how it’s made<br />
“Ingeo” means ingredients from<br />
the earth, and is derived entirely<br />
from more sustainable agricultural<br />
resources like corn. In other words,<br />
it begins with an abundant, natural<br />
raw material that can be easily and<br />
efficiently produced year after year.<br />
The extracted starch is put through<br />
a simple process to make plant<br />
sugars. The sugars are fermented in<br />
a process similar to making yogurt.<br />
Then the fermentation products are<br />
transformed into a high-performance<br />
polymer called polylactide, which<br />
is branded NatureWorks® PLA.<br />
Ingeo fiber is extruded from this<br />
polymer.<br />
