What Are the Benefits & Key Features of Fabric Protectors…
Upholstery fabrics can be treated with Fluorochemical Protectors to increase stain resistance on all types of fibre.
Fluorochemical protectors offer furniture owners not only offer excellent resistance to spills and stains but also have an effect on dry soils by way of making the soiling easy to remove by vacuuming.
Cleaners have long realised that upholstery can often “ugly-out” long before they should have due to dry soiling that has cut, scratched, and abraded fibres.
Protectors that resist dry soiling and make vacuuming more effective significantly extended the useful life of upholstery. The fluorochemical gives the surface tension, the resistance to dry soils, oil based soils and any other type of stain.
Key Features of Water-Based Carpet Protectors:
- Low Toxicity: Water-based protectors have fewer harmful chemicals and produce fewer fumes, making them safer for indoor use, especially in homes with pets, children, or individuals sensitive to strong odours.
- Environmentally Friendly: They are generally more eco-friendly due to their lower volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, reducing their impact on indoor air quality.
- Gentle on Upholstery: Water-based formulas are less harsh than solvent-based options, making them suitable for delicate fabrics and natural fibres like wool.
- Effective Stain Protection: These protectors are effective at preventing stains from both water-based and oil-based spills. They bond with the fibers to resist absorption, giving you time to clean up the mess.
- Efficient Removal Of Dry Soil: Less surface tension makes dry soiling easy to remove by vacuuming.
- Easier Application: Since they’re less hazardous and more user-friendly, water-based carpet protectors can be applied without special ventilation or safety measures.
