I am in internship period in a french enterprise and i have to look for a new fibre. Here, only cotton, polyester and flax are used. However INGEO is said like a new fibre with good properties. But I never see and touch these fibres. What could you tell me about that? And about the price? And about the dying? Thanks for your answer.
