Attached
Cushion Support for Commercial Carpet Performance
Foot
traffic, roller traffic, tracked-in material from the outdoors
... many factors can affect a carpet's performance. KangaTRAC
can improve a carpet's ability to withstand heavy traffic loads,
constant wear and harsh cleaning - and still keep looking and
feeling great. A dense polyurethane commercial grade attached
cushion, KangaTRAC offers the support your commercial
carpet needs for lasting performance.
A dense polyurethane commercial grade cushion applied to the
back of carpet during the manufacturing process, KangaTRAC is
specially engineered to support the demands faced by commercial
carpets. Backed by over a decade of research and testing, and
proven in countless installations, KangaTRAC offers the
support your commercial carpet needs for solid performance.
OPTIMUM
PERFORMANCE
KangaTRAC's
patented backing systems strengthen tuft bind and minimize edge
ravel, because the backing is chemically and mechanically bonded
to the carpet. KangaTRAC is an integral part of the total
floor covering product.
COMFORT
KangaTRAC
premium attached cushion gives resiliency and comfort underfoot,
even in areas of heavy foot and roller traffic. Advanced polyurethane
technology keeps KangaTRAC from "bottoming out",
providing years of superior support.
DELAMINATION
& WRINKLES
By forming a secure bond with carpet
fibers during the manufacturing process, KangaTRAC counteracts
the rigors of daily wear, greatly strengthening most carpets'
resistance to edge ravel and delamination. KangaTRAC
also minimizes wrinkles by absorbing impact shock, supporting
surface fibers, and stabilizing the carpet composite.
WEARABILITY
The repeated pounding of constant
traffic can leave its mark on carpet face fibers. KangaTRAC's
dense cushion gives the proper support to deflect traffic impacts.
It helps carpet to retain its appearance and texture, minimizing
early signs of wear and the need for premature replacement.
DIMENSIONAL
STABILITY
KangaTRAC’ s
unique "relaxed technology" provides added strength
and stability to help prevent carpet bowing, skewing and rippling.
And since carpets with KangaTRAC are glued directly to
the floor, many installation problems can be avoided.
MOISTURE
RESISTANCE
KangaTRAC
resists moisture penetration, keeping spills at the surface
for fast, effective clean-up.
INSTALLATION
Direct
glue down installations are easy with carpets backed by KangaTRAC.
Use a premium quality, multi-purpose adhesive and follow manufacturer’s
specifications. With KangaTRAC's secure bond, seams can
be precisely cut and edge ravel minimized.
REMOVAL
A
unique outer layer or "skin" makes carpet backed with
KangaTRAC easier and cleaner to remove than other flooring
products. If using a releasable adhesive, removal is even faster.
THE
SMART BUSINESS DECISION
Add value to your commercial carpet by
adding KangaTRAC attached premium polyurethane cushion.
Improved acoustics, better insulation, and enhanced moisture
resistance are all benefits of this unique commercial carpet
backing system.

TYPICAL
PROPERTIES
Typical
properties are derived from averages under standard manufacturing
tolerances and are affected by carpet fiber, weight, construction,
humidity and temperature. These properties may vary within normal
industry tolerances. Performance is not affected by such variances.
