Features
Thick felt rug pads are composed of intricately woven fibers and are so dense that there is hardly any air in them. This makes them less absorbent and more bouncy; it is this bounce in them that disallows them to absorb the water. It ensures there is no penetration of any material through to the floor. Most rugs and their pads are composed of cotton or some other similar material. Though this may make it very comfortable for you to walk on, it makes it quite hard for them to resist water. Rather, not only does the rug absorb the water but it finds its way down to the floor.
A thick and carefully picked felt rug pad helps you avoid that. It can either be a natural felt and rubber non-slip rug pad; such a pad ensures the resistance to a complete one hundred percent to all liquid materials. This makes cleaning it and maintaining it a lot easier, thus can be very practical. Another kind is the natural rubber non-slip rug pad; this resists water penetration to a great deal but not entirely as good as the pad mentioned above. And lastly is the natural felt thick rug pad which as the first one resists all forms of penetration.
It serves as a lamination on hardwood floors and acts as a strong barrier against water. Not only does this help the rug be okay it adds to its maintenance and the prolonged life and use of the rug pad and the floor. Its thickness is comparatively more but does not feel uncomfortable. Above all it is composed of such materials that it ensures no scratch from the external use is impacted on the floor.
Hence if you are someone looking for a little extra care and protection of your rug and your floor, this is the felt rug pad for you.
