Mycelium Leather

Usable Material

Grown, not made

The final sheet is a bio-based, plastic-free, biodegradable alternative — ready for conscious creation

Post processing mycelium

Post-Processing

Shaping its future

Through drying, heat treatment, pressing, and texturizing, the raw mycelium is turned into flexible, durable sheets.

 Growth Phase

Let it bloom

Within days, the mycelium weaves into thick, fluffy mats — shaped naturally by its environment and containment.

Gloved Hand Holding Mycelium Culture

Strain

WHERE IT BEGINS

We start with selected mycelium strains cultured in controlled conditions — the roots of the process.

Inoculation

Feeding the fungi


The culture is introduced to sterilized agricultural residue substrates, allowing it to grow and form a dense mycelial network.
