Anso Nylon is a GREAT Choice
Anso Nylon, Shaw's premier carpet fibre, offers stain resistance and durability in a variety of beautiful styles and colours to bring your design vision to life. It's GREAT in many ways.
- Green: All carpets and area rugs made from this fibre can be recycled at Shaw's Evergreen Nylon Recycling facility. Evergreen enables Shaw to recycle post-consumer carpet back into new carpet over and over again.
- Resilient: Shaw's Anso nylon offers superior resilience over other natural or synthetic fibre.
- Experience: Anso is one of the longest-running and most trusted brands in the flooring industry and has been offering the most extensive warranty package in the industry for more than 40 years.
- Anti-soil: All Anso nylon products are treated with Shaw's pattented R2X stain and soil resistance treatment.
- Tough: Anso nylon carpets are tough. It's what allows all Anso nylon styles to carry the Anso nylon transferable, non-prorated and labour-inclusive lifetime stain and soil and lifetime pet stain warranty. Plus, the products are backed with SoftBac Platinum, a proprietary backing system that offers a no-wrinkle warranty.
When you buy Anso nylon products, you'll know that your carpet is GREAT.
Shaw’s premium branded Anso nylon is also Cradle to Cradle Silver Certified, meaning its design has been evaluated to assess its positive impact on both people and the environment. The Cradle to Cradle certification process looks at a number of factors, including the use of environmentally safe and healthy materials, design for recycling, water and energy efficiency, and social responsibility.
Shaw starts with "the most durable carpet fibres ever made." And then they throw in something extra, like lifetime warranties against stains and soils, and warranties for wear up to 20 years. When it comes to providing long-lasting comfort and style for your home, Shaw carpets are a great choice.
r2x
The patented and exclusive R2X Stain and Soil Resistance system was first introduced in 2001 after years of research and testing. It quickly became the industry's fastest-growing protective carpet treatment. It has been hailed as a new generation in carpet technology and is as much of an innovation today as the first carpet stain and soil treatments were decades ago.
R2X is the industry's most innovative carpet stain and soil repelling system and the product of years of research and testing. Shaw's exclusive R2X system goes beyond conventional repellents that only protect the surface of the carpet. With R2X, carpets are armed with total fibre coverage, offering complete protection from the top to the bottom of the yarn. This total fibre coverage offers unprecedented protection against household spills and everyday soiling. With R2X, spills that reach the base of the yarn don't penetrate and wick back to the top as they do with conventional solutions.
In testing, R2X demonstrated superior carpet stain resistance on two levels. First, it provides better initial protection. Second, it allows more time to react to a problem. Another significant benefit of R2X is its effectiveness with polyester and polypropylene fibres. Most polyester and polypropylene carpets have an inherent tendency to attract soil. Topical soil carpet treatments are only "skin deep," and the limited protection they offer wears away after cleaning or normal wear and tear. In contrast, R2X continues to perform well even after repeated cleanings. The performance of nylon, polyester, and polypropylene treated with ordinary systems begins to diminish. And of course, Shaw's warranty protection ensures customer satisfaction, time after time.
