| Revolutionary carpet fiber technology Mohawk Industries, Inc. and DuPont announced an exclusive agreement to provide a new line of residential carpet to the flooring industry. Under the terms of this agreement, DuPont will provide its newest polymer technology to Mohawk who will manufacture and market it under the brand SmartStrand with DuPont Sorona polymer. This new technology, offered by Mohawk, promises consumers durability, superior performance, stain resistance, and comfort. With SmartStrand made with DuPont Sorona, Mohawk is able for the first time to provide the durability of high-performance fibers with stain resistance that is engineered into the fiber. At the molecular level, SmartStrand carpets made with DuPont Sorona will not allow stains to stay permanently attached to the fiber. This built-in stain resistance reaches new levels of protection, allowing tough stains such as mustard, red wine and cherry Kool-Aid to be removed simply with warm water and a mild detergent, or with Mohawk FloorCare Essentials. Mohawk’s SmartStrand made with DuPont Sorona polymer is in stores now. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
