PoreShield, a soy-based product created through a research collaboration between ISA, Purdue University, and the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), was funded by soybean checkoff dollars.

INDOT applied PoreShield on sections of U.S. 24, Interstate 69 and Interstate 65. The department saved money and reduced labor costs compared to the products and practices it replaced. The estimates are a 20% percent savings from application on joint treatments and a 25%-35% savings from surface treatments, such as on bridges

Soybean-based drinking straws won the 25th annual Student Soybean Innovation Competition.
