Mohawk markets SmartStrand carpet. Call Mohawk. Forum posters who have called report that carpet that approximately 63% of the carpet is polyester. SmartStrand reports only 37% is corn based fiber: Smartstrand: A Bio-Based Carpet Made of Corn (http://www.flooring-concepts-by-inez.com/smartstrand.html)
