Researchers test continuous method for making leather-like fabric from fungal mycelium

Researchers in Finland have developed a new way to turn fungal material grown in fermentation tanks into flexible, leather-like sheets. The method could make mycelium-based fabrics easier to manufacture in larger quantities. However, the material still needs improvements before it can match the full durability of leather used in handbags, shoes and furniture. The researchers ...
