Sustainability
At Pure Mushrooms we work to be economically, socially and ecologically responsible and sustainable.
Building sustainability
Our building’s solar 100kW system was installed in 2010
We use recycled water for wash down
Process sustainability
In order to create the substrate for the mushrooms to grow, all recycled materials are used.
These materials include wheat straw (carbon), poultry manure (nitrogen), gypsum (pH adjuster), recycled water (storm water/wash-down water) and air (to keep process aerobic). The compost generates its own heat and only uses the energy from machines and fans throughout the process.
