Comfort and durability with premium PU underlay
When selecting an underlay for your project, durability, comfort, and longevity are essential. Premium polyurethane (PU) underlays, such as Estillon’s Best Base collection, offer an eco-friendly and high-quality solution. In this article, we explore the features, benefits, and applications of these underlays for a sustainable and comfortable result.
What Are Premium PU Underlays?
Premium PU underlays are made from high-quality recycled polyurethane foam. These underlays provide a stable and durable base for carpet installations. A notable example is Estillon’s Best Base collection, consisting of underlays made from 100% recycled polyurethane foam.
Environmentally Friendly Production Processes
Estillon is committed to sustainability by using recycled materials in its production processes. By reusing materials such as PET bottles, recycled polyurethane, and old car tyres, the company helps reduce waste and promotes a circular economy.
Using Best Base premium PU underlays offers several advantages:
- Premium PU: Enables quick and effortless installation
- High density: Delivers a highly stable and firm base
- 100% recycled material: Contributes to an eco-friendly and sustainable project
Traditional underlays are often made from virgin materials and may not offer the same eco-friendly advantages as recycled PU underlays. They may also be less effective in extending the carpet’s lifespan or providing optimal comfort. Choosing a premium PU underlay means opting for both quality and sustainability.
