A BREATH OF FRESH AIR FOR FLOORS?

Underlay is an important element whatever the flooring being used. Using underlay offers several benefits; it reduces walking noise in the room, it makes carpets more comfortable to walk on, it provides heat insulation…and much more!

And now QA Flooring Solutions are introducing Breathe underlay for carpet, a pioneering breakthrough with real health and environmental benefits perfect for today’s home. 

Breathe is truly a step forward in the flooring industry, a totally new product made from a natural and sustainable material – wood. And if that’s surprising, wait until you see its unique benefits.

 

A natural choice for a healthier home

The wood fibres in Breathe come from a fully managed source, with no harmful chemicals or formaldehydes used in production – so not only is it better for the environment, unlike traditional underlays it doesn’t give off any VOCs, harmful vapours or unpleasant smells after installation. It’s even fully biodegradable at the end of its life.

But the biggest benefit from the wood fibres is their breathability. In tests, Breathe filtered out a remarkable 95% of dust from the air that passed through it, trapping even the smallest particles. That means enhanced air quality, a fresher-feeling home and an easier life for allergy sufferers.  It works at its best when used throughout the property.

 

A fresh kind of underlay

Breathe passes the applicable BS5808 performance standards.  In particular its high compressive strength helps to keep carpets in excellent condition and make them very comfortable underfoot.

It has an ideal thermal resistance (1.3 tog) for underfloor heating, and is stable, lightweight and easy to cut and install. Its breathability prevents mould and damp building up underneath, so it can be safely laid over old parquet flooring.

 

A new standard in underlay

Breathe is a really exciting step forward. It has real benefits to offer to homeowners, with the potential to turn underlay from an out-of-sight commodity to a positive lifestyle choice, an investment in a healthier home and the well-being of their families.
