Material made of mycelium and hemp
Material made out of mycelium and hemp, that can replace synthetic materials like plastics. Mycelium is the pre-stage of a mushroom, while hemp is a waste-stream coming from companies producing clothes. The spores of mushroom are injected into the mat and in about two weeks the mycelium is spread out over the mat and the mushrooms start to sprout.
