MakeGrowLab (MGL) is a biotech company specializing in the large-scale growth of nanofibers -the foundation of compostable and plastic-free materials without the need for deforestation or petroleum-based additives.

 

Our core technology is a high-performance nano-fiber grown by microbes

through the upcycling of local biowaste.

Scoby Packaging Materials®

Nanofibers SPM

SPM is Nanocellulose material synthesized by microorganisms from biowaste. It is composed of nanometer-scale cellulose fibrils and/or nanocrystals. It is used in variety of products, including being used as a reinforcing agent in composite materials, cosmetics, paints, as a food additive, and as a biodegradable packaging material.
