PolyCarboMax ™

A better deShedding design

made possible using an innovative new material

PolyCarboMax is an advanced material made from carbon fiber and a high-performance polymer developed for the aerospace industry. This ground-breaking composite is incredibly strong and curiously lightweight, enabling the innovative and patented FUR4 deShedding edges with eight SafetyNubs™. The end result is a safer, gentler, and more effective deShedding experience for you and your pet.

When designing the FUR4 deShedding tool, 

we wanted to break the mold—literally.

Most deShedding tools use a harsh metal blade that can damage your pet’s topcoat or even scrape their skin. Not only does the FUR4 tool feature four deShedding edges with eight SafetyNubs™ to avoid irritation, but the design of those edges are fundamentally different from anything else on the market. After years of research and development, we found a material that could provide the strength and versatility to make a more effective deShedding edge: PolyCarboMax.

PolyCarboMax

PolyCarboMax is a composite material that gets its name from its composition of carbon fiber with an advanced polymer that’s lightweight and known for having excellent dimensional stability. When reinforced with incredible strength of carbon fiber, PolyCarboMax is an exceptional material that offers a wide array of practical benefits:

  • Excellent durability over time, including corrosion resistance
  • Incredibly light weight with exceptionally high strength-to-weight ratio
  • Allows for the inclusion of antimicrobial materials preventing bacterial growth
  • Able to add Safety Nubs
  • Has a cool name

Most importantly, PolyCarboMax allows us to design the best deShedding edges on the market specifically designed for long and short hair pets. The FU4 Long Hair dog and cat tools feature deShedding edges with larger, longer teeth which are superior at reaching through the topcoat to remove loose undercoat. The FUR4 Short Hair tools are designed with more teeth and optimized geometry on the deShedding edges for easy, efficient removal of loose shed hair. Both of these designs are made possible thanks to the unique properties of PolyCarboMax.
