sheets, which are virtually VOC free, can even replace conventional particleboard. Architect Magazine 2021
