Buying padding is like buying a mattress. Most low density pads are soft but do not give your carpet the support it needs to make it last longer. And high density pads are great but hard as a rock. Finally you can have the best of both worlds with our Napa padding. It's unique design gives you the best of both worlds along with a bonus moisture resistant barrier for your carpet. Napa is made with space age technology that gives your carpet the support it needs to withstand heavy foot traffic and be extra soft ...like walking on marshmallows! The moisture resistant barrier makes Napa hypo-allergenic that cuts down on dust... excellent for allergy-sufferers. And It also convieniently lessens noise by absorbing and reducing noise.
A significant buzz has been generated during the past few years about environmentally friendly building products. Here are a few of our new alternative eco friendly floors:.
Wood Flooring
Illegal logging causes great harm for the environment. Many exotic wood floors sold around the world have have been illegally sourced. By some estimates over 80% of all exotic timber comes from logs stolen from Forest preserves and National parks in Asia, South America and Africa.
All wood flooring sold at Flooring Xpress is guaranteed to be legally harvested.
Not only are wood floors made from a natural, renewable material, they also outlast and outperform many other floor coverings, making them an excellent long-term flooring choice. A well-made, well-maintained wood floor can last a lifetime, and longer.
We now offer Lyptus® Flooring. Lyptus flooring is really a grass that grows as fast as bamboo, but looks just like many other exotic wood floors. With different choices of colors there is something for every household. Offered in several widths, you will be able to choose exactly what fits you and your home.
Carpeting
There is a lot of green washing going on in the general marketplace and the carpet industry is no exception. Often it is difficult to decide if recyclability is more valuable to the environment than the distance traveled. Many believe that the greenest carpet products are those which are replaced less frequently. Ironically the number one reason why people replace carpet is because they are sick of the color. Some carpet have a portion of the makeup from corn: DuPont Sorona™ , while others are made of recycled catsup bottles. But it makes little difference if they all end up in the landfill in 10 years. So it is critical that you buy the most durable carpet you can afford, keep it clean, and save the environment and your wallet in the long run!
Luxury Vinyl Tile
Eco Friendly Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is made of recycled PVC. We have a new line of LVT that has up to 75% post consumer waste. Many styles to choose from...here are a few examples
