10mm Axfelt Triple Layer Carpet Underlay
The 10mm Axfelt Triple Layer Carpet Underlay is a luxury underlay with a wool felt topping, mixed material middle layer and a rubber bottom layer.
It provides an excellent foundation for your new carpet to help prevent wear and tear, increasing the life of the carpet and maintaining its looks.
Made with 100% recycled materials, including old carpets and rubber tyres Axfelt Triple Layer Carpet Underlay is a sustainable product designed to make a contribution to the reduction of the amount of carpet currently disposed of in landfill in the UK.
100% Recycled three layered content
The top layer is all recycled Wool, the mid layer is recycled cloth and woven carpet and the base layer is rubber which is from recycled lorry and tractor tyres. A great reuse for all of these waste products.
3 Layer Construction
Most similar products on the market are made of a two layer construction. This three layer construction is particularly good at crush recovery and independent tests show it is the best performer in this regard (as per BS4052)
Insulation
Wool, as a fibre, is a great insulator on its own. The three layer construction makes this even more effective giving it excellent thermal insulation properties (2.7tog) and sound insulation too (32db)
Support
Felt is particularly good when used in conjunction with woven carpets as there is a velcro effect between the top of the underlay and the woven backing itself. This helps to secure the carpet in place once fitted (unlike smooth surfaces on many foam underlays) and reduces the likelihood of movement over time. In addition felt is particularly good at allowing seams to bed in and are much less pronounced once the carpet has settled after installation
Durability and longevity
Axfelt is contract rated so will provide long term support in carpet performance therefore extending the life of the carpet as a result.
