Ecovative Design sees the world very clearly. They are
aware of the environmental issues that we face in the
world currently as plastic is a huge issue. A lot of the
pollution we have today is due to plastic as its not
something that will disappear.
Ecovative Design uses mycelium, the root structure of
mushrooms to create sustainable products out of
mushrooms, which helps reduce plastic waste and
animal slaughter. Mycelium is compostable and is mixed
with other plant materials to create various products.
They create products such as sustainable packaging,
skin care, furniture and even plant based meats.
