🍄 Mycelium is now HERE at Veshin Factory 🏭 Delighted to announce today Veshin Factory is now in collaboration with Ecovative - the mycelium technology company to scale & comercialise its mycelium alternative leather Forager. Mycelium over the last couple of the years has created a lot of excitement. However in recent times with the significant investments into this material category it has left the industry turning its head wondering where it is. I for one questioned will Veshin Factory ever be able to dive into a deeper collaboration with what was such an exciting next generation material category. I continued to monitor the space but had to remain patient. It was not until at this years Biofabricate event in Paris where Gavin McIntyre presented Ecovative - the mycelium technology company in more detail where I started to regain excitement in #Mycelium. I was able to connect with the amazing team at Ecovatie and we quickly saw an R&D path through Veshin's material consultancy services to get started. After months of hard work behind the scenes working across Veshin Factory #Colombia 🇨🇴 #Brazil 🇧🇷 & #China 🇨🇳 we are now in an incredibly exciting position to start commercializing Forager through bulk production in the categories of #footwear, #fashion, #homegoods & #hospitality. Shout out to Cornelia (Conny) Wittke-Kothe, Lacey Davidson & the team at Veshin who has worked so hard in recent months to bring Forager to life. Below is a sneak peak of what we achieved so far. For those attending this month's The Sustainable Angle in New York be sure to check out the Ecovative booth for a closer look at what we have been up to.
