Mycelium is unique because it's easy to both grow and shape into different forms. At Ecovative Design in Green Island, New York, engineers, biologists, and designers are harvesting its potential ...
Czech researchers have just unveiled a revolutionary new eco-home built using mushroom roots. Samorost's insulation is made from 1,800 kg of Mycocomposite, a material derived from reishi mushrooms.
The mycelium, which extends more than 300 miles down into the earth, is excellent at taking in and breaking down hydrocarbons. That ability gives it several crucial roles in the forest ecosystem.
A new advance on this front is mycelium bricks. Mycelia are the branching filaments of fungi that make up its vegetative part. Researchers have them harnessed to create biodegradable, fire ...
Monc has developed its own sustainable mycelium packaging made from 'magical' mushrooms. Monc's new packaging harnesses the potential of agricultural waste and fungi, one of the world's oldest ...
