Entry 10- Software evidence

For one of my forms of ICT, I have created a survey to collect responses and data from clients I intend to sell to. This is a simply made survey made using the software website of www.surveymonkey.com

Here is the link to the questionnaire below:

I find this website very useful as there is an automatic system in which i can just sign in and i receive feedback from people that have taken the questionnaire.

Entry 9- Material Research

There are a variety of materials considered "environmentally-friendly" for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, the renewability of the product. I intend to explore the advantages of some of the fabrics to add into my own product.

HEMP
Hemp plants grow very quickly and densely which makes it difficult for weeds to take hold, eliminating the need for herbicides and artificial fertilizers. It requires no irrigation as it thrives on the amount of water in the average rainfall, and it is highly pest-resistant.Those fibres are also long-lasting, in fact, historically hemp has been used for making naval ropes that were used in and around water because they resist rot.


ORGANIC COTTON
Organic cotton is much more environmentally friendly than the traditional variety as it uses no pesticides, herbicides, or insecticides during the growing cycle.Usually manufacturers using this plant to make textiles follow up the process by using natural dyes to further reduce the amount of chemicals dumped into our ecosystem.


SOY SILK
Soy Silk is made from the products of the tofu making process, liquefied proteins are then taken out from this and are converted into fibres. These fibres are easily spun and then weaved or knitted.

FORTREL EcoSpun™
A polyester fibre made out of recycled plastic bottles which can be made into fleece.

BAMBOO
Bamboo is a commonly found renewable type of grass, as well has having antibacterial properties and the fabric "breathes". All these materials listed are classified as being eco-friendly and appeal to customers who are looking for extra reasons when buying.
