Syntran® Brand Polymers:
"Polymers for Beautiful Carpets"
Interpolymer produces a complete line of polymers for Carpet Care products that improve the cleanliness and appearance of carpets at a lower total cost. Carpets cleaned with products using Syntran polymers clean easier, resist staining, and stay clean longer...so you don't need to clean as often.
Syntran Carpet Care polymers are designed to impart many different characteristics specific to the type of product in which they are used.
