• Summary.
Did you know…?
• “Nylon” was first produced in 1935 by DuPont.
• DuPont originally intended to call it "No-Run”.
• Nylon was intended to replace silk.
• Nylon is now one of the most commonly used
plastics.
Who is Ontera?Step Outside the Square
• One of Australasia’s best known makers of
carpet tiles.
• Established in 1985.
• Ontera is part of Cavalier Corporation.
• And New Zealand owned.
Design TechnologyCustom Designs
• Customised designs are our specialty.
• The Millitron® design technology can create
unique carpet designs.
• We have a dedicated in house design studio at
your service.
Design TechnologyWhat is Ontera’s Millitron® Technology?
• Millitron® dyeing injects colour deep into the
carpet pile.
• We guarantee the colour will not wear off, for
15 years.
Design TechnologyWhat is Ontera’s Millitron® Technology?
• You can literally begin designing from a blank
canvas.
• Unlimited design potential.
• We can match any colour.
Design TechnologyWhat is Ontera’s Millitron® Technology?
• Millitron® custom designs are stored digitally.
• We guarantee the design is available for a life
time.

Environmental Sustainability A step ahead for the environment
• Independently proven.
• Environmental Choice New Zealand certification.
• Maximum Green Star credit points.
• Guaranteed take back of Ontera carpet tiles at
the end of their useful life.
• Our Earthplus® reuse program has reused
70,000m2 (340 tonnes) of used carpet tiles so far.
• 7 Year Warranty for their second life (22 Year
total).

• First reuse, then recycle.
• Post consumer recycled PVC is reused in our tile’s
backing.
• Post consumer recycled Nylon and fibreglass is sold to
foam manufacturers.
• Our loop pile tiles contain a minimum of 37% post
consumer recycled content.
• Our cut pile tiles contain a minimum of 25% post
consumer recycled content.
• Not all nylons are born equal
• Their cross-section can look like this…..”trilobals”
Nylon and Tile TechnologyHow does Nylon’s shape affect performance?
• The profile of Nylon yarn can have a significant
affect on carpet performance.
• Nylon fibre’s shape can vary enormously.
Nylon and Tile TechnologyHow does Nylon’s shape affect performance?
• A thinner trilobal shape means:– A larger surface area to stain. – A much higher propensity to stain.– Larger “air pockets” to trap dirt. – The carpet is harder to clean– The lobes break, causing fraying and poor
appearance retention.
Nylon and Tile TechnologyHow does Nylon’s shape affect performance?
• Why are different yarn structures used?– Cost – Yarn is paid for by weight and not by
volume. – For a better “feel”, a yarn full of air pockets
feels a lot softer to the touch and may appear to be more desirable….
– Until you walk on it!!!
Nylon and Tile TechnologyHow does Nylon’s shape affect performance?
• Ontera only utilises Nylon yarn with a denser trilobal shape :
Nylon and Tile TechnologyHow does Nylon’s shape affect performance?
• There are two types of Nylon available, Type 6.6 and Type 6.
• Type 6.6 Nylon is: – Denser.– Harder to stain.– Will wear better over time.– Holds its appearance longer.
• Ontera only uses Type 6,6 Nylon.
Nylon and Tile TechnologyNylon Type 6.6 versus Type 6
• Double fibreglass reinforced backing.
• Retains the tiles dimensional stability.
• No shrinking, cupping or curling.
• Covered by a 15 Year dimensional stability
warranty.
Nylon and Tile TechnologyStability of the backing
