Wayn-Tex, Colbond join forces to create Stabilok backings

Through a joint partnership, Wayn-Tex Inc. and Colbond Nonwovens have produced Stabilok, a combination of woven and nonwoven primary carpet backings designed to prevent side-match problems in patterned graphics carpet. Stabilok was developed to eliminate the potential bowing and/or skewing that occasionally develops during the tufting, dyeing and finishing processes in the broadloom industry, the company says.
