Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Fabric protection involves the treatment of fabrics and carpets to provide an invisible barrier against dirt and staining and most importantly facilitates future cleaning.
The protector penetrates the fabric or fibre and on drying forms an invisible barrier within the fibres. The barrier helps to prevent anything spilled onto the treated item from penetrating deep into the fabric and causing a permanent stain.
The way that fabric protectors work is that they have an active ingredient (in our case this is a natural water and stain repellent) that is suspended in a carrying agent. All this carrying agents are used to get the active ingredient to the fabric, this will evaporate after its job is done.
Fabric Protection can be broken down into two types: Solvent Based Fabric protection and Water Based Fabric protection.
Across the world, the major players cover 3M (Scotchgard), SC Johnson (KIWI), RPM International (Guardian), Ultra-Guard, etc.
