Pet Friendly Flooring Options by Shaw

Luxury Vinyl

Imagine luxury vinyl tile that can be submerged in a tank of water for 10 days, wiped dry with a cloth, then beautifully installed in your home. What you have just imagined is the resilient flooring collection by Shaw called Floorte. A new locking system allows the floors to be completely waterproof. They can also withstand temperature swings from 55 degrees to 85 degrees without shrinking or expanding. These flexible floors can be installed directly over existing flooring with zero need for acclimation. High-definition printing allows Shaw to mimic the look of products such as hardwood, stone, and concrete. Due to this material being more rigid than traditional luxury vinyl tile, it looks and feels more like a solid wood floor.

Carpet

Shaw’s patented and proven LifeGuard carpet protection system shields your carpet well beneath the surface, protecting the entire fiber – from base to tip – against stains. R2X Stain and Soil Resistance Protection goes beyond conventional repellents that only protect the surface. It has a 100% thermoplastic commercial-grade backing, preventing liquids from soaking into the carpet padding and subfloor. By repelling stains, R2X gives you more time to attend to a pet accident, makes cleanup easier, and helps dissipate odors. While topical carpet treatments only provide limited protection that wears away with ordinary use and cleaning, R2X continues to perform well even after repeated cleanings.

Don’t let your furry friend ruin your floors. These solutions from Shaw will help prevent pet accidents from soaking into your carpet backing, padding, and subfloor, providing a healthier and happier home for you and your pet.
