Hearing your first impressions of Treekind® always brings a smile to our faces. 😁 We caught up with some of the fantastic people who passed by our stand at the #FFE2024 event by The Sustainable Angle. Dali, from Vivobarefoot, was super impressed by how our material has aged over a four-year period and the fact that it biodegrades. Thank you for popping by and visiting us! https://lnkd.in/eUsZdGsi #BeTreekind Mira N.

Vogue Business is looking at the state of the «Next-Gen» Material Industry. Many brands show ambitions but fail when it comes to real commitment. Why? It's about the rules of the game - those need to change. The cost of materials must equal the price, which is clearly not the case today. Real costs are pushed onto next generations, which is more than unfair towards A) our kids and B) responsibly sourced - and therefore more expensive - material alternatives. Once those outlines change, the material revolution will be like a tsunami. Policy makers must initiate this change, and create a framework for the future. Thank you Bella Webb for asking the right questions! Bananatex® OnceMore® Biophilica Sequinova UNCAGED Innovations Ecovative - the mycelium technology company
