Let’s break it down on why ours are better than theirs... 👀
Theirs:
❌ Made from petroleum-based foam
❌ Contain PFAS and other toxic forever chemicals
❌ End up in landfills or oceans—forever
❌ Mass-produced with zero transparency
Ours:
✅ Grown from mycelium
✅ 100% compostable at home
✅ Nontoxic, hypoallergenic
✅ Audiologist-approved, non-toxic, and ridiculously comfortable
✅ Made in the U.S. with planet-first production
This isn’t just a swap. It’s a system reset. Let’s leave plastic hearing protection in the past.

We didn’t make ear-shaped earplugs. We made cylinders. Why? Because one shape doesn’t fit all—but a simple, squishy cylinder can. It gently molds to each ear canal without pressure, pain, or that weird “plugged” sensation. Comfort-first, every time.
Our mycelium foam naturally blocks out about 20 decibels of sound—no additives or coatings needed. That’s enough to dull the chaos of a concert, a plane, a snoring partner—while still keeping you aware of your surroundings.
The material itself is the magic: it’s breathable, compostable, and engineered at the cellular level for softness and bounce. No synthetics. No petrochemicals. Just high-performance protection that disappears when you’re done with it.

Eight years ago, at a small material innovation summit called Biofabricate, our founder Lauryn spotted a wild prototype: a foam-like structure made entirely from mycelium. It was raw, early, and full of potential. She tucked it away in her brain as “one to watch.”
Fast forward to GOB’s material search—and that same prototype had evolved into a high-performance, compostable foam made by Ecovative. It was the exact material we needed to launch GOB. No plastic. No toxins. Just biology doing what biology does best.
Even crazier? Lauryn and the founders of Ecovative all went to the same design program at RPI, just a few years apart—mentored by the same professor. From the same studio to the same mission: rethinking the materials we live with. Full circle.
This week we joined other members of BioMADE at the annual Member Meeting. Gavin McIntyre, CCO and Co-founder, and Lacey Davidson, Director of MarComms, served up delicious #mybacon from Ecovative spin out company @myforestfoods for attendees - MyBacon is now available in over 1400 grocery retailers nationwide!

We had the pleasure of hosting @mattferrell of @undecidedmf at Ecovative HQ this month!
We have been big fans of Matt’s YouTube channel for quite some time - he toured the @myforestfoods farm with Ecovative CEO and Co-founder Eben Bayer and got to taste some new products that are launching soon!

More innovation. More sustainability. More local jobs.
@ecovative ‘s recent event at its Green Island facility showcased MyBacon—a locally made, plant-based bacon crafted from mushroom mycelium.
Guests got a behind-the-scenes look at the manufacturing process and sampled this delicious, sustainable alternative.
With support from Advance Albany County Alliance, including a $1M loan to expand its packaging facilities, Ecovative is set to create 160 new local jobs over the next five years while pushing the boundaries of sustainable food innovation.

From forest to your breakfast table 🍄➡️🍳
We’re excited to announce $11M in new funding that’s fueling the growth of @myforestfoods and their flagship #MyBacon product—made from mycelium, a protein that’s been part of Earth’s ecosystem for millions of years.
Unlike our competitors who rely on complex processing, our patented solid-state fermentation method (a fancy way of saying we grow in a controlled environment in an indoor vertical farm) preserves mycelium’s natural texture while using simple, recognizable ingredients.
The results speak for themselves: We can grow 1 million lbs of MyBacon on one acre of land annually - saving water, land and with only highly nutritious compost and water as byproducts of our production.
With its savory taste and satisfying texture, MyBacon is winning the hearts of not just vegetarians but meat eaters too!

🍄 BREAKING: $11 million in new funding just landed!
This investment is powering our spinout @myforestfoods and their incredible, award-winning MyBacon—currently the fastest-selling product in its breakfast category across North America’s natural channel. Available in over 1200 stores and growing!
What makes MyBacon special? Just five simple ingredients: organic mycelium, salt, sugar, coconut oil, and natural flavors. That’s the power of working with a protein that’s been perfecting itself for millions of years! 🌱
The funding is also supporting our Forager division, creating sustainable mycelium materials for everything from home-compostable earplugs with @gob.earth to fashion accessories and apparel.
