rug pad

Floor grip layer

A rug pad is a layer of material placed beneath an area rug to prevent slipping, protect floors, and add cushioning underfoot.

Rug pads come in various materials—felt, rubber, foam—chosen based on floor type and rug weight.

The rug kept bunching up until we added a pad underneath.
