With the introduction of RugLock®, Spray-Lock has entered the consumer market with a real-world solution to the household problem of slippery rugs. Spray-Lock’s R&D Chemist Brent Bergherm conducted more than 50 tests over a 6-month period of time to develop the RugLock® formula. After meeting Spray-Lock’s high standards, the technology was launched in August 2014. “I am extremely proud of our R&D team for the development of this award-winning technology,” said Fred Land, President/CEO of Spray-Lock, Inc.
