Projectdetails

Introduction

Mushlabs is a biotech company that produces meat replacement from mushroom roots called mycelium. We have developed our proprietary fermentation technology to create mushroom biomass: a meat replacement ingredient revolutionizing plant-based alternative proteins.

Mission

Our mission is to change the way people eat by producing tastier, healthier, and more sustainable foods.

Cultivation Process

We take pieces of mycelium and cultivate them in a controlled and optimal environment. These serve as the seed for the mushroom biomass we harvest.

Feeding the Mycelium

We feed the mycelium with side streams from the agro and food industries. In large bioreactors, the mushroom mycelial cells ferment the side streams and multiply.

Biological Process

This biological process accumulates biomass rich in protein, dietary fiber, and micronutrients with a savoury flavour, which serves as the main raw ingredient for all of our products.

Product Development

With very few ingredients and little food processing, we create delicious, healthy, and sustainable everyday foods that replace meat.
