What Are the Best Padded Carpet Tiles?

Padded carpet tiles have quite a few advantages for homeowners and business owners. The top layer of carpeting gives the area warmth and a stylish look, while the foam layer attached to the underside of the carpet gives insulation and cushioning to those walking across it or standing on it for a full day of work.

Installers appreciate the ease of use of padded carpet tiles, as the layout goes quickly, using either puzzle style edges that interlock together or using pre applied adhesive on the back for a peel and stick design. These products work for a self install, and this type of DIY job saves money versus having to hire a professional carpet installer.

When selecting padded carpet tiles for installation, customers can use them in almost any location and receive years of excellent performance. Our manufacturers bond the carpet to the lower foam layer securely, ensuring these tiles can stand up to regular foot traffic.

In a residential setting, customers may choose to install these over the top of cement flooring in the basement. The foam provides cushioning, while also delivering thermal insulation against the cold concrete.
