Soil resistance, structure and longevity – It’s in the DNA
INVISTA, maker of Antron® carpet fibre, has used its latest technology to develop Antron® Lumena DNA™, a break-through in high-performance carpet fibre for the commercial sector.
Developed to answer a demand for fibres that prolong the lifecycle, maintenance and looks of carpets, INVISTA used its knowledge of polyamide type 6.6, coupled with an enviable understanding of structure and manufacturing processes to create Antron® Lumena DNA™, a carpet fibre that provides easy maintenance, stain, fade and soil resistance and a long life.
The polyamide type 6.6 construction of Antron® Lumena DNA™ brings a tight and strong molecular structure to make it hardwearing with high appearance retention. This same structure also makes it hard for dirt to stick and stains to permeate into its fibres. Built-in soil protection negates the need for costly and repeat carpet treatments and creates a cleaner indoor environment.
The structure of Antron® Lumena DNA™ uses the best in Antron’s multi-hollow core light diffusion technology to enable soil hiding capability. A broad spectrum of 300 colour options, from rich neutrals and vibrant accents is introduced during the manufacturing stage resulting in permanent stain and fade resistant colour.
Stephan Hanke INVISTA Antron carpet fibre explains, “Polyamide 6.6 brings the benefits of durability and good looks, combined with our unique Antron® Lumena DNA™cross-section, solution-dying and built-in soil resistance to create a huge step in fibre development for the commercial carpet sector.”
Antron® Lumena DNA™ is the first fibre to offer permanent, built-in soil protection with ease of maintenance and reduction in total cost of ownership and this clever fibre means carpets can stay beautiful for their entire lifecycle.
