At Pure Mushrooms we work to be economically, socially, ecologically responsible and sustainable.

Building sustainability

Our building’s are equiped with vast solar arrays of which 100% of the solar produced is utilised by our production facilities.

On our substrate facility every drop of water that falls on out site is captured and utilised in the process. All wash down water is filtered and recycled to ensure no resource is wasted.

Process sustainability

In order to create the substrate for the mushrooms to grow, we use mostly by products from other industries.

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.
