This method extends carpet lifespan and maintains appearance for businesses in Tampa Bay and West Central Florida.
Encapsulation products
Releasit encapsulation products represent industry-leading solutions for commercial carpet care. These environmentally friendly detergents use polymer technology to safely capture soil particles, preventing re-deposition. The formulation minimizes environmental impact through carefully selected raw ingredients that work synergistically for optimal cleaning performance without compromising effectiveness.
