Duro Textiles launches protective Defense line

Defense solutions work for most indoor, outdoor, commercial and residential applications

-- Casual Living, 2/6/2008 11:13:00 AM

Duro Textiles, a leader in providing technical textile and sourcing solutions to its customers, has introduced its newest technology, Defense, a complete line of protective solutions for residential and commercial fabrics.

The Defense line provides protection from harmful man-made and environmental threats such as UV rays, mildew, stains and wear. Consisting of five individual solutions that can be used alone or in any combination, Defense minimizes impact to the fabric’s hand and appearance while providing unparalleled performance.

* Solar Defense   The highlight of the Defense line, Solar Defense provides printed fabrics with outstanding sun exposure resistance (many colors currently in excess of 1,500 hours and approaching 2,000 hours). Performing much better than typical print products, Solar Defense creates new and unlimited opportunities for outdoor products.

* Nano Defense   Able to exceed 300 hours of U.S. Coast Guard xenon weathering – the same test methods used on personal flotation devices by Underwriters Laboratories – Nano Defense provides water and stain repellency from foods and beverages.

* Wear Defense   Far exceeding industry testing standards (Taber and Wyzenbeek), Wear Defense protects printed and solid fabrics with a proprietary system designed to optimize abrasion resistance. 

* Mildew Defense   Providing superior anti-microbial protection, Mildew Defense protects against mildew, bacterial and fungal growth and eliminates odor formation. Even if fabrics are stored slightly damp or exposed to weather, Mildew Defense maintains its effectiveness.

* Breach Defense   Able to pass stringent Suter Water Column tests, Breach Defense creates exceptional barrier protection. By preventing water and other liquids from penetrating the fabric, cushions stay dry and comfortable.

To achieve all-around protection, Duro offers Ultimate Defense - all five solutions combined. 

Defense solutions are perfect for most indoor, outdoor, commercial and residential applications.  As well, they do not negatively affect industry fire resistance tests for upholstery (UFAC & Cal 117), and they are safe for families and pets.
