THE FACTORIES
Built for Scale
Replacing plastic at scale requires industrial capacity.
Since 2019, MMC has developed one of the largest industrial mycelium packaging networks in Europe. Our facilities are designed for large volumes, repeatability and cost parity with EPS and moulded fibre.
Each site follows a structured layout with controlled environmental zones, modular racking systems and standardised process flows to ensure consistent performance at volume.
Our Beeston facility anchors UK production, supported by our R&D centre in Addlestone, Surrey. Additional expansion is planned across Europe and North America as we replicate a proven manufacturing model.
This is not pilot production. It is scalable infrastructure.
A village in the Greater Nottingham area, Attenborough shares its name with the legendary broadcaster and journalist David.
The village was home to the UK’s largest Mushroom® Packaging facility until we opened Beeston.
Now Mushroom 4 has been repurposed to house our new e-commerce venture making off-the-shelf Mushroom® Packaging, ranging from gift boxes to corner protectors.
Beeston is our primary hybrid raw materials and packaging manufacturing facility.
Here we combine locally sourced agricultural feedstock with controlled mycelium cultures to produce high volumes of consistent raw material and finished components.
The site includes advanced pasteurisation capability, allowing the integration of regrind and production returns into the process, further improving material efficiency.
At 17,500 sq ft, Beeston operates at multimillion unit annual capacity and serves as our UK headquarters.
