There are many types of carpet padding, and each one has different features and benefits depending on where it is used. One of the most common types is rebond padding. This padding is made from recycled foam pieces that are pressed together. It is easy to recognize because it has a colorful, mixed look.

An 8 lb pad is denser and stronger, making it better for high-traffic areas like living rooms and hallways.

Loop pile carpets keep the fibers in loops, which makes them very durable and ideal for busy areas like offices or stairs. Cut-and-loop carpets combine both styles to create patterns and textures that help hide wear and dirt. Multilevel carpets, which have different fiber heights, add visual interest while still maintaining durability, making them a popular choice in both residentia...
