Fairm

Our plans for a pilot plant are ready! We are now in the process of raising the necessary funds.

Fairm uses fermentation with a fungus to make building materials from local lignocellulosic biomass. This 'Fairm Foam' is a natural alternative for (foam) insulation in construction. Joost Vette, cofounder of Fairm, about participating Circular Factory in 2022: “The involved experts, organization and participants were a great mix of knowledge, experience and enthusiasm. The site visits are a great part of the program, as it helps you envision the circular company you want to achieve yourself. Our plans for a pilot plant are ready! We are now in the process of raising the necessary funds."
