SHIELD – Advanced Carpet & Fabric Protector

Invisible Protection. Powerful Defence.

SHIELD is a professional, water-based carpet and fabric protector developed to help defend freshly cleaned fibres against accidental spills, staining, everyday dirt and rapid re-soiling.

Its fluorocarbon-free formulation provides effective, long-lasting protection without leaving a heavy coating or noticeably changing the natural appearance or feel of the treated fibres.

Once applied, SHIELD creates an invisible protective barrier around the fibres, helping liquids bead on the surface rather than immediately soaking into the material.

This gives valuable extra time to deal with accidental spills before they penetrate deeper into the fibres and become difficult stains.

Water-based. Fluorocarbon-free. No heavy coating. Just professional protection that works.

Protection You Can See

One of SHIELD’s biggest selling points is how easily its performance can be demonstrated.

Once correctly applied and fully cured, liquids are less likely to soak immediately into the treated fibres. Instead, spills can bead on the surface, providing additional time for them to be carefully blotted away.

For professional cleaners, this makes SHIELD an excellent add-on service because customers can actually see the protection working.

Made for Everyday Life

A freshly cleaned carpet or sofa doesn’t stay untouched for long.

Drinks get knocked over. Food gets dropped. Pets climb onto furniture. Shoes bring dirt inside.

SHIELD is designed for exactly that.

Its water-based, fluorocarbon-free formulation adds an additional layer of protection to freshly cleaned fibres, helping defend against the everyday accidents and contamination that occur in real homes and businesses.

SHIELD can help protect against:

• Drink spillages
• Food contamination
• Everyday staining
• General household dirt
• Traffic-related soiling
• Rapid re-soiling
• Water-based accidental spills

More Than Just Carpet Protection

SHIELD can be used across a wide range of suitable textile surfaces, including:

• Carpets
• Upholstery
• Rugs
• Fabric dining chairs
• Shoes
• Household fabrics
• Other suitable natural and synthetic fibres

Always pre-test before full application.

Cleaned Today. Protected for Tomorrow.

Professional cleaning deals with the dirt and contamination already present.

SHIELD helps protect against what comes next.

By applying SHIELD following professional cleaning, you’re giving freshly cleaned carpets and upholstery an additional line of defence against future spills and everyday contamination.

The protective treatment can also help make future maintenance cleaning easier by reducing the ability of soil to become strongly attached to the fibres.

Application

SHIELD is supplied ready to use and should be applied neat.

SHIELD can be applied to wet or dry fibres.

Mist the product evenly across the surface, ensuring consistent coverage.

Following application, groom or brush SHIELD through the fibres in two opposing directions to ensure even distribution.

For example:

North to South → East to West

Allow the treated surface to dry thoroughly before normal use.

Long-Lasting Protection

When correctly applied, SHIELD can provide protection for up to 12 months, depending on fibre type, usage, traffic levels and maintenance.

High-traffic areas and surfaces subjected to frequent cleaning may require more regular reapplication.

Drying & Curing

SHIELD’s protective properties develop as the treated fibres dry.

Typical curing times can range from approximately 30 minutes to 24 hours, depending on:

• Fibre type
• Application rate
• Temperature
• Ventilation
• Humidity

For maximum performance, allow the treated area to dry completely.

Add Protection to Every Clean

SHIELD gives professional cleaners an easy way to offer customers something beyond the initial clean.

Clean the carpet or upholstery. Apply SHIELD. Demonstrate the protection.

It’s a simple additional service that provides genuine added value for the customer while creating an additional revenue opportunity for the professional cleaner.

CLEAN IT. PROTECT IT. SHIELD IT.
