Anti-Slip Nonwoven Laminate Underlay
This anti-slip nonwoven laminate underlay is a heavy nonwoven fabric exceeding 150 g/m², lightly laminated on one side to provide anti-slip properties. It is used under area rugs and carpets to prevent movement and enhance safety. The light lamination does not fully embed the textile material, so it retains its essential character as a nonwoven underlay.
