4 BETTER INNOVATION Your phone isn t the only technology that has improved in the past 50 years! We live in a world of new technology and constant innovation. Our phones have become smart, our vehicles efficient, and our television is in high definition. Innovation is a necessity to satisfy customers' ongoing demands for style, convenience, and performance. The same is true for flooring. No one uses phone technology from 50 years ago, so why settle for carpet made with 50 year old fibre technology as nylon is? Smartstrand IQ150 is the latest advancement in high performance carpet fibre on the market today. Smartstrand IQ150 is the latest innovation in carpet fibre developed by Mohawk. Mohawk Industries is one of the world's largest floor coverings manufacturers, and is a leading producer of carpet yarn. Mohawk has a 125 year history of excellence in the floor covering industry. Their dedication to product innovation and development sets them apart from all other manufacturers around the world. BETTER CHOICES Unlike standard carpet ranges, Smartstrand IQ150 comes with a pallet of over 20 colours in most ranges, with some having 60. This unbelievable range of colour provides the customer with the opportunity to select a customised colour solution which meets their exact needs. This unique point of difference adds to the carpet s appeal, and provides an extra advantage over other carpet ranges. Spectacular colours and a

6 BETTER STAIN PROTECTION Smartstrand IQ150 fibres are spun from non absorbing IQ polymers, so the actual fibre is the stain resistor, and thus the stain resistance will last the life of the carpet. This protection allows tough stains such as mustard and red wine, to be removed simply with warm water. The fibre even resists stains caused by pets and discoloration from bleach. Smartstrand IQ150 dries even faster than nylon. Most stains can be removed with hot water extraction and the carpet dries quickly. So, on those occasions when professional cleaning is needed, you and your family will be back on your carpet in no time. BETTER DURABILITY Mohawk subjects its carpets to the most thorough testing and Smartstrand IQ150 exceeds all standards. The durability of Smartstrand IQ150 is built into its very DNA; the fibre features a unique, spring-like molecule that helps the carpet bounce back for better crush resistance and resiliency. If 20,000 kg of elephants can t damage the carpet, what chance does your family have? BETTER SOFTNESS Smartstrand IQ150 carpet is exceptionally soft because it is chemical-free - it bends easily and rebounds quickly, so it feels great every time you touch it. There is nothing like a beautiful, luxurious carpet to bring warmth to your household. Go ahead and experience it for yourself. Take a step. Go ahead. Take
