FiberLoc™

What is it?
FiberLoc is specially engineered DuPont carpet fiber found in many DuPont STAINMASTER® carpets. FiberLoc™ fibers have the unique ability to lock themselves together when twisted into a carpet tuft allowing the tuft to keep its original shape longer. This prevents texture loss which allows the carpet to keep its original appearance for years.
