Mycology by design
We are a fungal biotechnology company, unlocking the incredible potential of the Earth’s ancient fungi. We believe these resilient fungi, having evolved over millions of years, hold the key to overcoming many of the problems our planet faces today and into the future. Our goal is simple: harness the power of fungi and create sustainable solutions to address global challenges in food, health, agriculture, and materials.
Solid science
Our company was founded on the almost century-old principles of the visionary scientist Dr. James Sinden, who pioneered the development of grain based fungal inoculants and strain development principles that remain the industry’s best practices to this day. Since then, advancements in molecular genetics, combined with our proprietary production methods and unflagging attention to quality, have allowed us to grow into the world’s leading producer of spawns, substrates and fungal secondary metabolites.
