Creating Ingeo

According to Ward, people can make clothes and fabric from corn. Inge is man-made fiber made from 100% annually renewable resources, and Cargill Dow developed this product in 2003. It is the first major sportswear that was made from Ingeo and its materials are kernels of corn. These products are eco-friendly. They produce casual clothing for men and women. Ingeo is one of the good and hottest products, because it is made from a renewable resource, and it is nontoxic.

How is the environment issue becoming a serious problem in the world and in your daily life? This article has very good points while we have serious environmental problems. We should stop using oil in our clothes. There are issues that growing corn is used a lot of gas and feticide. Producing Ingeo, 100% annually renewable resource is efficient. Also, the clothes including eco-friendly clothes should be less expensive.

First of all, eliminating the use of oil in our clothing is a good first step. Petroleum companies have commanded what we are going to use and we’ve got to stop that. When we cut the use of oil in our clothing, we manage financial risk, because oil is limited and it is a not renewable. We should do research and figure out the Ingeo-making process for the environment.

Second, we can use waste materials for producing corn. There are some issues. Generally, how do farmers make the great number of products on the farm? They have to use gas, and fertilizer. Also, they use pesticides and herbicides. They make more than 500 million pounds of corn from this article. We need those kernels through a fermentation process that produces dextrose, and then is extracted to create Ingeo filament. This is an agriculture commodity, but we need to use these materials for corn and the environment. It reflects the world and it is the world’s leading product.

Finally, the clothes are less expensive than many eco-friendly brands and clothes. More cloth is cheaper, more people buy cloth in life. Ingeo has been used in blankets, pillows, comforters, and mattress pads. The cost of corn is not a problem here. If materials attract the attention of designers, more consumers will buy them. And also, the clothes are less expensive than many eco-friendly brads.

There are advantages and disadvantages, but actually, Ingeo clothes gain tensile strength after 50 or even 100 washes, too. We are going to be out of petroleum, but if we improve the process to create Ingeo filament, it will be nice for consumers and environment that we can get Ingeo clothes easily in our life. Ingeo attire is eco-friendly and made from a renewable resource. We should spread these eco-friendly clothes and productions in our daily life.
