Review: Eton Shirts

Eton Shirts, a Swedish company has developed a fabric that does not require ironing. It needs only body heat to remain wrinkle free and returns to its original shape after washing. This will result in a decrease in energy consumption because there will be less ironing. When products are developed that eliminate the need for human interaction there are pros and cons. There is the possibility that certain areas of business, in this case, ironing shops, manufacturers of presses, might become obsolete. On the other hand, the energy saved would be tremendous.
