Mycelium car air fresheners are innovative and sustainable products that combine natural and eco-friendly solutions with perfumed essences for the environment.
What is Mycelium and Its Production:
- Mycelium consists of hyphae, which function similarly to plant roots. These hyphae explore a substrate made of wood fiber waste, digest it, and generate and store nutrients.
- Mycelium products, including air fresheners, are created through a process of bio-fabrication. This means that the mycelium hyphae are guided to grow within predefined molds.
- Production is free from chemical processes and additives, making the material 100% natural. The growth substrate is composed of fiber waste, and for Christmas ornaments specifically, it's 100% waste hemp wood.
Features of the Mycelium Car Air Freshener:
-
Design and Use:
- They can be used in cars, making them versatile throughout the year.
- The car air fresheners come with a magnetic clip and a wooden holder for easy application to the car's ventilation grille.
- Their texture is unique: soft and "silk touch".
- They can be customized via pyrography with company logos, messages, or graphics.
-
Compatibility with Essential Oils:
- Mycelium is particularly compatible with essential oils.
- Despite its water-repellent properties, it can absorb natural oil.
-
Oil Consumption Indicator: Mycelium hyphae retain the oil and change color (indicating active emission) when oil is present. Once the oil is depleted, the hyphae return to their original cream color. For a more intense fragrance, a larger quantity of essential oil drops can be used.
-
Specific Materials and Dimensions:
- The natural aromatherapy car kit consists of an ecological wood diffuser and an integrated mycelium capsule.
- Its dimensions are 5x5x2 cm.
- The kit includes a 10 ml natural essential oil of your choice.
Sustainability and Life Cycle:
- The product is designed to be useful to nature and never enters the waste stream.
- It is a "nature recycler" capable of digesting waste and trapping carbon dioxide, making it bioavailable again.
- Mycelium is naturally designed to be fertilizing and nutritious.
-
Compostability: After use, the air freshener (or display stand) can simply be composted or used directly as fertilizer, helping to nourish the soil with beneficial elements.
- The production process of mycelium products transforms waste fibers into compost during manufacturing.
- The product packaging is 100% sustainable and recyclable, promoting a zero-waste product life cycle and reduced environmental impact.
- This type of product embodies the values of sustainability, environmental protection, and circular economy, and aligns with the amendments to articles 9 and 41 of the Italian Constitution, which protect the environment and health.
- The material is 100% waste fiber inoculated with mycelium.
The mycelium car air freshener represents an ecological, customizable, and functional solution for fragrancing environments, which integrates perfectly with natural processes at the end of its life cycle, without generating waste.
