Measuring Our Impact

Every action counts — here’s how we’re making a difference.

Carbon Footprint

One of our biggest sustainability goals is to keep our carbon footprint small. We work with a Life Cycle Assessment consultant to assess and benchmark our annual environmental impact.

Performance Measurement

Starting in 2023, we’re establishing a baseline to set our sustainability performance goals. From there, we’ll track progress and quantify accomplishments on an
annual basis.

Emissions Reduction

Our total estimated impact of production amounts to 0,552 kg CO2-eq per 1 kg of mushroom powder – making Myzel a more environmentally conscious choice than other nutraceutical products
grown Worldwide.

Renewable Energy

By the end of 2023, Myzel will begin to report the ratio of the energy that is purchased from renewable sources as a percentage of
total energy usage.

Our Energy Consumption

Our Energy Consumption

Myzel implemented a 60T ground source geothermal loop to provide all of the heating and cooling for our facility operations.

We built the facility based on sound building design practices, including the installation of extensive thermal barrier, radiant heat, and energy recovery ventilation. These design elements reduce our energy consumption to less than 20% of a typical building, while the geothermal loop provides a substantial portion of our energy requirements.

The recaptured rain water collected from our facility rooftops is collected in a wastewater pond, then purified and used for our cooking process.

In 2026, we plan to install a rooftop solar system to offset our electrical consumption.
