Thrilled to share our collaboration with @anewearthproject in developing protective mycelium packaging for the exciting @girlskateboards venture! 🍄🛹 Pro skateboard legends Mike Carroll and Kenny Anderson marked the brand’s 30th anniversary by handcrafting 30 cabinets, each showcasing three hall-of-fame shoe models.
Fans of #GirlSkateboards will be receiving these incredible cabinets in compostable @mushroompackaging and we’re honored to have our contribution in the planet-friendly pack-out! A big shoutout to Girl Skateboards for choosing plastic alternative packaging solutions — grateful to play a role in this epic celebration. 🌍

Rich Brilliant Willing (RBW) is shedding light on sustainability by using #MushroomPackaging 💡🍄 @rbw_studio asked us to grow custom packaging that can protect fragile glass sconces. For the past eight years, our home-compostable mycelium packaging protects the company’s four most popular lighting collections during e-commerce shipments. The design hack? A two-part end cap design, protecting both the top and the bottom of the product while in transit. Each uses the same backplate module part, which adds a layer of protection while saving on costs.
What makes this partnership so special is that the packaging resonates with the RBW’s brand aesthetic and gets rave reviews from their customers!

It’s not just packaging; it’s a commitment to sustainability. Our mycelium-based packaging stands out as the top choice for a compostable and eco-friendly alternative to plastic.

🍄 Packaging featured designed and grown by @mushroompackaging and its licensees @grown_bio & @magicalmshroom 📦
The answer is YES! 🍄 #MushroomPackaging is made with fully circular materials and 100% home-compostable. Customers can enjoy the benefits of compostable mycelium packaging, such as reducing landfill waste, creating nutrient-rich soil, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Just to name a few!
In order to protect the earth and its products, @Seedlipdrinks decided to use greener packaging options for their Seedlip Spice 94 gift set. Mycelium-based packaging has the same protective qualities as PU-based packaging foams, but instead of the packaging ending up in a landfill, it can be composted and give nutrients back to the earth in 45 days! Seedlip has been recognized for its industry leadership and courage demonstrated with this launch.
#MushroomPackaging for Seedlip was created by MycoComposite licensee @magicalmshroom
@Sandor.earth combines luxury and sustainability offering top-quality products, while finding packaging options that avoid landfills. From their aluminum bottles to a partnership with Mushroom® Packaging, Sandor’s packaging is compostable and recyclable.
They asked for packaging that can:
• Protect dent-prone aluminum bottles
• Custom fit to two product sizes
The parts designed for Sándor provide great cushioning for the aluminum bottles, which can be easily damaged in transit without sufficient protection. The solution is designed to protect both a large and travel-sized bottle, allowing them to be shipped modularly based on client orders.
“People are really curious and interested in the packaging. A lot of people haven’t seen it before, and they love that it’s compostable. They say, ‘It makes it look very high end with your bottle.’”
— Ariane Noji, Founder of @contemplation.official
Contemplation produces waterless, multipurpose body and hair care products, driven by a strong ethos of nourishing people without depleting the planet’s resources. They asked for packaging that can:
• Protect heavy glass bottle in transit
• Design to fit existing shipping box
• Custom insert with minimalist aesthetic
We delivered custom parts that have excellent cushioning and provide a beautiful unboxing experience. The look and feel of the packaging is consistent with Contemplation’s messaging and principles, which makes it a perfect fit for the brand. Contemplation and Mushroom® Packaging were a perfect match from the start.

We often get asked about the texture of the packaging and if it's smooth like plastic. The answer is no. Our mycelium packaging is soft, velvety, and nothing like plastic - that's the point! If we want to scale this wonderful, natural solution, we have to accept the innovation for what it offers now. We often let design aesthetics drive priorities when we should be letting our main priority, which is a healthy environment, drive design.
