Antimicrobial Preservative
• The preservative must be registered with the

manufacturing process, not topically applied to
the carpet fibres.
• The preservative must not be metallic – or
halogens - based (no zinc, copper, tin, chlorine,

bacterial growth when tested per the ASTM
E2471 Standard Test Method, and meet the
AATCC method 174 Parts II and III.
• The antimicrobial treated carpet must maintain,
for the warranted life of the carpet, a minimum
of 90% reduction of the microorganisms and be
environmentally responsible.

than 10% by weight in 15 years.
• No delamination for a period not less than
15 years.
