Shaw So Soft

One of Shaw's most touted carpets is the EverTouch carpet series. This line of carpets was designed using what Shaw deems to be "revolutionary" carpet fiber that makes the carpets softer than other fibers. The fibers are made of fine-denier filaments. The smaller these filaments are, the softer the carpet is.

Just because this carpet is soft doesn't mean that it's weak. Shaw carpets wanted customers to able to use this carpet throughout the house so the company made sure that it could withstand some wear and tear. Shaw carpet did several tests on the durability of this carpet type before putting on the market. What Shaw carpet found was that EverSoft is as durable or more durable than its nylon-made counterparts.

EverSoft carpets usually come with Shaw carpet's SoftBac Platinum, which uses stain and soil resistant treatment to protect the carpet. This stain resistance product has been recognized nationally as one of the best carpet stain products on the market. This product doesn't have to be used with the EverSoft line. It can be used on other carpet types as well.

Go Green with Shaw

One nice thing about Shaw carpets is that the company does its best to look after the environment. Synthetic carpet and the materials used to lay carpet do not decompose easily. This is because these materials are man made and do not come from the earth.

Shaw carpets has an Evergreen Nylon Recycling facility in Georgia where it recycles Nylon 6 carpets. The recycled product is used to produce new carpets. This process helps reduce the number of carpets and synthetic materials clogging up the country's landfills. Shaw carpets collects carpets from all over the country and sends them to this facility for recycling.
