INTERIOR DESIGN SUSTAINABLY ELEGENT

On what do we stand and go? How long will our floor last? Properties such as timeless elegance and elegent and a particularly well-balanced design speak for longevity.The ground is the foundation. Especially in times when sustainability is understood to be one of the most important factors in the construction industry, too, attention is focused on the basis.

Visionary floors come from the northern Italian mogu. The place gives the company its name. A radically natural covering was invented there. The founders developed a mycelium-based material based on the conviction that nature’s intelligence could be harnessed for sustainable products. As pioneers of this new material technology, they offer products for indoor use. 

A wide range emerged. For example, the look of the tiles is reminiscent of stone tiles, and the durability is also designed for longevity. Floor coverings should withstand daily use and must be particularly robust.

 The product variants are not only available with different properties, ranging from soft and foamy to strong and highly dense, as flexible flooring and tiles, but also in different colours. The color tones alternate between natural tones of water, forest, earth and sand and are coordinated in such a way that they can be easily combined.

 Behind this is a design approach that wants to bring people and nature closer together – both through materials and aesthetics. This includes a production process that avoids pollution, conserves resources and minimizes energy consumption.

So how is this sustainable product made? The potential of a mycelium-based technology ELEGENT was explored in a research process lasting many years. The choice of the starting material resulted from the desire and the realization that many of the currently used forms of production and the usual design processes need to be changed.

 In the face of numerous crises, the people at Mogu are convinced that it is imperative to achieve a balance between the human world with its demands and the natural ecosystems. In view of the endless mountains of waste that are produced every day as a by-product of industrial production methods, the need for fundamental changes was recognized. 

And the possibilities for this were thought up: to create products with high added value from supposedly worthless secondary or waste materials. This resulted in long-lasting mycelium-based products that can be biodegraded at the end of their life cycle under the right industrial conditions – and thus return to nature’s cycle.

 The new, revolutionary materials

products are created from the combination of organic residual fibers and mushroom mycelium. In this way, waste from other industrial processes becomes the basis for luxurious living environments. Components such as corn on the cob, rice straw, used coffee grounds, discarded seaweed or mussel shells are transformed into raw materials. 

After the value of these raw materials has been explored in research and development processes, high-performance products can now be created from them. This resulted in long-lasting mycelium-based products that can be biodegraded at the end of their life cycle under the right industrial conditions – and thus return to nature’s cycle.

Both Flexboden and Floor Tiles are made from bio-polyurethane resin developed from bio-based, renewable and recycled ingredients. These make up up to 70 percent of the formulation. With this durable resin, Mogu has come up with an exclusive innovation in the world of polyurethane-based materials.

Mogu Flex

Mogu Tiles floor tiles are made from a bio-composite of cotton and hemp and laminated with Mogu Flex. The starting material is pressed from cellulose with the addition of a 100 percent natural binding agent ELEGENT. Thanks to the mycelium technology, the loose fibers are bound together and react with the heat of the compression technology of 180 degrees Celsius. The core is 100 percent natural and biodegradable. The mechanical properties correspond to those of high-density fiberboard (HDF).

is a bio-PU roll floor that consists of 67 percent renewable resources. Finely chopped mussel shells are added during production elegent. Usually they would be left as litter on the sea beaches. The small pieces of shell give the material a special aesthetic touch. The formulation is free of solvents, plasticizers and heavy metals and has low VOC emissions.

With almost 95 percent bio-based material and a bio-polyurethane coating, the floor tiles defy everyday use caused by scratches and sharp heels. The paint used consists of a heavy metal-free, two-component, water-based dispersion with a low VOC content. The minimal degree of gloss leads to a matt aesthetic and a soft impression. At the end of their life cycle, the tiles can be recycled. They are ground and used as a biofiller for the next generation of Mogu Flex.

The thermal qualities of the material also have an advantageous effect: concrete cools in summer while it has a warming effect in winter. This saves costs for climate control. Easy handling and cleaning complete the set of desired properties. Such a floor is an ideal partner for minimalist, contemporary interior design styles, but also suits more traditional interiors.

Fair-faced concrete floors are described by the Upper Austrian manufacturer Wohnbeton as velvety soft and stylistically diverse. Different environmental influences during production, such as temperature, craftsmanship and the composition of the stone cause the individuality of each fair-faced concrete floor. Due to the seamless design, such a floor can also compete with tiles. Wohnbeton manufactures its products on the basis of water, stone and burnt lime. 

AThe concrete suppliers work according to ecological maxims. Waste can be avoided by manufacturing directly on the construction site. You produce a customized floor that lasts for several generations ELEGENT. It is precisely this extreme durability that makes concrete a sustainable material, although production is energy-intensive. 

Because of its high storage capacity and good sound insulation values, the Institute for Building Biology and Building Ecology classifies concrete as “good” – also because concrete does not emit any toxins and has good recycling options. (dd)

  1. An excellent article by someone who actually knows the facts on foreign relations.That version of Scottish Wind Power has given me so much relief. Thanks Guy Ingerson for enunciating the facts so clearly.I wish I had accessed your article before the Question Session in Holyrood at Noon today!! It puts my interpretation of Anas Sarwar’s assault on the First Minister into the shade! I’ll apologise to the points I raised in my post earlier today. I would be pleased to be able to get more Info on the progress made in exploiting this new Power Source for Scotland. We must NEVER AGAIN allow such a resource to be “stolen” by WM and be used only for the Health and Wellbeing of Scotland and the Scottish People. gate io
