Our take
A growing awareness of the damaging environmental impact of animal skin clothing is leading the fashion industry to seek alternatives. Alternatives to leather products have been designed in the past, but generally result in a compromise on quality and authenticity.
MycoWorks has created a biotech platform for fashion and luxury industries to purchase fungal-based biomaterial. Existing plant-based fabric companies such as Bolt Threads and Desserto already offer alternatives through fungal and cactus-based materials. However, MycoWorks differentiates itself from the competition by focusing on making its fabrics highly durable with no compromise on quality.
MycoWorks is currently focusing on offering its Mycelium fabric as an eco-friendly material for footwear and other clothing brands. However, they aim to scale their startup by developing materials outside of Mycelium and providing a broader range of future-proof materials.
