AZO Berber 1400
Azo Berber 1400 Carpet and Module is an indoor-outdoor berber pattern industrial flooring product designed for medium commercial traffic. Berber 1400 resists UV, pool chemicals, salt water and is suitable for commercial entrances. The product has a breathable water permeable backing.
Manufacturing Technology
AZO Berber 1400 is manufactured as a proprietary Fiber V-loop double needled 3/8" gauge berber construction from blended 100% heavy denier (18-240 d.p.f.) solution colored branded ASOTA olefin fibers, in a UV light fade- and chemical and mildew resistant product. The materials have a primary latex backing that extends to the middle of the carpet, but shall not extend to the pile fiber. For better crush resistance and clean-ability the carpet shall not have a latex or acrylic finish impregnated face fiber so as to mask minimum presence of heavy denier fibers and lack of needling density.
A proprietary secondary backing is blended from natural and ground recycled rubber and penetrates into half the total thickness to make the carpet water permeable.
