Mimmik Tile: the first tile ever grown with the help of bacteria
Traditional cement production accounts for 8% of global Co2 emissions. Concrete is the second–most–consumed material in the world after water. Without radical change, the way we build our infrastructure will continue to undermine a healthy and safe future. Inspired by coral, one of nature’s most durable structures, this technology uses bacteria to bind carbon and calcium into a biologically formed marble material. Within two days, Mimmik Tiles grow into strong, durable floor tiles. It's a planet–friendly alternative to traditional cement that reduces CO₂ emissions by at least 60%. Mimmik Tile is developed and produced by biotech company Biomason.
Mimmik is brought to the market by FRONT. FRONT is a curated platform for sustainable building materials. Working closely with innovative producers, such as Biomason. FRONT brings together a growing collection of low carbon aesthetic materials made from waste and renewable resources.
