Introducing Vancouver’s first completely natural, biodegradable casket grown from mycelium, the Living Cocoon by LOOP Biotech, “become part of nature’s majestic loop of life”

Loop Biotech believes that Earth’s wisdom can guide us toward a positive footprint.
During their graduation project at Delft University of Technology, founders Bob
Hendrikx and Lonneke Hendrikx-Westhoff explored ways to collaborate with nature.
In the forest, they found their answers in mycelium, the underground root network of
mushrooms and nature’s recycler. Mycelium has the amazing ability to convert dead
organic matter into nourishment for nature. What if we can become part of this loop
of life, enriching the Earth and becoming a source for new life? Their approach is to,
in collaboration with nature, naturally reintroduce nutrients into the cycle of life. Let’s
enrich nature!
