The process
From substrate to shelf, in one automated loop
10 automated steps in 4 phases. When the last step is done, the trolleys return and the cycle starts again.
- Prepare 1-4
- Grow 5-7
- Harvest 8-9
- Reset 10
Step 1 · Prepare
Substrate mix
Substrate mixing process enabled by purpose-built unique equipment.

Step 2 · Prepare
Filling
ABB robot #1 fills the patented trays with substrate.

Step 3 · Prepare
Sealing
ABB robot #1 transports tray into purpose-built unique sealing equipment to enable pasteurisation process and protect substrate from contamination. Then it places the sealed trays on trolleys
Step 4 · Prepare
Oven Pasteurisation
The substrate is pasteurised at high temperature in a MufuTech patented process, which removes competing organisms before the spawn is added.

Step 5 · Grow
Inoculation
Spawn is injected into the substrate by ABB robot #2 in a clean room.
Step 6 · Grow
Incubation Room
Trolleys with trays rest in a climate-controlled room while the mycelium colonises the substrate for several weeks.
Step 7 · Grow
Fruiting Chamber
In a climate-controlled chamber the mushrooms form and grow from the colonised substrate.
Step 8 · Harvest
Harvest
ABB robot #1 harvests the mature mushrooms.
Step 9 · Harvest
Packing
Harvested mushrooms are packed and prepared for distribution to market. Cold storage room is used to store mushroom before distribution.
Step 10 · Reset
Cleaning
Trays are cleaned and sent back to the start of the loop. Used substrate becomes bioenergy.
Step 1
