Common questions
How does this underlay improve acoustics?
Its high density and fibrous construction absorb sound energy, reducing the transfer of impact noise (like footsteps) and airborne sound (like voices) to rooms below. This makes it ideal for creating quieter, more productive commercial environments.
Is "recycled" strong enough for a commercial project?
Yes. This isn't just recycled material; it's engineered for performance. It's graded as "Heavy Commercial," meaning it has been tested to meet strict standards for durability and resilience in the most demanding high-traffic areas.
Why shouldn't I just use a cheaper foam underlay?
While foam has its place, this recycled textile blend offers superior density and acoustic properties that last longer under heavy traffic. It's an investment in the long-term performance and feel of the carpet, preventing premature wear and maintaining acoustic integrity.
