Concrobium Carpet Cleaning Shampoo

The company that makes Concrobium Mould Control has now come out with a carpet shampoo. Now I hope it truly is a “shampoo”. Shampoos are still used in our industry-especially when dealing with natural fibers on upholstery and area rugs. The idea is to whip the shampoo up and use the foam of the shampoo. The foam is then lightly agitated into the fabric/yarns and then extracted back out. This allows us to clean using a virtually water free solution and still getting the benefits of quick drying and the power of the cleaning solution.

Why is this exciting for us? Well the product is made of food based ingredients! The only non-toxic product we have been using as a “shampoo” is Ecogent. Ecogent does foam up a bit, but its not really a shampoo.

Our foreman Paul “Stains” McMahon is out there using the product last week and next. We hope to have a report back soon on its effectiveness.
