A: No, our pad is designed to grip the floor and the rug. This allows it to stay in place and hold the rug.

and are odor & off-gassing free. Non-allergenic. Non-toxic. Eco friendly. Recyclable. Sustainable.

A: No, any pad you chose can be used with all sizes of rugs. It simply depends on the feel you want when walking on the
pad.

non-allergenic, non-toxic, recycled and environmentally sustainable it’s the safest pad on the market.
Q: Does it stick to the carpet or floor?
A: No, absolutely not. That problem is caused by clay fillers added to the rubber in the inexpensive pad.
Q: How do I measure what size I need?
A: Simply look for the size rug you purchased or use a ruler. Once you know the dimensions, rug pad is usually cut 1 ½”
shorter on all sizes to allow the rug to lay down on the edges.
Q: Is it safe for older people who may shuffle their feet?
A: That is one of the best reasons to purchase rug pad. The rug drapes over the side of the pad and also protects the
rug from sliding.
