Stainmaster Owner Koch Industries to Launch Carpet Cleaner Line

New York, NY, September 21, 2016—Koch Industries, a conglomerate owned by billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch, is moving into the household-cleaner business, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Koch is launching a carpet cleaner line that will be sold under the Stainmaster brand. The product is the result of a pairing between two Koch companies: Invista, which makes Stainmaster carpet and upholstery, and Georgia-Pacific.
