Carpet Padding

Carpet cushion or padding is a critical flooring component. It provides the foundation for your carpet, responsible for enhancing both comfort and durability.

Padding is constructed of several different materials, including sponge rubber, foam rubber, urethane foam, bonded urethane and felted combinations of hair and jute.

Always follow manufacturers' recommendations for cushion weight, density, and thickness, and make sure your dealer looks up the STAINMASTER® carpet warranty padding requirements for your STAINMASTER® carpet selection. Also, don't forget to ask your dealer about new STAINMASTER™ carpet cushion.
