Carpet Underlay Foam Floor Padding 180cm x 400cm x 10mm Thick Flooring AIRSTEP Stepmax Yellow 24105

There is nothing quite like the feeling of stepping onto a carpet that has the right support underneath. Airstep Stepmax is designed for those who want that extra bit of luxury without compromising on durability. Whether you are refreshing a busy family living room or ensuring your stairs can handle the daily trek, this underlay provides the density needed to keep your carpet looking and feeling new for much longer.

Beyond the comfort, it acts as a high-performance insulator for your home. It helps bridge the gap between chilly floors and a warm room, while significantly dampening the sound of footsteps a must have for multi-storey living or quiet bedrooms. It’s a practical investment in extending the life of your carpet while making your home noticeably quieter and warmer.

Premium high density carpet underlay

When it comes to high-traffic zones, standard padding often bottoms out over time. This premium high density carpet underlay is engineered to resist compression, providing a consistent bounce-back that protects the carpet pile from premature wear. It is specifically treated with Fresh Living antimicrobial protection to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mould, and dust mites, making it a healthier choice for families and allergy sufferers.

Acoustic and thermal benefits

Airstep Stepmax doesn't just sit there; it works to improve your environment. The 10mm thickness provides an ideal balance of plushness and stability, making it particularly effective for high-traffic zones like hallways and stairs. By choosing a high-quality foam underlay, you are also adding a layer of antimicrobial protection to your flooring system, ensuring a fresher indoor environment for years to come.
