About MyCoBana
MyCoBana is a biomaterials venture based in Ecuador that harnesses the power of nature and science to address today’s material challenges. Operating at the intersection of biotechnology, sustainability, and local innovation, we transform agricultural residues into regenerative solutions that deliver long-term value for both people and planet.
More than a plastic replacement, MyCoBana builds circular supply chains that strengthen local agriculture, empower communities, and restore ecosystems. By focusing on scalable, locally sourced alternatives, we’re helping reshape high-impact industries like packaging and construction with low-footprint materials rooted in tropical biodiversity.
