What is Mycoremediation?

Transforming contaminated environments using nature's most powerful decomposers

Mycoremediation uses fungi to break down or remove toxins from the environment. Our innovative approach combines cutting-edge science with nature's most powerful decomposers to create sustainable solutions for soil and water contamination.

With England facing unprecedented water quality challenges, mycoremediation offers a proven, scalable, and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional treatment methods.

Our technology achieves 80-95% pollutant removal efficiency while being carbon negative and producing zero toxic sludge.
