Carpeting made from corn uses a revolutionary new fiber based on a breakthrough technology that allows man-made fibers to be
derived from corn a 100% annually renewable resource.
Most carpet fibers (Nylon, Polyester, Olefin) are made from petroleum oil. Carpeting made from corn limits the impact on the earth’s
natural resources. This corn-based alternative could put a dent in our dependence on foreign oil. As a result of making carpet out of
corn, we have other environmental benefits including reduced CO2 emissions.

How is Corn made into Carpet?
1. Farmers harvest the corn and send it to a milling plant
2. The milling plants grind & cook the corn into starch
3. The corn starch is then converted into sugar
4. The sugar is converted with chemical reactions to plastic
5. The plastic is melted and forced through molds that
create fibers about the thickness of human hair.
6. The fibers are spun into yarn then into carpeting.

Renewable Resource - Fibers are made from
corn thus it can be grown new each year and not
deplete oil reserves
Reduced CO2 Emissions - By not using
petroleum based products we can reduce the CO2
emissions.
Biodegradable - The fibers will not fill the landfills
years later, a special product can be sprayed on to the
fibers and it will decompose in a short time.
Permanent Stain Protection - Built-in protection
that will not wash off or wear off because it is not
topical.
Exceptional Durability - This fiber is better then
nylon and other petroleum products with heavy use.
Extraordinary Softness - Inherently soft fiber that
doesn't compromise quality to gain the soft feel.
Excellent Color Palette - You are not limited to
one of two colors, we have a infinite color palette.
