Ultra Premium, Superior Rug Pads Tie as Best for Hardwood Floors

At Rug Pad Corner, we are proud to offer the industry best rug pads for hardwood floors. While there are time when orders for one of our rug pads are greater than orders for our other rug pads, the first half of this year is showing different. Our Ultra Premium and Superior rug pads for hardwood floors, and all hard floor surfaces, are equal in order volume for each in the first half of the year 2011.

Ultra Premium rug pad for hardwood floors

Part of the reason that sales have become more equal for two of the best rug pads for hardwood floors is because more and more customers have realized that both rug pads perform and protect just as well. Both rug pads contain recycled felt and the main difference between these two hardwood floor rug pads is that Ultra Premium also contains a natural rubber layer for rugs that tend to slip. While Superior is excellent on hardwood floors, it is all felt and does not prevent slipping, which is common with smaller rugs or hallway runners.

Looking back one year at sales for the same period, order for both Ultra Premium and Superior rug pads for hardwood floors have about doubled. Again, we justify this on the fact that more and more customers have become more aware of the quality of these rug pads and the benefits of using them on their hardwood and any type of hard floors. And, moving forward, as we continue to add elements to our web site to educate our customers, like our most recent rug pad videos addition, we predict that sales of all of our rug pads will continue to increase.

Dura-Grip Pads Keep Furniture in Place

Rug Pad Corner is pleased to introduce Dura-Grip(TM) Natural Rubber Non-Slip Furniture Floor Pads! These are exclusively ours and are 1/2 of an inch thick, 4 inches square, reversible with rubber on both sized. These floor pads truly work at keeping those sliding pieces of furniture from moving.

Dura-Grip(TM) rubber furniture floor pads truly do keep furniture from slipping on hard floors

When many customers order our rug pads, we often hear a question about how to keep their furniture from sliding in on their slipper floor. After much thought and testing, we have produced these Dura-Grip(TM) furniture floor pads. The main difference between ours and others is that ours work without actually sticking to the furniture or the floor. The rubber on both sides is textured to grip as best as possible, and it really works!

Dura-Grip furniture floor pads are made by us in the USA and are available in a package of 8. Since many applications are for furniture that may have the front on a rug or carpet and the back on a hard floor. These pads are intended to be placed under the legs or feet of furniture that are sitting directly on the floor. This way, they will prove to serve two functions. First, they will prevent the furniture from slipping and next, they will prevent any damage to the floor from the furniture feet.

You may order Dura-Grip(TM) non-slip furniture floor pads at our web site, either with your rug pad order, or just as an order for these pads. Like with all of our rug pad orders, Dura-Grip(TM) ships within 24 hours for free.

Orders of Super Hold Natural Rubber Rug Pad Increase

I am proud to report that orders of our Super Hold natural rubber non-slip rug pad have been increasing. Super Hold is one of the waffle looking rug pads that is actually made of natural, untreated rubber. Other waffle type rug pads are normally made overseas from a plastic or nylon that is chemically treated.

Super Hold rubber rug pad is in a league of its own when it comes to open weave rug pads as others are made of plastic

Super Hold is made in the USA with American materials. We have noticed that for those customers looking for a thinner rug pad, more and more are shifting towards Super Hold because it is completely safe for their floors and for the air. The other rug pads normally stick to and harm floors and have an odor and out-gas.

While Super Hold is more expensive than those big box store waffle looking rug pads, it is for good reason. Natural rubber costs more than plastic and the performance of this rug pad is far better than look-a-like imitations. When being used on any hard floor under any area rug, Super Hold prevents slipping without the common damage of other rug pads.

We believe that as people are made aware of the difference between our Super Hold rubber rug pad and others, they are convinced of the quality and performance. Our orders for Super Hold are up 30 percent so far from last quarter and we expect even more increases.

Ultra Premium Felt Rug Pad Compares Extremely Well Against Others

We are quite proud of the quality of our Ultra Premium rug pad! While there are some felt rug pads available at other stores, a recent comparison between our Ultra Premium and another felt rug pad that is available shows why ours fares quite well. We found a picture of a felt rug pad that is advertised on a few sites and offered by various names. I hope the comparison contained within this post will educate on why the Rug Pad Corner difference really matters.

A close-up look at the front and back of Ultra Premium felt
rug pad shows the Rug Pad Corner difference.

A close up look at Ultra Premium felt and rubber rug pad will show plenty of attention to detail. From the felt surface to the rubber bottom, the detail is quite obvious. Notice the texture in the felt surface. This helps the rug pad hold the rug to the pad to prevent creeping of the rug. Most felt rug pads do not have such a texture and this leads to the rug creeping and moving.

The rubber side of Ultra Premium is actual rubber and not a latex spray or an adhesive. Now, notice the distinct pattern within the rubber. This is specially designed to allow Ultra Premium rug pad to hold to the floor and prevent a rug from slipping. The more texture in a non slip rug pad, the more holding power. All of this combined, makes for high quality standards in production and this leads to a felt rug pad that protects as it should for as long as it should.

Other felt rug pad available at some web sites

Now, let's look at another felt rug pad that is available on a few sites. It goes by the same picture yet it carries different names, depending on where you look. A close up look will show little or no texture to the felt surface. As previously mentioned, the deeper the texture, the better the felt will hold the rug.

The lower surface of this felt rug pad is described as rubber and you will notice that it contains a slight texture of a very small pattern. Again, the bigger the texture of a non slip rug pad, the better it will hold to the floor and prevent slipping as it is meant to do.

Ultra Premium felt rug pad may costs more than the other, and it should because it is a quality felt rug pad. The small investment you make now to protect your rugs and floors will prove to be quite minimal when compared to the value of protection to rug and floor.
