DEFINITION: A completely new form of carpeting fiber made from the combination of 1.3 propanediol (PDO) and terephthalic acid (TPA). Triexta PTT properties are derived from a unique semi-crystalline molecular structure. Used currently in residential applications and as BCF.
Recognized by the Federal Trade Commission as a unique fiber subclass, Triexta has demonstrated characteristics previously never seen in the carpeting world.
A spring-like molecular structure provides our SmartStrand carpet incredible resiliency in addition to stain resistance engineered into the fiber itself. As a result of not having a topical chemical treatment, PTT brings a remarkable softness and natural sensability as well.
This structure also translates to the time-saving cleanability factor as Triexta drys faster than nylon carpet fibers. And with a household full of responsibilities, it's nice to know that some chores can be effectively minimized.
Triexta's exceptional abilities extend to outstanding colorfastness as well; SmartStrand is continuously praised for its resistance to fading from UV light, sunlight, and ozone.
SmartStrand with DuPont Sorona represents the most advanced technology in carpeting over the last 20 years. Soft enough for your bedroom, durable enough for your living room, look no further for your home's perfect finishing touch.
