Prochem is again ahead of environmental legislation with a new product name and an important formulation revision to its long-standing carpet and upholstery protector.

B130 Fluoroseal CF stain protector has a new name B130 Aqua Protect CF, to reflect the formulation change in the product.

This newly formulated dual-function carpet & upholstery protector is based
on fluorine free water repellent technology for durable soil and stain
resistance, effective against water-based products, such as coffee, tea, wine and similar spills.

“Restrictions are being placed on polyfluorinated-based products, now
classed as “forever chemicals” (meaning they resist degradation due to the strong carbon-fluorine bonds) and so are categorised as an environmental hazard, “says Prochem Chemical Product Manager, Parag Patel.

“Changes in regulations are due to come into effect in the next two years, but we’re being proactive and making the change to help stop adding PFAs to the environment.”
