Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system and method of producing different bio-based and coated textile composite materials. These bio-based textile composite materials may be used for products in various industries such as, footwear, automotive and accessories. In the system and method described herein, coatings are applied to a backing comprised of regenerated cellulosic materials, with the coatings and the backing further treated to produce a bio-based textile composition.
Abstract: A system and method for creating mycelium textile materials is disclosed, in which leftover, cutoff, and other materials used to create the textile materials that would otherwise be discarded are further used in a second process to create bonded mycelium boards. The system and method further reuse or recycle materials throughout the process of creating the mycelium textile fabric and bonded mycelium boards, thus keeping waste to a minimum.
