Which Tredaire underlay is the best?
As a UK manufacturer and supplier of high-quality carpet underlay products, we only stock the best for our customers, so we’re proud to offer premier underlay options by Tredaire.
Popular products in the Tredaire Premier Range include Tredaire Softwalk and Tredaire Dreamwalk:
- Softwalk 9mm Underlay – For comfort in most areas of the home (2.69 TOG, 41dB sound insulation)
- Dreamwalk 11mm Underlay – For luxury domestic installations (3.13 TOG, 44dB sound insulation)
These 100% recycled foam products have high insulation, durability, and comfort ratings, but we would also recommend Jazz 9mm Underlay as a non-premier product with similar ratings. For the greatest level of comfort across our whole catalogue at Carpet Underlay Shop, you should also check out Plushwalk 12mm Underlay, made from high-quality memory foam.
Tredaire Rubber Underlay vs Foam Underlay
It’s important to choose the right Tredaire underlay material type for your installation. This depends on the location, the amount of foot traffic, and the qualities you want it to have.
For example, crumb rubber underlay is extremely robust due to its high density, making it ideal for areas with heavy traffic. Sponge rubber is typically thicker and springier, offering greater flexibility to achieve the perfect balance between the durability of rubber and the supportiveness of foam.
On the other hand, polyurethane foam is less dense, making it much lighter and bouncier for exceptional levels of comfort, heat insulation, and noise reduction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Thanks to its renowned quality, using Tredaire carpet underlay comes with many benefits for property owners. Some of these advantages include:
- Luxurious Comfort – Thick, bouncy cushioning absorbs the shock of foot traffic and furniture, making the carpet extremely comfortable to walk on.
- Excellent Insulation – Dense rubber or foam materials help to reduce impact and airborne noise while retaining heat, creating a cosy and quiet home.
- Extended Lifespan – These high-density, shock-absorbent underlays protect your flooring against wear and tear, preserving the carpet pile for longer.
- Eco-Friendly Products – The Interfloor company uses at least 80% recycled materials and is committed to significantly reducing factory emissions.
The brand also manufactures specialist underlays, such as Tredaire Defender or Tredaire King underlay for underfloor heating, which has a lower TOG rating to allow heat to rise through it while still providing a high comfort rating, and flame-retardant underlay that's suitable for industrial and maritime applications.
However, with Tredaire underlay, 11mm or 11.4mm are the thickest options available, so if you’re looking for the thickest carpet underlay, you may want to consider Plushwalk 12mm.
Working out how many rolls of Tredaire underlay to buy isn’t as complicated as you might think. To start with, you just need to measure the width and length of the area you want to cover as accurately as possible, and make a note of these measurements in metres or feet.
Then, you can use our handy flooring measurement calculator to work out the area. Enter your dimensions and it will calculate the area in square metres or square feet!
With this information, you can easily figure out how many rolls of a specific underlay you’ll need and how much it will cost. Each product is priced per square metre and comes in full rolls, half rolls, or mini rolls. To find the number of full rolls you need, divide the flooring area by the roll area and round up to the nearest mini or half roll if needed.
You can then multiply this number by the price per square metre to calculate how much it would cost to cover the area in that particular type of Tredaire underlay.
If you need any help with this process, you can always contact us to ask the Carpet Underlay Shop team for advice!
Tredaire is a British brand that has been producing underlays in the UK since 1958. In 2002, a merger between Tredaire and Duralay – another UK underlay company operating since the 1940s – created Interfloor, which is part of the Victoria PLC group of flooring companies.
Tredaire products are still designed and manufactured in the UK today, maintaining their reputation for comfort and insulation. We are proud to be a supplier of these products alongside our own best-selling underlays and installation accessories at Carpet Underlay Shop.
