FIBER-SEAL - More Than Just Fabric Protection

Fiber-Seal is much more than just a fabric protection service company. In 1971, consumers were just beginning to embrace the concept of fabric protection. It was an innovative product that could be applied to upholstery fabrics, carpeting, and rugs, which would repel liquids and keep fibers cleaner longer—without changing the feel, look, color or texture! Other protective fabric treatments were available in the marketplace at that time, however, problems were not always prevented and stains were not as easily removed as expected. In other words, consumers were left to fend for themselves whenever stains or soils occurred. No one was there to help.

Fiber-Seal saw a need for a specialized company and added local Service Centers as a more convenient way to get our great stain-resistant products into consumers' homes. In addition, having local Service Centers assured that for complimentary spot cleaning, help was just a phone call away. In an unprecedented move, Fiber-Seal promises service calls at NO EXTRA CHARGE. Even today, that concept remains as part of our service policy!

The Value of the Fiber-Seal Network

Today, we have 80 territories covered nationwide, committed to the concept of combining eco-responsible fabric protection products with first-class service. Clients can enjoy their beautiful homes and offices without worrying about pets, messy kids, and boardroom luncheons. Each Service Center is locally owned, employing consultants and technicians who are your neighbors and friends. Members of the Fiber-Seal network share research, upholstery and carpet cleaning expertise, furniture protection tips, information about the newest fabrics and carpeting, and other knowledge that benefits clients every day in every service we provide.

Protecting Your Fabrics, Family, and the Environment

At Fiber-Seal, we consider product safety a top priority and take extra measures to make sure every protective treatment and spotting aid that is applied in your home is safe for your fabrics, family, and pets.
