rug pad for carpet floors from Rug Culture provides a practical layer beneath area rugs and runners. This 2mm reversible grip is designed for use on compatible carpeted floor surfaces, helping the rug sit more securely in busy living areas, bedrooms, hallways and under furniture. It can be trimmed with scissors to suit the rug’s shape and dimensions.
The pad is power loomed in China from PVC. Its low profile sits discreetly below the rug while creating a firmer base. Select a size close to the rug, then trim the edges so the pad remains slightly smaller and does not show around the perimeter.

Available sizes and fitting
Available sizes are 160 x 110cm, 220 x 150cm, 270 x 180cm, 280 x 70cm, 310 x 210cm, 370 x 230cm and 380 x 70cm. Measure the rug rather than the whole room, and select a pad that can be trimmed just inside the rug edges. Keeping the pad slightly smaller helps it remain hidden and reduces the chance of an exposed edge becoming a trip point. Use sharp scissors and make gradual cuts for a neat result.
Before fitting, vacuum the rug and clean the floor surface. Make sure the surface is dry and free from dust or grit. Lay the pad flat without folds, position the rug above it, and check the placement after moving furniture back into the room. Recheck periodically in frequently used areas.
Floor compatibility and care
Floor coatings, carpet piles and rug backings vary. Confirm the pad is suitable for your particular flooring and follow the floor manufacturer’s care guidance, especially with newly finished timber, heated floors or delicate coatings. Lift the rug and pad periodically to inspect and clean beneath them. Do not place the pad on a damp surface.
