Triexta carpet problems.

Triexta fiber has become very popular in the last few years. The primary reason for triexta s high level of stain resistance is that the fiber is hydrophobic meaning that it does not absorb moisture. Nylon has been used in carpeting since the mid 1950s so it has several decades of use to support its reputation of durability. Triexta has actually been used in the clothing industry longer than it has been used in the carpet industry in the clothing industry triexta uses the tag line dry fit to reflect the non absorbent properties of the fiber.

The triexta carpet was totally cleaned with just hot water extraction. It is very stain and fade resistant. But remember no carpet is completely stain proof. The triexta carpet fiber took almost twenty years to develop specifically as a carpet fiber.

While related to polyester the federal trade commission recognized it as a unique fiber in 2009. Triexta carpet is engineered to resist stains not on its coating but within its very fiber. Sorona has permanent stain resistance that is engineered into the fiber and will never wear or wash off. The difficulty in making a true comparison between the two fibers lies in triexta s relative youth.
