There are many different types of carpet underlay available on the market today. Traditionally a rubber underlay has been the most popular but this underlay has perhaps seen its day.
Whilst rubber is still an excellent underlay and will always have its place, especially on the stairs, PU foam underlay is fast becoming the market leader.
PU foam underlay was originally developed in the USA and has made a growing appearance in the this country in the last 15 years. It is now the most popular underlay type in the UK and Tredaire Dreamwalk is our favourite. This product from the Seventh Heaven range combines quality and value and is difficult to beat.
PU underlay has many advantages - it is kind to the environment, it is light and easy to handle and transport. But above all that it is comfortable underfoot. The most luxurious PU underlay we supply is Tredaire Sensation. Being some 40% more dense than even our best selling Dreamwalk and still only 11mm tick this must be a challenger for the best carpet underlay on the market.
