Parents are convenience-driven in the Household
Care category and are more willing than
non-parents to pay more for packaging that
adds convenience and simplifies their busy
lives, such as packaging that makes it easier
to measure out product, noted Mintel. For
help with baby, Angel of Mine Baby Room

odors with a baby-powder-fresh fragrance. The

Aerosol grade Karpetcryl
offers rug protection
Fiber-Shield Industries Inc., supplier of specialty protection products and
related materials, has launched a super-hydrophobic carpet and rug treatment—
Karpetcryl— which offers long-lasting protection from damaging
household stains such as wine,
coffee and those caused by pet
accidents.
Karpetcryl—available in an
aerosol grade—is effective and
safe on all leading materials
used today, including wool, nylon
and modern polymers, according
to Manny Vickers, President
& Co-Founder of Fiber-Shield
Industries. Customizable and safe, all super hydrophobic products made by
Fiber-Shield contain no PFOs, PFOAs or PBDEs. The new protection comes
at a good time for the carpet and rug industry, given 4.5% annual growth
and global sales expected to reach $40 billion by 2020, according to recent
reports by Global Industry Analysts and The Freedonia Group. Karpetcryl
therefore holds an appeal for contractors, carpet and rug retail stores, installers
and interior designers, said Vickers, who added that super-hydrophobic
coatings cause an almost imperceptibly thin layer of air to form on top of a
rug or carpet surface. They are difficult to wet because they cause liquids to
aggregate and form beads that sit on the surface and are not absorbed by
the rug fibers and, therefore, easily wiped away.
