ColorShield

Natural stain repellence for longer life

Most nylon carpet fibers actually attract stains. That's because nylon carpet fiber usually carries a positive charge that attracts the negative ions found in most acid type stains. Not ColorShield. We switch the charge of ColorShield fibers from positive to negative through a special, patented dye process. As a result, acid based stains such as coffee, fruit punch, wine, tea, soda, and food spills are naturally repelled by ColorShield. They can easily be removed using nothing more than water. This remarkable technology means carpet stays beautiful longer - enabling greater cost savings and lessening the amount of carpet in landfills.

No harsh chemicals needed for maintenance

Water literally is all you need to clean carpets manufactured with ColorShield fibers. Since stain protection characteristics are inherent in the carpet fiber, custom colors and patterns are beautifully protected. Because ColorShield's color is locked in and will not fade or bleed during cleanings, the life of the carpet is extended even longer. It's the environmentally-friendly way to protect the custom colors and patterns of elegantly designed carpets.

Saving money while saving the environment

The longer a carpet lasts, the less impact it has on the environment. Because water is the only cleaning ingredient, there really is no need to use and store chemical cleaners. This not only saves money, but also leads to better indoor air quality and reduces the amount of chemicals in the environment. ColorShield protects carpet and lowers the total cost of ownership while at the time helping save the environment.
