Our History: Textile Armor by Ultra Shield!

It’s hard to know where you are going if you don’t know or understand where you have been. At Textile Armor we value our heritage and are incredibly proud of it! Textile Armor’s parent company is Ultra Shield which was established in March of 1987. When Ultra Shield first started, it was the 39^th competitor in the field of fabric protection. Now in 2010, Ultra Shield is thrilled to be the fourth largest company by sales quantity in the United States.

Ultra Shield prides itself on maintaining its quality throughout all of its products. Therefore it manufactures all of its products at the same plant which allows for better quality control. Ultra Shield is constantly striving to stay on the cutting edge of the fabric protection industry, because of this Ultra Shield has invested in market research teams to help discover ways to better their product line. In October of 1991, Ultra Shield became the first fabric protection company to design and develop a water based stain repellent. Ultra Shield is very proud of their success but is continually looking for way to improve upon the success that they have built.

When Textile Armor was first looking to partner with a reputable fabric protection company, there were several things that were of the upmost importance when considering a partnership:

Number one: it was essential to Textile Armor that we partner with a company that had a long history of fabric protection and was willing to stand by their product.

Number two: It was crucial that Textile Armor partner with a company that was constantly striving to improve upon their products and stay on the cutting edge of the fabric protection industry.

Number three: It was vital that Textile Armor partner with a company that had integrity and a willingness to do whatever it takes to please a client.

With Ultra Shield, we found all these qualities and many more. In 2010 we were delighted to announce our partnership with them and look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship for years to come.

Textile Armor-Evolving and Changing!!!

Are you a designer looking for a new and exciting way to add an additional service for your clients? At Textile Armor we are proud to announce the launce of a new designer referral program! At Textile Armor we know and understand that the best referral is word of mouth, so we are offering a new program for designers with a bit of an incentive.

Through the years we have worked with dozens of high end designers who have recommended our product line. While we appreciate their support, we also wanted to solidify our partnership with them. At Textile Armor we have just launched a program that will allow commercial and residential designers to resell our product line and receive a commission.

We are excited about this partnership because it allows us to further distribute our products and also it is also beneficial for the designer in that they can now also provide “after care” for their clients. We feel that this program will greatly enhance the service of any designer and an added extra is that all the designer has to do is simply refer us! We will deliver the product and apply it! There is no need to have a stock room full of Textile Armor’s various fabric, leather and wood protection lines. If you or someone you know is a designer and may be interested in this, please do not hesitate to contact us! We look forward to hearing from you!

Are you in the middle of trying to potty train??

As most any parent will tell you, the time that it takes to potty train your child can be a very frustrating and trying time. There are all the accidents during the day, the running to the bathroom and then of course, the middle of the night wet bed sheets. And then of course, you have to try to figure out a way to get the urine out of the mattress. That perhaps can be one of the most challenging and wearisome feats of them all…

That is where Textile Armor can help! Nothing is more exasperating than 1.) Having to try to not show your frustration to your child (who is trying their very best) 2.) Getting woken up in the middle of the night to change your child’s clothes and clean up the mess 3.) Having to worry about how on earth you are going to get that urine smell out of the mattress!! Well, we can’t really help you with the first two, but we can help you with the third one!

At Textile Armor we have a complete line of mattress protection! Our mattress encasements will protect your mattress from absorbing any urine or any urine smell! At Textile Armor we offer two unique solutions that will help you protect your mattress during the challenging time of potty training!

The first product that we offer is a 10 Year Waterproof Mattress protector. This mattress protector has cotton toweling and is made from terry cloth and has a backing of polyurethane. The combination of these materials allows for the mattress to breathe but will not allow any leakage! We also offer the 20 Year Quilted Waterproof Mattress Pad. This pad will not only serve as a barrier for any sort of leakage, but it will also repel dust from your mattress. It is also made from terry cloth and has a backing of polyurethane.

At Textile Armor we understand that these months can seem like years, and we are here to help you in whatever way we can!

Protect Your Wood for the Holidays!

As we get closer to the holidays, it seemed wise to illuminate a few products by Textile Armor that may help put your mind at ease. The holidays are a wonderful time where we can share quality time with our family, but it can also be stressful. And one of the things that stresses a lot of people out is wondering what kind of toll their house and furniture will take after serving as a landing zone for so many people. In our last blog, we talked about Textile Armor’s leather protection line and how it is able to revitalize old and dried out leather. In this blog, we are going to talk about wood protection!

When having multiple people over for the holidays, individuals are prone to setting their drinks and or plates just about anywhere! Normally this would not be a problem, but if your wood has not been properly protected, the simple act of setting a briefcase or a plate of food on the coffee table can cause permanent scratching. Because of this, Textile Armor has developed a wood protection system that is called “Scratch Guard”. This creates an invisible barrier between your wood and whatever would like to come in contact with it to scratch it! This is an ideal product for anyone who has children, pets or who entertains!

Another product that is very unique to Textile Armor is “Dust Off”, this product actually repels dust! Can you imagine if you didn’t have to dust all the time and if a product actually did the hard work for you??? As wood ages, it loses its natural moisture. For that reason, it is essential to add that moisture back into your furniture. Textile Armor also has a “Cream Polish” that will revitalize and restore your wood back to its original luster and sheen! Don’t let the holidays slide by without protecting your furniture. You have already invested in your furniture, now its time to protect it!
