24 Jan 2023 --- Fungi Solutions is turning mushrooms into compostable packaging for the Australian market. The start-up packaging company based in Melbourne aims to divert organic waste from landfills, marking it as the “first business” in Australia to convert fungi into packaging. The converting process combines fungi with organic waste to grow and create compostable packaging. After use, the packaging is home-compostable, allowing consumers to compost the products in their backyards.
