Depends on fibre type /condition/factors including customer preferance eg chidren and pets etc etc.  I dont think most cc on here will be able to give you a straight answer to such a direct question. ask for a favourite then you may get some more usefull answers.

For synthetics maintanance cleans  i use one step premium (MS)
                       trashed                     i use power burst.
For will and delicate wet cleanable fibre types     i use One step finline (MS)

I clicked on your website link to see what you are doing in terms of carpet cleaning - but the links broke.

I have a number of fluids and powders I an use.
Mostly its Solutions Cornwall M-Power (Nemesis Super from Restomate is similar), pre sprayed, agitated, dwell time, then just before rinse spray over with Solutions Heavy Duty if needed - even on wool knowing I ma going to give the carpet a good rinse.

I also have used, and still got, Chemspec DFC210, Prochem Pure Clean which are considered pretty safe.

Going up the ph scale if Heavy Duty is not cutting the mustard, I might try Prochem Double Clean, or Prochem Powerburst (which with perseverance seems to be working for me at last). Definately an acid rinse like Hydramaster Clear Water Rinse.
