Moncton, NB
Choosing the right carpet can feel overwhelming. You want something soft, stylish, and tough enough to stand up to daily life. That’s where SmartStrand carpet comes in. At our carpet stores in Dartmouth, NS, and Moncton, NB, we help homeowners find flooring that fits their lifestyle, and SmartStrand is a top choice. If you’ve heard the name but aren’t sure what makes it special, this guide breaks it all down. We’ll cover how it’s made, why it lasts, and why it’s a smart choice for any room in your home.
What is SmartStrand carpet?
SmartStrand is a high-performance carpet fiber developed by Mohawk. Unlike traditional nylon or polyester, SmartStrand is made with a unique fiber called Triexta. It combines softness with built-in stain protection, all without needing harsh chemical treatments. The result? A carpet that’s incredibly durable, easy to clean, and still soft underfoot.
You’ll feel the difference the moment you touch it. It’s plush and comfortable, yet it resists crushing and matting even in high-traffic areas. Whether it’s a cozy family room or a busy hallway, SmartStrand holds up.
Built-in stain protection you can count on
One of SmartStrand's most talked-about features is its permanent stain resistance. It isn’t sprayed on or added after the fact; it’s part of the fiber itself. That means it doesn’t wear off over time.
Spill red wine? No panic. Muddy footprints after soccer practice? Not a problem. Most messes come out with warm water. There is no need for heavy-duty cleaners or panic scrubbing. This makes it ideal for homes with kids, pets, or messy hobbies.
Durability that stands the test of time
Carpet can take a beating. Between foot traffic, furniture movement, and day-to-day wear, your floors go through a lot. SmartStrand carpet is made to take it.
Even after heavy wear, SmartStrand bounced back with little sign of damage. That kind of performance gives homeowners serious peace of mind.
You don’t have to baby this carpet. It works hard so you don’t have to.
Softer than you expect
Usually, toughness means sacrificing comfort. Not here. SmartStrand carpets are surprisingly soft and luxurious, even when you walk barefoot. That comfort matters in bedrooms, playrooms, or anywhere you want a little extra warmth and coziness.
Several styles, textures, and colors are available, too. Whether you want a sleek, modern look or something traditional and homey, there’s a SmartStrand option that fits your space.
Eco-friendly benefits worth noting
SmartStrand isn’t just good for your home—it’s good for the planet, too. The fiber is made in part from renewable plant-based materials, using less energy in production than traditional carpet fibers.
If you're working toward a more sustainable home, SmartStrand fits right in. It also holds up so well that you won’t need to replace it as often, which means less waste over time.
