Rug Pads for Hospitality Designers
In contract work, the pad is a labor decision before it is a product decision.
Short answer
Rug Pads for Hospitality Designers
Hospitality projects repeat the same room dozens or hundreds of times, so any per-room labor is multiplied across the whole property. UnderItAll pads arrive cut to the specified rug size with 2-inch perforations, which removes cutting from the room-turn sequence and keeps overnight install crews on schedule.
What gets in the way
The problems this actually solves.
Per-room labor multiplies fast
Ten minutes of pad trimming across 180 guestrooms is thirty hours of crew time.
Overnight installs have no margin
Public-space installs happen between close and open. Nothing can run long.
Dust and debris are unacceptable in an operating property
Cutting felt in a corridor of occupied rooms is not an option.
What changes
What an install-ready pad gives back.
Repeatable per-room specification
One pad size per room type, ordered at volume, arriving install-ready.
Crew time stays on the critical path
Unroll, peel to size if a room varies, set the rug.
No on-site fabrication
No blades, no dust, no cleanup in an operating property.
Adjustability for the rooms that vary
Perforations absorb the inevitable room-to-room dimensional drift without a re-order.
The pad itself
Keep it simple with two thicknesses
Luxe 1/4" and Luxe Lite 1/8". Two options, one decision.
Rapid Relax for a smooth install
Rolled or folded, the pad lays flat in no time.
Pretty grippy, latex-free backing
Daisy Grip locks the rug down, latex-free, no residue.
100% post-recycled felted fibre
100% post-recycled felt. Cut to order, so no remnants.

Answers
Hospitality Designers: frequently asked questions
The answers this audience asks for most, with links to the detail behind each one.
Do you handle hospitality and contract volume?
Yes. Repeating guestroom specifications are ideal for cut-to-order pads because a single pad size is produced at volume and staged to your install phasing, with perforations absorbing room-to-room variance.
Can rug pads be resized during installation?
Yes. That is the point of the perforations. If the room or the rug measures differently than expected, pull along a perforation line to remove a 2-inch strip. It takes seconds per side and requires no tools.
How much time do perforated rug pads save on an install?
Measuring, taping, and hand-cutting a felt pad to a rug typically runs twenty to forty-five minutes per rug, plus cleanup. A perforated pad needs seconds per adjusted side and no cleanup, so most teams recover the better part of a working hour on a multi-rug install.
Who qualifies for the UnderItAll trade program?
Interior designers, design firms, architects and specifiers, rug and furniture retailers, showrooms, hospitality and contract designers, and flooring professionals. Approval requires business credentials such as a resale certificate or professional registration.
What rug pad thickness should I specify?
Luxe 1/4 inch is the trade default: it adds cushion, body, and acoustic damping under most rugs. Luxe Lite 1/8 inch is for low-profile situations such as door clearance, transitions, layered rugs, and thin flatweaves.
