Questions & Answers

what is this pad made of? Is there rubber or latex in it at all?
ByApr 29, 2025
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

Thank you for your question. The Trafficmaster Area Rug pad is a rebond product. Rebond is a variety of different types of polyurethane foam that is chopped up and then blended together. We do not add rubber or latex to the product; however, we do not control all the foam material content, therefore, if would be difficult to assure you there is no latex or rubber in the product.

      Is this rug pad waterproof or mold resistant?
      ByOct 16, 2024

      Answer This Question

      Thank you for your question. This product does not have a barrier which would prevent spills from going thru the rug and then thru the pad. This product will absorb water. The product does not have an antimicrobial additive. if you are looking for a product with that criteria please see our Lifeproof Premium Area Rug pad which has the film to prevent spills from going thru the pad and the product does have an antimicrobial additive.

          I have a hollow core door for the kids room, can I glue a piece of this padding to the door to sound proof the noise?
          ByAug 10, 2024
          1 Answer | 
          Answer This Question

          Thank you for your question. We do not recommend this product be applied to a door for sound proof. The product is polyurethane foam which is highly flammable when left exposed. We recommend the product only installed under carpet

            If used in a renovated garage with a concrete floor, with a woven polypropylene floor covering, is the pad likely to get moldy? I don't anticipate it actually getting wet, but concrete can get damp in humid conditions.

                  Summarized by generative AI from text of customer reviews

                  Customers say this rug pad offers excellent cushioning and comfort under area rugs, significantly enhancing the walking experience. Many appreciate its affordability and ease of cutting to fit various rug sizes. However, some users noted that the pad can be prone to tearing and may not provide sufficient grip on smooth surfaces, leading to occasional sliding of the rugs. Overall, it is viewed as a valuable addition for improving the feel of rugs while protecting floors.

                  Comfy cozy!
                  Was looking for padding under a recently purchased area rug that’s 8x10. This pad is only 6x8, however we put it under the area that will get the most traffic. The area rug is placed partially under the sofa. This feels 100% better to walk on! Plus the price was awesome!! I hadn’t seen it online because I was looking for 8x10 pads. For the price and the comfort, definitely worth it!

                    measurements are off
                    I bought three of these and they were all short. They are more like 5 1/4 x 7 1/4, but all of them were all different sizes.

                      Glad I could get a smaller size.
                      Needed a pad for a rug that was 5 x 8 and I'm glad I found this so I wasn't wasting a lot of material. I've used this brand before and the carpet still feels nice and cushiony underfoot 5 years later. Doesn't stick to the floor and leave gummy residue like some rubber backed products.

                        Pad is easy to cut using ordinary scissors. As advertised, it's made of recycled material, so you'll see bits of cardboard mixed in with the chopped up foam bits. It will shed a bit after you cut it to size. It's not technically anti-slip, but it doesn't appear to slide very much on my hardwood floor. There are more expensive pads that have an anti-slip side and are made with nicer material, but not likely that they cushion your steps much better if at all. At this price point it's a 5 star buy.

                        Product must be unwrapped with care since it is rather thin and easy to tear. My first one was ripped, but the replacement was fine. Does the job and was very affordable.

                        We use the padding for carpet that we bought for a room that we renovated for our One year old to have a play room and then area to learn to walk. As many know when they are learning to walk they fall a lot. So this padding gave us the comfort that we needed that when she fell the impact was going to give her some type of cushion and she wouldn't hurt herself. So far she's taking 10 steps and she has not hurt herself not 1 time out of the 100 times she has fallen. Great product great padding.
