Biomyc ltd is an award-winning sustainable design & innovation company that designs next-gen products from innovative materials for premium brands. We are an award-winning design and innovation company that designs next-gen products and packaging from innovative eco materials and renewables. We are experts in working with mycelium composite – a sustainable material made of mushroom roots and plants. Our favorite material is mycelium composite and we design products and packaging with it by using our custom sustainable design methodology. Our proprietary method for design and established network of manufacturing partners allow us to help companies put professionally designed, tailor-made sustainable products on the market now. We work closely with licenced production partners to ensure great manufacturability. Finally, we connect you with licensed producers from our network that can manufacture the product for you, and if you’d like, we manage the production process for you as an additional service to save you time and resources.

We provide our customers with a comprehensive plug & play biotechnology system, thus empowering them to carry out in-house mycelium fermentation. Our mission is to empower food producers to bring sustainable mycelium production in-house, effortlessly and economically. We are a multi-disciplinary and experienced team with a proven entrepreneurial track record. We’re motivated by facilitating the future of sustainable food production. As such, lots of companies are already dedicated to developing delicious and authentic meat alternatives, but with effective technology, they could go even further. Fermentation is a powerhouse of potential for the alternative protein sector and has garnered itself a reputation as a ‘game-changer.’ However, many food companies face a common challenge: they lack the affordable infrastructure and expertise needed to produce mycelial proteins in-house. We believe in a decentralised approach to sustainable food production and used this as the foundation for developing our plug and play biotechnology that allows our customers to easily ferment mycelium themselves, using low-cost proprietary bioreactors. With our groundbreaking technology, we empower businesses to take charge of their own food production, making it more accessible and reliable than ever.

We produce two types of organic materials in our own mushroom farm in The Netherlands: MyFoam® and HedelComposite, a mycelium substrate to grow your own products. Mycelium is the branching root structure of mushrooms. MyFoam® technology offers a supple and foam-like material fully grown from mycelium. A Grow-It-Yourself mycelium substrate that can be applied to create 100% biodegradable products and packaging made from the roots of fungus. Simon has more than 10 years of experience in the mushroom sector. There is a good mix between experienced managers in the mushroom sector and fresh ideas & theory from recent graduates.

Mycelia is a biotechnology company that produces your mycelium at different stages of development: mother cultures, mother spawn and spawn. Our spinoff Mycelia Academy can assist you with consultancy and training. If you are just as obsessed by the potential of fungi as we are, feel free to contact our R&D team. Our R&D department Mycovision can help you develop your products for the mushroom industry or biocontrol market. Receive updates with practical info on new strains, our free information on mycelium production, updates about the new dates of our group training and the rising of the Mycelia Online Academy launching in 2022 and the 2nd edition of the Wood Fungi Conference!
