Carpet Underlay

We offer a wide range of carpet underlay, each one suiting the different needs of our customers:

• Light traffic – Take a look at our FloorSure range; a light traffic carpet underlay collection that gives maximum comfort, without compromising on quality.
• Medium traffic – Our medium-traffic underlays, such as the SpringBack series, are an excellent choice for rooms with medium traffic, such as offices and spare rooms. Made up of a PU underlay with excellent cushioning and compression recovery, this strikes a nice middle ground between comfort underfoot and the defence of your carpet.
• High traffic – For high-traffic areas, which are a favourite of commercial properties, take a look at our PURE HD & UHD and PowerWalk range of carpet underlays for an example of what you can expect. They have a high density that allows them to resist the compression that comes with being walked on constantly, meaning they maintain their form with impressive resilience.

Every single one of our carpet underlay products comes with sound reduction capabilities, so take a look at our product range to find one that suits you – focus on their other benefits to find a combination that works for you. However, if we were to shout out a carpet underlay with superior sound reduction, one that is best known for its ability to reduce sound travel in the home, then it would have to be our heavy traffic underlay: CombiFelt Acoustic.

This extra-tough felt and rubber underlay has an unbelievable ability to absorb impact sound, greatly reducing the way noise travels around your home and making your home a more comfortable, peaceful place to be. If sound reduction is the most important benefit to you, then CombiFelt Acoustic is the top choice.

Yes. For luxurious new carpets, you want an underlay that will not only retain the feel of the carpet but keep it looking like new flooring for longer.

Our Pure range of carpet underlay is as indulgent as it is luxurious. Made from the highest-grade PU foam, it feels great underfoot and has excellent compression recovery. This is one of our most popular types of carpet underlay, but depending on the thicknesses of your carpet and carpet underlay, it may result in an overly soft and uncomfortable feel. Consult our team to ensure our Pure range is right for you.

Our CombiFelt Acoustic carpet underlay gives a firm but truly plush feel underfoot and is widely used with Axminster and quality twist carpets in luxury settings. This is the best underlay for luxury carpets with high thickness. This is because the density is higher, ensuring your carpet underlay can take most of the pressure.

It should be between 8-15 years, but how long underlay lasts ultimately depends on several factors:

• Flooring type – Your carpet underlay should be chosen to shore up the weaknesses of your current flooring type. For example, if your carpet has thickness but no density, having another carpet underlay without density may compromise both the floor and the underlay itself.
• Traffic levels – Foot traffic is the main thing that wears down an underlay. The health of your underlay depends on choosing the right level of density to resist wear – think about the traffic in each room and get a suitable underlay.
• Maintenance – Cleaning and caring for the carpet can take a lot of stress off of the carpet underlay.
