myco s.r.o.

A Czech deep-tech company developing biodegradable mycelium-based materials from organic waste, offering sustainable and cost-competitive alternatives to single-use plastics.

Myco, founded in 2021 and based in Bzenec, transforms organic byproducts such as sawdust, hemp shavings, and agricultural residues into high-performance biocomposites using fungal mycelium as a natural binder. The resulting material is fully biodegradable, produced with low energy input, and designed to support circular economy principles. The company’s flagship solution, Myco 4Pack with SafePads, provides a lightweight, resilient, and stackable alternative to polystyrene packaging, suitable for a wide range of industries. Its portfolio also includes FixPack product fixations, Go & Comfy aroma diffusers, and Fence odor-carrier systems for agriculture, highlighting the versatility of the technology. Proprietary innovations in substrate processing and moulding allow for faster, more efficient, and scalable production compared to conventional methods. Myco’s approach has earned recognition through multiple innovation and sustainability awards, reinforcing its role as a key Czech player in the transition to sustainable materials.
