When you think of the world’s rich and famous – sipping cocktails by the pool and attending glamorous dinner parties – the last image this would conjure up is rolls of underlay. But have you ever thought what’s taking the strain under the feet of those Louboutin clad ladies and their well dressed gents in these luxury locations? All About Underlay supplies underlay for the home, underlay for the office and underlay for builders and contractors amongst many others. But we’ve recently received the news that one of the premium underlay brands we stock is being used in its most luxurious location yet – the six star Atlantis Palm Jumeirah Resort in Dubai!

The luxurious hotel sits on a huge 25 square kilometre island that is a man made £1.5billion ocean themed playground. And our Tredaire Technics 5 contract quality sponge rubber underlay is taking the strain under the carpet of all the hotel’s public areas, corridors and function suites. This means that guests can party the night away with premium underfoot luxury and not have to worry about achey feet from dancing all night .

Richard Hartley, E-Commerce Manager at All About Underlay said: “I think the fact that such a prestigious hotel has chosen to use Tredaire Technics 5 demonstrates that it is a luxury quality underlay that ‘s also perfect for larger contract installations. We’re please to offer our customers a fantastic range of premium quality underlay as well as the Technics 5 used in Dubai!”

The underfoot comfort and resilience of rubber crumb underlays is also a winning combination in many of London’s top hotels – and the luxury Grosvenor House Hotel in London’s Park Lane uses Tredaire Technics 6  in all it’s 446 bedrooms. It’s extra heavy contract quality, plus the fact that it is an underlay compatible with underfloor heating makes it the perfect solution to the constant footfall of guests at this luxury hotel.

“Premium sponge rubber carpet underlays such as Colours Red, Technics 5 and Technics 6 are becoming the number one underlay choice for carpet fitters when they need top quality underlay for luxury buildings that combines comfort with long term resilience”, said Alexis Bradbury, AllAboutUnderlay Director. 

The original underlay for use with under floor heating, Heatflow remains the best by some distance. A warming thought…

The geeky bit...

Engineered specifically for use with laminate and under floor heating, everything about this underlay is tailored towards these goals. A 3.00mm flat sponge rubber pad, this underlay will let the maximum amount of heat pass through to give a fantastically warm and cosy in-room atmosphere. This is facilitated by an incredibly low tog value of 0.35, in the process reducing your heating costs. The underlay is crowned by its sound suppression qualities, offering impact sound reduction up to 21dB.

The crux of it…

What more could you possibly want in an underlay for under floor heating? As a specialist product its simply unrivalled in how it works. And it still does all the regular stuff like leveling out uneven sub-floors.

Silentfloor Gold is a laminate hugging glory of an underlay, and this is why…

The geeky bit…

This is a performance laminate underlay, with fantastic acoustic properties. A 4.20mm flat sponge, Silentfloor Goldcomes with a gold Vapourstop membrane, which protects against moisture damage to the flooring from beneath. The impact sound qualities of this underlay (53 Sone) are outstanding; no matter who is pounding across the floor, you will not be deafened.

The crux of it...

Silentfloor Gold is similar to Cloud 9 Silver Woodlay, however the difference is that the added thickness of Silentfloor ensures a considerably better underfoot feel. It is the Gold standard of wood and laminate underlay, hence the name and the colour.

The cost of it…

As is always the case at All About Underlay, we don’t put a premium on quality of product and quality of service. We have arguably the most competitive prices around and will always endeavour to do so.
