Mycelium-based blocks could be the future of construction - Technology Org

This article from Technology Org explores the potential of mycelium-based composite insulation panels in sustainable construction. Mycelium, the network of white threads beneath mushrooms, is a powerful recycler of organic matter. Researchers are investigating how to harness mycelium's unique properties to create lightweight, biodegradable, and fire-resistant materials for construction. Although mycelium-based composites are not yet strong enough to replace traditional building materials, ongoing research aims to improve their durability and environmental benefits.
