Shaw and Encap

Kevin Pearson  

The guy I used to work for is in a college town. He does alot of carpet cleaning for the university and has for years. On Monday the university brought in Shaw industries to talk to the custodial staff and vendors about how to care for their carpet. Shaw told them that the only other system they recommend using besides HWE is the Cimex. They even told them about Releasit and how good of a product it was. They also liked one or two other encapsulating cleaners, but the tech I talked to about this could not remember their names. One of the things Shaw stressed to the custodial staff was that they should pay more attention to vacuuming. Vacuuming should be a systematic program just like the carpet cleaning program.

Just thought ya'll might like to hear what Shaw is saying.

Great info Kevin thanks for the post! I actually have the Shaw Maintenance Brochure
where it says "Low moisture encapsulation
systems efficiently improve carpet appearance with limited down time for cleaning and drying. The cleaning agent R2Xtra, or another encapsulating cleaner certified by the Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) Seal of Approval Program, is applied and mechanically agitated into the carpet pile, allowed to dry, then vacuumed to remove the
encapsulated soil. In conjunction with scheduled hot water extraction, the low moisture method helps maintain premium carpet appearance."
However they don't recommend Bonnet cleaning as it can "distort fibers".
I can send you a email copy if you want in pdf format.
