Materials

The global myco-materials industry is rapidly emerging as a sustainable alternative to traditional materials. Myco-materials, grown with fungi, offer numerous benefits, including biodegradability, low environmental impact, and the ability to be produced using agricultural waste.

GRX strains

Our GRX range of high performance Ganoderma strains allows clients to grow high yielding mycelium crops with consistent results. Strain selection screens for highly vigorous growing performance which helps minimise unwanted contamination. The amount of fungal inoculum used also impacts the growth rate and density of the mycelium network, while the time allowed for the mycelium to colonise the substrate will affect the strength and structure of the finished product.

 

Sylvan offers various sub-species of Ganoderma as well as Pleurotus, each of which may give different results. Come talk to our mycologists for guidance.

Sterile substrates

Using sterile substrates in mycelium cultivation offers numerous advantages for optimal growth and yields. Sterilization prevents contamination by eliminating harmful microorganisms, allowing mycelium to grow without competition. This promotes robust growth and maximizes mushroom quality and yield. Additionally, a sterile environment ensures consistency, reducing crop failure risks and providing reliable outcomes. Choose sterile substrates for an efficient, contamination-free cultivation process.

 

Sylvan offers co-development of optimized substrate recipes tailored to your needs, using our patented sterilization technology. Talk to us about the possibilities.
