Future of Packaging: Mushroom Materials as a Solution to Plastic Waste Market Worth US$ 8.05 Billion by 2032

In 2022, the mushroom materials market is projected to be worth US$ 4,561 million. Materials made of mushrooms are more popular since they are portable, simple to use, and good for the environment. The overall demand for mushroom materials is anticipated to increase at a CAGR of 5.8% between 2022 and 2032, reaching a total of approximately US$ 8,015.2 Million by 2032.

Although this material is relatively new to the furniture industry, it has the potential to generate significant income throughout the projected period. The mushroom materials market is anticipated to grow at a noticeable CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2032).

As the sustainability trend is sweeping across various industries, mushroom materials are rapidly replacing plastics in packaging solutions as they are free from volatile organic compounds (VOC) and are derived from biodegradable materials. The transportation sector is among the key contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, especially in developed regions.

Industrials are striving to achieve better fuel efficiency through mass reduction. Mushroom materials are relatively lightweight compared to conventional materials, thus, enabling easy transportation. Further, they are widely used in manufacturing thermal insulators, car parts, and sandwich panels.

Mushroom Materials Market – Growth Restraints

Mushroom materials become flimsy after long exposure to moisture, as such are not considered suitable for packaging during monsoon. Their delicate nature and non-resistance to high pressure restrict their usage as proper construction bricks.

Further, mushroom materials are not available in abundant amounts, unavailability of raw materials can impact the process of production. The high cost of mushroom packaging hampers its sales in the regional market.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Mushroom Materials Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit the mushroom material market hard. Nationwide lockdowns is leading to reduced on-farm workers, thus, hampering overall mushroom production. According to ‘mushroom business,’ only 50-60% of crops have been harvested in February in China.

Due to less availability of raw materials, manufacturers are forced to curtail production or shut down their manufacturing units, causing huge disruption in the supply chain. Travel restrictions further also lead to the downfall of the market.

Moving ahead, players are keeping their focus away from product innovations or new launches during the crisis. They are continuing to manufacture and distribute the products that are already in demand. Governments across the globe are reforming their taxation policies and financial aid to help farmers and businessmen bring back sales to pre-crisis levels.

Mushroom Materials Market – Competitive Landscape

The mushroom material market is consolidated with two major players, Ecovative Design and MycoWorks. These players are continuously focusing on widening the application of mushroom materials and, product development.

For instance,

Ecovative, a New York-based biotech company, is developing compostable packaging from mycelium and hemp – myco-composite. These myco-composites are used to produce commercial, custom-molded mushroom packaging. Unlike plastic, myco-composites are completely biodegradable, hydrophobic, heat resistant, and grow within a few days days. Growing demand for substitutes for plastic, biodegradable packaging methods is gaining much traction in future markets.

For instance,

NEFFA, a clothing and fashion company, has developed biodegradable textiles from mycelium. Watson and Wolfe developed a substitute for animal leather by producing mushroom leather, which is extremely lightweight and flexible in nature.
