Our Plush rug pad features a layer of textured felt with a non-slip rubber waffle backing to keep your rug in place on hard and carpeted surfaces. It offers good support and insulation with a low profile for rugs that require less cushion underfoot. We recommend using a rug pad with every rug to prevent slipping, add comfort, and extend the life of your rug.This pad is best for vintage and handmade rugs with low or no-pile designs or rugs styled in high-traffic areas, such as flatweaves and hallway runners.
