When choosing carpet for high-traffic commercial areas, the backing can make a critical difference in performance. The ultimate high-performance attached cushion carpet backing is EPIC–18 ® with ReCover and SoftGlass.
Quality, Performance, & Strength
Specifically engineered for heavy foot and roller traffic, our attached polyurethane cushion composite is applied to the back of commercial carpets during manufacturing. It can be applied to all styles and constructions, including multi-level tufted graphics, wovens, and Axminster. Discover the key benefits of EPIC–18 ® with ReCover and SoftGlass:
- Appearance Retention – Its mechanically frothed polyurethane formulation supports the face yarn construction and helps the carpet retain its original appearance up to 50% Its unique construction is designed to maintain the dimensional integrity of the finished carpet, to resist buckling, curling, stretching, or shrinking.
- Easy Installation – Because the cushion is already attached to the carpet, installation is faster and requires less work, and it outperforms carpet and a separate pad in heavy-traffic situations.
- Easy Removal – The fine-mesh, synthetic lino-weave scrim backing provides the perfect substrate for releasable flooring applications, making removal easier. By blocking the adhesive from wicking up into the backing, less adhesive is needed for a secure installation, permanent or releasable.
- Gauge Control – By precisely monitoring the foam application during the manufacturing process, overall tolerances of the composite carpet are set not to exceed plus or minus 15/1000 of an inch. This ensures that the gauge of the backing will remain constant from side to side, end to end, and roll to roll.
- Mold & Mildew Resistant – As a completely synthetic composite, our commercial carpet backings inhibit deterioration with time. It effectively resists odor-causing mold and mildew, and withstands harsh wet or dry cleaning procedures.
