Milliken's textile research center, the largest in the world, developed 'Carpets for Extreme Conditions' (cXc™) specifically for healthcare environments. Available in both modular and broadloom formats, cXc™ carpets address a broad range of performance concerns:
Indoor Air Quality: All Milliken carpets are certified Green Label Plus for IAQ by The Carpet and Rug Institute. Adhesives used during installation can be eliminated by using TractionBack®, a high-friction coating that emits no VOCs. The MilliCare® dry carpet maintenance system further reduces VOCs.
Durability: Carpets are rated for severe wear under Appearance Retention standards of the Carpet & Rug Institute. cXc™ carpets have been proven to have a longer usable life and outperform other carpets.
Stain and Soil Resistance: MilliGuard® provides stain protection and soil resistance, ColorSeal™ protects against bleach, and INVISTA's DuraTech® enhances soil-release properties.
Roller Mobility: Milliken's PerformaBac™, dense polyurethane backing together with the tight, dense carpet construction, has been independently tested and outperforms other carpets for roller mobility.
Moisture Barrier: cXc's™ moisture barrier passes the British Spill Test and dynamic impact test. A transparent, moisture-proof seam sealer completes the seal.
Antimicrobial: AlphaSan® is incorporated for permanent protection from bacteria growth.
Warranties: cXc™ carpets are covered by the most comprehensive package in the industry, including 14 lifetime warranties.
