Biodegradation

Mycocyle Waste-to-Value Materials Using Mycelium

Mycocycle has developed an innovative technology that uses fungi for waste management and recycling. This patent-pending process enhances the natural capabilities of fungi to transform construction waste into low-carbon raw materials suitable for the built environment. Mycelium, the root structure of fungi, is naturally fire and water-resistant, insulative, durable, and lightweight—making it an ideal raw material for the building industry. Mycocycle’s lab process uses mycelium to consume and eliminate toxins from construction waste, producing environmentally safe raw building materials.

CiCLO® Biodegradable Fabrics

Sustainable textiles additive that creates biodegradable spots in the matrix of plastic by combining it with polyester and nylon at the beginning of the fiber-making process. The biodegradation process is non-toxic to marine life. Process is easy to implement in existing manufacturing. Integrity, durability, and performance of fibers are maintained. Fibers and yarns are traceable through the CiCLO® Certificate of Authenticity program. CiCLO® is only activated in conditions where biodegradation can naturally occur.
