Packing foam is useful for only a few weeks or months before being tossed into the trash. But after being thrown away, this petroleumbased material can survive for thousands of years in landfills.

Agriculture waste is used for the production of ecoradle. Agricultural waste products become the bulk, or main body, of the packing material, which is held together by mushroom roots, or mycelium.
