Anso® Nylon - 5 Components That Sets This Brand Apart

Choosing the right flooring is an important decision! It’s an investment you, your family and friends will enjoy for years to come. You want flooring that makes a statement about you. Something all your friends will gush over. At the same time, you want to make a wise decision.

All products made with Anso® nylon are considered GREAT because they possess all five components that set this fiber brand apart from all others.

Why Is Anso® Nylon Important To You?

1. CARPET TO CARPET™: Never needs to go to the Landfill

All Anso® nylon is designed to be recycled and is SCS certified with 25% post-consumer carpet content. Anso® nylon has also been Cradle-to-Cradle™ certified by MBDC.

Shaw recycles more carpet than all others combined...over 100 million pounds in the past 12 months alone.

2. Resiliency:Bounces Back. Nylon is the most resilient carpet fiber.Resilience is the ability of a fiber to resume its original shape after being deformed. Think furniture indentions. Anso® nylon and nylon 6,6 fibers are widely recognized as having the highest resilience of synthetic or natural carpet fibers due to their excellent elastic recovery properties.

3. Assurance: Unbeatable Warranty Coverage Warranted for over 40 years and over a billion of yards of Anso® nylon on floors throughout North America. Anso® nylon was the first and holds the distinction of the longest continuous fiber brand over 40 years. All Anso® nylon styles are certified for performance with comprehensive warranties: transferable, labor included, non-prorated, stairs and hallways included.

4. Advanced Engineering: Resists Soiling Anso® nylon is unsurpassed as a soil resistant fiber. Anso is an acronym for anti-soil created over 40 years ago. Shaw’s patented R2x® (Repellency times 2) combines stain and soil resistance to offer total fiber coverage. Protects after repeated cleanings.

5. 20% Tougher: Shows Less Wear Toughness is measured directly by testing the fiber itself to see how much energy it takes to break the fiber. Toughness is directly related to carpet performance and specifically to abrasion resistance. It requires approximately 20% more energy to break Anso® nylon. Tough and abrasion-resistant Anso® nylon shows far less wear.

Carpet Tip: Contemporary rooms use sleek and tailored carpet. Using Earth tones in the room will insure the mood is warm and inviting.
