Elite Grip 9' x 12' Rug Pad

In high-traffic zones, the non-slip features of this rug pad are essential for safety, as they prevent the rug from bunching or shifting underfoot. The durable felt construction is specifically chosen for its resilience, helping it maintain its shape and cushioning even in the busiest parts of a suburban home or active household.

This pad is built with high-quality felt and is guaranteed not to mar, stain, or damage carpeting or other flooring surfaces. It provides a safe, breathable barrier that protects your floors from the abrasive backings found on some area rugs, ensuring your underlying hardwood, tile, or laminate stays in pristine condition.

Yes, this versatile rug pad features a unique two-sided design specifically engineered to work atop both carpeting and hard-surface flooring. Whether you are layering an area rug over existing carpet to define a seating zone or placing it on a hardwood floor, the non-slip material provides a secure grip that keeps your rug perfectly in place.

Beyond preventing slips and trips, a high-quality rug pad like the Elite Grip provides a protective layer of cushioning that absorbs the impact of foot traffic. This not only makes your rug feel more luxurious underfoot but also helps extend its lifespan by reducing friction between the rug backing and the floor. Additionally, the extra density helps with sound dampening, which is particularly beneficial in multi-story homes or urban apartments.

The Elite Grip is designed to be user-friendly and can be easily trimmed with standard household scissors for a custom fit. Our experts recommend trimming the pad so that it sits approximately one inch inside the perimeter of your rug. This allows the edges of the rug to taper naturally to the floor, preventing a "lip" that could be a tripping hazard.

This rug pad features a 0.25-inch profile. This thickness provides a significant boost in comfort and cushioning without adding excessive height. This low-profile design is ideal for maintaining proper door clearance in entryways or near closets while still providing the luxury of a cushioned feel.
