Mach 1 from Edward Fields

MACH 1

Introducing Mach 1, a quick-ship carpet program from
Edward Fields
Thanks to the combination of artisanal mechanical tufting
and hand-finishing, the rich textures of Mach 1 are ideal for
aviation projects.
Mach 1 has been engineered for quick delivery:
> In-stock Yarn - To shave production time, we have
chosen 30 colors to pre-dye and stock, ready to be
taken off the shelf for your project.
> Machine-tufted Construction - All ten Mach 1 designs
are ready to tuft at the push of a button using our
proprietary, state-of-the-art tufting technology.
> Made in the USA - Fabricated and shipped from our
own facility in the state of Georgia, Mach 1 delivers
faster.
Production Sizes
Mach 1 can be ordered in piece sizes up to 12’ x 31’.
Color Selection
Set aside specifically for the Mach 1 program, our 100% New
Zealand wool has been pre-dyed and stocked in 30 colors.
Lead Time
Using existing designs and the Mach 1 pre-stocked yarn
offering, production time can be as fast as four weeks.

Reasonable Expectations
Edward Fields uses wool from New Zealand, one of the
finest natural fibers in the textile industry. However, certain
variations of natural yarns may present themselves, none
of which are considered manufacturing defects. A technical
bulletin encompassing all natural occurrences can be found
at the Carpet and Rug Institute website at carpet-rug.org.
Fluffing & Shedding - New wool carpets may naturally fluff or
shed short fibers. Frequent vacuuming, up to twice per week,
is suggested up to six months after installation.
Sprouting - Occasionally, tufts will dislodge from the backing
of the carpet. These loose ends should simply be trimmed
flush with the surrounding surface pile with sharp scissors.
Excessive sprouting is often caused by wheels of luggage
carts, casters, or inadequate or improper use of vacuums,
and is not considered a manufacturing defect.
Shading (Watermarking, Pooling, Pile Reversal) - Shading
is caused by the different effects of light playing off the
sides of fibers versus their cut ends. Shading is a normal
phenomenon for any cut pile carpet made from any type of
yarn. It does not indicate wear, fault in manufacturing, flaw
in materials or a combination.
Fading - Some oxidation of dyes is natural, especially when a
carpet is exposed to sunlight. This is not considered a defect
of either manufacturing or materials.
Fuzzing - Fuzzing is caused by wheels of luggage carts,
casters, and inadequate or improper use of vacuums. Use of
a vacuum with a beater bar or with harsh brushes can also
cause fuzzing on a wool loop pile carpet.
Carpet Maintenance Tips
Preventative Measures - Use walk-off mats to keep dirt off
carpets, and clean the mats more frequently than the carpet.
Replace air filters regularly, according to manufacturer’s
guidelines, and inspect air ducts often for contaminant
build-up.
Vacuuming - Carpet must be vacuumed routinely. This is
considered the most important part of any maintenance
program.
Maintenance Cleaning - Restorative measures must be taken
at regular intervals, at least every 12 to 18 months or more
frequently for heavy-use areas, by a professional carpet
cleaning company.
Treatment of Spots and Spills - Check for spots daily and
treat immediately – the longer the delay, the higher the
probability for a permanent stain.
> Blot liquids with a dry, white, absorbent cloth. Do
not scrub the area. Continue to blot until the area is
essentially dry.
> Gently scrape up semi-solids with a rounded spoon
and vacuum. Do not add moisture.
> Remove spots and stains with water first. The spill may
be simply removed with just water.
> When using stain removal cleaners, follow the
manufacturer’s recommendations for use, including
proper ventilation.
