The challenge
Many companies are trying to become more sustainable. One of the state-of-the-art solutions in product packaging is Styrofoam. Styrofoam is made from fossil resources and is slow to biodegrade. We solve the problem of companies aiming to become more sustainable by replacing their Styrofoam packaging with a more sustainable solution.
The solution
Our solution is packaging made out of mycelium. Mycelium packaging is a fully circular and organic product. In addition to that, it is bio-degradable and significantly more carbon efficient than plastic-based materials like Styrofoam.
Mission
Our mission is to step-by-step replace plastic packaging with mycelium-based packaging and thereby reduce plastic polution as well as carbon emissions.
