WHATASHIELD, the Pinnacle of Textile Innovation
PFAS/PFOA (FLUOROCARBON) FREE
Welcome to the WHATASHIELD program – where textile care meets unparalleled performance and a company-friendly experience. We pride ourselves on offering a PFAS-free solution that sets a new standard in fabric care. At WHATASHIELD, we're not just providing a product; we're delivering an experience that prioritizes your needs. Join us on a journey where innovation, sustainability, and exceptional performance converge, creating a textile care experience that is truly unmatched. Elevate your standards with WHATASHIELD – where performance meets integrity, and every thread tells a story of excellence.
WHATASHIELD stands as the epitome of commercial fabric protection, offering a multifaceted approach to safeguarding textiles. This innovative solution provides:
Hydrophobic Shielding: Resisting water and moisture, preventing saturation and potential damage. Woven Fabrics
Hydrophilic Defense: Disrupting the adhesion of stains for efficient cleanability and stain resistance. Non-Woven Fabrics
UV Protection: Shielding against the harmful effects of UV rays, preserving fabric color and integrity. Woven and Non-Woven Fabrics
Enhanced Tensile, Seam, and Abrasion Strength: Strengthening fabrics to withstand wear and tear, ensuring longevity. Woven and Non-Woven Fabrics
Flame Resistant (FR) Improvement: Elevating safety standards with enhanced flame resistant characteristics for commercial textiles. Woven and Non-Woven Fabrics
VOC and Odor Elimination: Effectively reducing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and Odors for improved air quality. Woven and Non-Woven Fabrics
Protect Projects/Fabrics from the 7 Families of Cleaners: WHATASHIELD protects fabrics from the degradation of color and tensile from harmful cleaning products. Next, WHATASHIELD durability and performance is not changed from the 7 families of cleaners being used on treated fabrics.
Puncture Resistance (SPIKESHIELD): Fortifying against punctures and abrasions for increased durability.
With these comprehensive protections, WHATASHIELD ensures that commercial fabrics not only meet industry standards but surpass them, setting a new benchmark in textile care and longevity.
WHATASHIELD MEETS AND EXCEEDS THE HIGHEST STANDARDS
NSF GREEN CHEMISTRY CERTIFICATION
National Science Foundation Green Chemistry Certified. WHATASHIELD is PFAS, PFOA, and Fluorocarbon Free and is fully tested for Green Chemistry by NSF (EPA sanctioned).
HEALTHIER BUILDING INITIATIVE
WHATASHIELD is proud to support the Healthier Building Initiative creating better air quality by reducing VOC’s and producing a “Better Breath to Breathe”.
7 FAMILIES OF CLEANERS APPROVED
WHATASHIELD protects fabric from the 7 families of cleaners (used as directed) degradation. Protecting color and tensile WHATASHIELD extends the Beauty of Fabrics.
LIGHTSHIELD Coating for Woven Fabric
creating a hydrophobic water repellency
MOISTURESHIELD Backing for Woven and Non-Woven Fabrics
preventing moisture to the cushion
Ultimate in Fabric Protection
PFAS, PFOA, AND FLUOROCARBON FREE
These forever chemicals are horrible for human and animal health. WHATASHIELD does not use PFAS, PFOA, or Fluorocarbon chemistry in any of its finish coatings or backings.
NEW TECHNOLOGY WITH WHATASHIELD
if repellency alone were the solution to clean-ability, our current textile challenges would be resolved. WHATASHIELD goes beyond traditional repellency, introducing a comprehensive approach that disrupts stains, enhances durability, and sustainability.
PROP65 COMPLIANCY
WHATASHIELD is a bound chemistry that is in compliance with PROP65 guidelines. Unbound chemistry can cause issues for human and animal health. WHATASHIELD is proud to be PROP65 compliant.
EPA DESIGNED FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
WHATASHIELD has been certified by the EPA to exceed the standards for DESIGNED FOR THE ENVIRONMENT (DFE).
NO FLAME RETARDANTS (HALOGENATED)
WHATASHIELD has no halogenated flame retardants (PBDE). Help create a better environment for everyone with WHATASHIELD coated fabrics.
MORE SUSTAINABLE WORLD (MSW)
WHATASHIELD is proud to support the More Sustainable World Initiative. Creating more sustainability through UV protection, Tensile, Seam, and Abrasion Strength Improvements extending the life of fabrics.
