The Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) has launched a new Seal of Approval program designed to recognize superior carpet cleaning products that pass stringent tests administered by an independent, accredited laboratory. Since August, three products have been awarded the Seal of Approval.
Seal of Approval testing is administered by Professional Testing Laboratory Inc. of Dalton. An experienced panel of technicians tests the performance of two kinds of products: spot removers and pre-spray/in-tank solutions, which may be used in residential, commercial or institutional settings.
