SYNLawn advances soy turf in South Dakota

In South Dakota, soy turf maker SYNLawn Mountain West has entered into partnerships with the South Dakota Soybean Research and Promotion Council, South Dakota State University, and South Dakota Mines to advance soy-based products.

The collaboration includes a custom landscaping design SYNLawn Mountain West installed on the front lawn of the new POET Bioproducts Center located at SDSU’s Research Park in Brookings. Unveiled during the facility’s Grand Opening celebration on October 11, the installation showcases the versatility of soy and was created using SYNLawn’s EnviroLoc+ soy polyol material.

SYNLawn Mountain West also met with experts at South Dakota Mines on October 25 to discuss sustainability improvements and attend the Grand Opening of the Composite and Nanocomposite Advanced Manufacturing-Biomaterials Center at the Composites and Polymer Engineering Laboratory located in Rapid City.
