Active Research

Developing the Next Generation of Living Materials

Fungarium engineers fungal-based systems from the concepts of sensing, adapting and performing. Merging biology, material science, and machine learning within a controlled living laboratory.

The Limits of Mycelium Bio-Composites

We engineer mycelium bio-composites (MyBCs) materials from patented methods that allow for precise control over density, tensile strength, and thermal resistance. Our focus is to use agricultural byproducts to grow high-performance, sustainable materials that can replace energy-intensive synthetics. Such as Polystyrene, Polyurethane, and Polyethylene.

MyBC: Mycelium Bio-Composites

Our primes. Adapted to Local Agriculture, Tunable density, remarkable tensile strength, and innate thermal resistance, grown to precise dimensional tolerances.

We start from your material, apply our research using patented data-driven and sensing methodology**, and deliver a spectrum of possibilities. Together with our partners, we can introduce them as construction materials, packaging, and consumer products at scale.

Devices

MycoBrain Interphase

Device capable of detecting mycelium electric signals as well as to stimulate fungal mycelia.

Platform 03

Material Design

We follow processes and methodologies to build a consistent data-focused picture of the MyBC material potential.

Circular Economy Pillars

Strategic Partnerships

Two linked companies that connect biomass sourcing, mycelium-based material design, and shared ownership across the circular material stack.
