Packaging made to disappear.

Enabling a global shift towards sustainable packaging practices.

Custom packaging designed specifically for your needs.

By harvesting the strength of agricultural waste and the binding power of mycelium [the network of mushroom roots], we create strong and reliable material capable of fully replacing foamed plastic and beyond. We boost business growth by providing tailor made sustainable packaging while taking care of the planet.

Materials that make a difference.

What is mycelium?

Mycelium is a part of fungi that’s growing underground. It’s technically mushroom roots, while what we see above ground is mushroom body. Mycelium is made up of tiny, thread-like fibers that grow like a spider net creating a big interconnected network that has no size limit. These fast-growing threads are what make mycelium a perfect component for sustainable packaging material. It acts like a fully natural glue, keeping the main material together.

It only takes about five days for mycelium to grow into packaging, and after use, it breaks down completely in about 30 days, leaving no waste behind.

Why agricultural waste?

When we say agricultural waste, we mean plant stems that are left from textile and other fibers production. They are rich in cellulose and other components that make them an ideal base for biodegradable packaging. Now we mostly use hemp leftovers that are sourced locally from farmers in Spain and Portugal, as hemp has the strongest fibers around. But it’s not the only material we can work with – we also use other natural by-products to make packaging, from linen to tea tree leftovers.

We support the circular economy by turning farming waste to useful products and paying farmers for material that otherwise would go unused. It’s about taking from nature responsibly and giving back, supporting local agriculture and sustainable business practices.

How it’s done?

Our production process for mycelium-based packaging combines precision and sustainability, ensuring that each piece of packaging is crafted to meet high environmental and design standards.

1

We prepare and sterilize agricultural waste.

2

We cultivate mycelium through our own process.

3

We combine agricultural waste and mycelium.

4

We form and grow your packaging.

5

Packaging is dried and it is ready to protect your items!

Why choose our biodegradable packaging?

Our material compared to pulp:


	Pulp Packaging	S.Lab Packaging

Material	Natural fibers – trees or recycled paper.	Agricultural waste and mycelium.
Chemicals	Rely on chemicals like bleaching (chlorine dioxide), synthetic coating (polyethylene) agents, wet strength additives (formaldehyde) and others.	Zero chemicals, 2 plant-based components only.
Water Consumption	10-300 liters per 1 kg of production.	2 liters per 1 kg of production. With 95% reused in the closed-loop manufacturing process, 1 kg of packaging requires 0.1 liter of water.
Formation	Requires custom metal & plastic molds that are expensive and harmful for the environment.	No molds needed in the process significantly reduce manufacturing costs. Any shape and size is possible.
Market Appeal	Traditional and widely recognized.	Innovative, premium design. Has sophisticated & natural appearance that attracts modern customers.
Strength	Might differ since it depends on additives and energy input. Low protection of the product.	Significantly stronger than pulp. Exceptional durability & product protection.
Quality	Unpleasant texture, fragile, occasionally with cellulose particles peeling off.	Smooth white surface ensures premium feel and packaging look.

Our material compared to polystyrene:

Polystyrene Packaging

S.Lab Packaging

Material	Fossil fuels, chemicals, and special blowing agents.	Agricultural waste and mycelium only, Zero chemicals
Decomposition	Non-biodegradable, takes up to 500 years to decompose.	Fully biodegradable, takes 30-45 days to decompose.
Water Consumption	12 liters per 1 kg.	2 litres per 1 kg. With 95% reused in the manufacturing process, 1 kg of packaging requires 0.1 litre of water.
End Life	Consumes 30% of worldwide landfills.	Will never end up on landfill, enriches soil when biodegrade.
Shaping Process	Requires molds, expensive and harmful for the environment.	Shaping robot – allow any size or form and reduce production cost.
Health Impact	Seeps into the food chain and human diet when degrades in seawater.	Safe for people.
