Mycelium - Mylea™
Description
Mylea™ is a leather-like material made by Mycotech Lab using 100% Mushroom Mycelium and takes inspiration from the process of making mycelium tempeh. The process of making Mylea™ undergoes a meticulous calibrated incubation and is meticulously designed to optimize the mycelium’s metabolism. Mylea™ is made to serve as an alternative to petroleum-based leather such as animal leather and faux leather. Mylea™ is found to contain 70% lower in dichlorobenzene substance (DCB) than in bovine leather (based on a 200kg product comparison using the LCA approach). There are no toxic and carcinogenic chemicals used such as chromium salt and heavy metal synthetic dyes during the animal leather tanning process.
