Invista Website Aimed at School Facility Managers

Atlanta, GA, April 21, 2009--Fiber maker Invista said that it has launched a website, antron.net/recovery, designed to help school facility managers identify and specify carpet for school renovations, as they look to utilize funding available through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).

On the website, users will find tools to aid in the selection of carpets that help meet sustainable and high-performance school criteria. The firm is also touting its Antron fiber, which is used by 20 commercial carpet mills, as superior for school applications.

Bobby Berrier, vice president commercial interiors for Invista, said,  “We created antron.net/recovery to provide an easy way for school administrators and facility managers to select carpets that will help improve their facilities while contributing to the development of high-performing learning environments.”

Antron.net/recovery provides schools with access to  high-performance carpet specifications, tools that demonstrate the cost effectiveness of carpet selections over time, and a description of potential points that can be earned for sustainability programs.
