Dow Latex for Carpet

Underlay

Dow has developed a new foam latex system to address the decline in foam backed carpet caused by a combination of poor quality and environmental issues.

Our new patented technology provides a simple system bringing many advantages over existing products on the market.

  • Simple manufacturing – a 1 part system. The carpet producer simply adds filler and thickener and applies on a traditional foam backing line.
  • Low Odour due to the absence of sulphur
  • Fast curing
  • Free from Heavy Metals and Formaldehyde
  • Post Embossable with heated embossing system

The current system is for use flat on the back of all types of carpet

  • Tufted
  • Woven
  • Needlefelt
  • Tiles

Our foam backing technology can also be used in the production of non-attached cushion underlay pads. Our team of Technical Service and Development specialists would be glad to help and advise on the use of this novel new foam.
