Ecovative Design LLC is a U.S. biomaterials company that grows mycelium (fungal root networks) into compostable materials used as alternatives to petroleum-based foams and plastics. It is known for mycelium-grown protective packaging and a broader mycelium materials platform for foams, hides, and custom molded forms.
Materials platforms
Ecovative’s MycoComposite™ combines mycelium with agricultural byproducts to create rigid, insulating packaging forms that can be home composted. The company also develops pure-mycelium materials (AirMycelium platform) including MycoFlex™ foams and Forager™ Hides for leather-like applications.
Commercial offerings
Offerings include standardized and custom protective packaging (e.g., breakaway corners, coolers/thermal shippers) plus bulk materials and “grow-it-yourself” kits for prototyping, alongside custom solutions and technical support for brands.
