PROTECTION AGAINST BACTERIA, FUNGI AND UNWANTED VISITORS IN YOUR CARPET - GUARANTEED

Guaranteed for a lifetime. With Permafresh fibre you're guaranteed a fresher, hygienic safe environment…permanently. Permafresh fibre has an active agent which is integral to the fibre which will continue to perform for the lifetime of the product. Washing and cleaning will not impair performance.

Benefits for allergy suffers. As well as the growth of destructive bacteria, mould, mildew and fungi, Permafresh also eradicates dust mites. All of the above trigger allergies and asthma.

Permafresh in your product. Using Permafresh fibre allows us as a manufacturer to provide optimum levels of hygiene and freshness for the lifetime of our product promoting a cleaner and friendlier environment…for life.

Polypropylene is accepted world wide as the best of all materials for floor covering where heavy traffic is expected. Its hardwearing characteristics are without equal. Combine this with excellent colour retention, easy cleaning and sensible price, and you will understand why Rawson carpets and tiles are market leaders.

In today’s environmentally-conscious market however, it is no longer enough to provide comfort, design and good wear characteristics. Clients now require protection against the traditional enemies of carpeting: mould, fungi and spillage smells. Heath and Safety legislation too may be extended to include bacteriological protection in public places and the workplace. Only new Permafresh polypropylene fibre lets you meet, and beat, those demands.

What is Permafresh Fibre?

Permafresh Fibre is an extruded polypropylene fibre which includes, within it's make-up, a proven anti-bacterial agent. The product is unique and is the first fibre of its kind in the world. Laboratory tests show that Permafresh Fibre will prevent the growth of destructive bacteria, moulds, mildew and fungi and will provide effective control of dust mites.

  Will it Help Allergy Sufferers?

Because Permafresh Fibre eradicates dust mites as well as preventing the growth of destructive bacteria, mould, mildew and fungi, the prevalence of these important triggers for allergic and asthmatic responses will significantly reduce.

 

What is it's Purpose?

Permafresh Fibre has been created to bring new permanent levels of hygiene and freshness to commercial and institutional environments. It provides specifiers, end users and contractors with the assurance that they are complying with best practice and minimising the possibility of future product deterioration.

How Long Will it Last?

Because the active agent is integral to the fibre, it will continue to be effective for the lifetime of the floorcovering with no reduction in its effectiveness over that period. Unlike surface applied bactericides, wear and cleaning will not reduce its perfomance in any way.

How Does It Work?

Permafresh Fibre slowly but continuously releases a safe active agent which migrates into all other fibres within the floorcovering, providing ultimate protection throughout the product.

 

 

What is the Effect on General Health

Permafresh Fibre reduces the spread of infection by inhabiting the growth of common bacteria.

Will the floorcovering smell fresher?

By resisting the growth of mould and mildew and combating the bacteria contained in everyday spillages, Permafresh Fibres preserve hygienic freshness.

Will the Flooring Last Longer?

Permafresh Fibres will prolong the useful life of the floorcovering by preventing the growth of commonly occurring fungi which are often the most significant factors in carpet deterioration.

Where Can It Be Used?

Permafresh Fibre has the same versatility as regular polypropylene and can be used indoors or outdoors with no effect on performance. It's perfect for offices and shops, sports halls or pool surrounds, student flats or hospitals, and because of its unique qualities, it will be in great demand for those environments where the young and the vulnerable are in regular contact with the floorcovering, such as schools and nurseries, rest homes and hostels.
