Mushroom Insulation Grows Stronger Than Foam
Mushroom insulation, cultivated from mycelium, reshapes sustainable home design in 2026. This material delivers robust thermal performance, inherent fire resistance, and complete biodegradability, serving as a superior natural option to fiberglass and foam. Although initial costs exceed those of traditional insulators, long-term energy savings, improved indoor air quality, and environmentally sound disposal position it as a wise investment for forward-thinking homeowners.
