Mykor, a Bristol-based biotechnology company developing low-carbon construction products from industrial and agricultural waste, has raised £4 million in new funding.

The round was led by Clean Growth Fund, with participation from the British Business Bank’s South Investment Fund via The FSE Group, Green Angel Ventures, and support from Innovate UK’s investor partnership programme. Mykor said the latest raise brings its total funding secured to £7.5 million.

The company plans to use the capital to accelerate the scale-up of its industrial biofabrication technologies, expand production, and build a replicable model for deploying manufacturing capacity across key markets.

Mykor is developing construction systems grown from waste streams as pressure increases on the built environment to reduce both embodied and operational carbon. The funding reflects continued investor interest in materials technologies aimed at decarbonising construction at industrial scale.
