My organisation
Myconom develops biodegradable composite materials using mushroom mycelium and agricultural/forestry wastes. Mycelium composites are petroleum-free, 100% home compostable and alternative to plastics, especially styrofoam used in packaging. They can be customized to meet specific requirements; such as mechanical strength, fire resistance, or thermal insulation, making them suitable for diverse industries.
