SOYBEANS FEATURED IN SUSTAINABLE HOME PRODUCTS –

Many companies are finding sustainable home improvement solutions in soy. “Corporate sustainability initiatives and consumer demand for safe products drive soy technology development to replace petrochemicals and other additives,” said Lee Walko, biobased business developer and technical adviser to the United Soybean Board. A growing list of large and small companies have implemented soy in their products. There are more than 1,000 soy-based home products currently on the market, from flooring and roofing products to candles and carpets. (FarmWeekNow)
