Sorb-a-lay: the shock absorber for under your carpet |
Underlay
It’s the underlay that supports your carpet and rather than thickness it is the density that is most important. The higher the density the greater the support and resilience.
Bill Hayward Flooring+Plus recommend Sorb-a-lay underlay. Why?
- More resilient: an extra high density bonded foam gives extra support and recovery factor.
- Greater density: Sorb-a-lay density is 120kg per square metre. Most underlays are 85-90kg per square metre.
- More luxury: it makes your carpet feel softer underfoot, for that real luxury feeling.
- Longer life: extra high density underlay can extend the life of your carpet.
- Guaranteed: Sorb-a-lay is guaranteed for 20 years for both commercial and domestic installations. Conditions apply.
- Improved moisture dispersal: The protective skin on Sob-a-lay incorporates the ability to suspend and evaporate moisture caused by spillage to prevent carpet rot.
- Sound absorbent: especially on stairs and for multi-level timber floor constructions
- Mildew and rot proof.
- Odourless.
- Unaffected by moisture.
- Non-organic: will not harbour bacteria.
- Hygienic and allergy-free.
- Made from recycled products to our own exacting standards Sorb-a-lay is made under licence exclusively for Bill Hayward Carpets.
