Envirobac

What is Envirobac?

Envirobac is a highly advanced secondary backing system for tufted carpet, pioneered by Brockway Carpets Limited.

Conventional latex is replaced by polymer granules to adhere the secondary backing to the primary backing, with the following benefits:

• The entire manufacturing process is effluent free and has no harmful emissions, resulting in less impact on the environment.
• Carpets can be incinerated after use without toxic emissions being released to the atmosphere, creating the potential to reclaim energy from the carpet at the end of its life.
• The carpet is lighter in total weight and is therefore easier and potentially cheaper to transport than traditional carpets.
• The carpet is crease resistant, making it easier to manoeuvre in awkward fitting locations.
• In cold temperatures the carpet remains soft, flexible and easy to fit.
• Lamination and tuft anchorage properties are better than traditionally backed carpets.
