Abstract: A carpet tile has a greige good structure, a reinforcement material, and an adhesive layer. The greige good structure has a primary backing component and a plurality of fibers attached to the primary backing component. The adhesive layer has an adhesive composition and a reinforcement material that is embedded within the adhesive composition. The adhesive layer is applied to a second surface of the reinforcement material.

Abstract: Described is a system having a plurality of rotatable platforms including at least a first rotatable platform and a second rotatable platform. Each rotatable platform is rotatable around a respective rotational axis. A liquid dispenser includes a plurality of outlets. A respective outlet of the plurality of outlets is positioned above each rotatable platform of the plurality of rotatable platforms. Each outlet of the plurality of outlets is radially offset from the rotational axis of the respective rotatable platform along an axis that is perpendicular to the rotational axis. At least one valve selectively directs liquid flow to the plurality of outlets.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to carpet and method of making it. In one aspect, the carpet includes (a) a primary backing which has a face and a back surface, (b) a plurality of fibers attached to the primary backing and extending from the face of the primary backing and exposed at the back surface of the primary backing, and (c) an adhesive backing adjacent to the back surface of the primary backing. The method includes extrusion coating adhesive backing onto the back surface of a primary backing. The constructions and methods described herein are particularly suited for making carpet pieces with enhanced durability and washability.
