CAPE TOWN, SA / ACCESSWIRE / May 5, 2021 / WUHAN GENERAL GROUP, INC. (OTC PINK:WUHN) ("Wuhan" or the "Company"), a bioceutical company focused on alternative plant-based cannabinoids and psilocybin medical research is pleased to announce the following update:
The hemp and mycelium eco-friendly R&D division of M2Bio Sciences, has secured a laboratory facility near its Woodstock office in Cape Town, South Africa. This will enable the company to continue at greater scale the development of local, 100% bio-based, bio-sourced and biodegradable packaging solutions to replace single-use petroleum-based plastics.
The team of ambitious engineers and environmental scientists are developing and testing bio-based plastics from films to foams, including composites. They are using three-dimensional design and forming with hemp-infused PLA to create unique product molds for growing mycelium foam substitutes. The research will now be conducted in a dedicated eco-friendly lab, with a mission to achieve a zero-carbon footprint.
"Everyone is talking about the '60 000 uses of hemp' and the new mushroom economy - but not many are taking concrete steps to actually develop working products. Our laboratory is equipped with cutting-edge state of the art 3D printing hardware and software enabling our team to become leaders in the field of new alternative bio-materials" said Willem Jonker, COO of the M2Bio cannabis division.
The pilot project underway is a hemp and mycelium-based surfboard, the M2Bioboard, that's 100% plant-based and biodegradable. The research is being led by engineer Luke Colvin, a competitive world-class surfer. Born in Durban and having travelled much of the Southern African coastline, from Namibia to Mozambique in search of the perfect wave, now on a quest for nature's favorite surfboard.
