Corn syrup and corn liquor, sure. But corn plastic? NatureWorks -- a subsidiary of the country's second-largest private company, Cargill -- makes fibers and packaging materials from corn and other renewable, non-polluting resources (as opposed to traditional, oil-derived plastics). The company processes natural plant sugars into a proprietary polylactide polymer called Ingeo, which is turned into packaging products such as films, containers, and coated papers, or textile fibers in clothing, upholstery, and carpeting. Among the company's partners are Japanese plastics makers Unitika and Mitsubishi Chemical and a division of Alcoa called Alcoa KAMA.
