Extend the life of your rug and protect your flooring beneath it in any area of your home with the Pet and Spill Proof Rug Pad by Mohawk Home. While this style was designed to help keep your rug in place and offer an extra layer of supportive cushion underfoot, it also promises to stop spills and pet accidents from penetrating through your rug to your floor with a plush felt side and a moisture barrier side. For application on carpeted surfaces; place the pad on your floor with the felt side facing down and the moisture-resistant rubber side facing up against the backing of your area rug.
