Underlay

We highly recommend purchasing any rug with our top quality German underlay as it vastly improves the life of your carpet and guards against slipping accidents.

All rugs have been priced with and without underlay for your convenience. 

It is for use on any hard surface like hardwood, laminate, tile or linoleum. We developed our underlay with a German company as Germany is the largest per capita user of hand-made rugs in the world. It has a 10 year non-stick, non-crumble guarantee.

If you require extra underlay it is available in the widths 2’0 (60 cm), 2’8 (80 cm), 3’0 (90 cm), 4’0 (120 cm), 6’0 (180 cm), 8’0 (240 cm), 9’0 (270 cm) and 10'0 (300cm) it works out at $20 per square metre. 

Please purchase here!

If bought with one of our rugs we discount the underlay to $17.50 per square metre (already calculated in the purchase price with underlay).

If you wish to purchase separately the length used to calculate the underlay required is the length of the rug in cms, minus 4 cms (so that the underlay does not stick out); times the nearest width of the underlay in cm that is most appropriate for that rug.

For example a rug 274 cm X 190 cm, the underlay would be cut 270 cm from the 180 cm roll.

Underlay can be loose laid anywhere between 1 and 4 inches (2.5 to 10 cm) from the edge of your rug. The underlay is engineered to have a flatter side which goes against the floor and a bumpier side which rests against the carpet.
