  • Eco-Friendly vs Traditional Carpet Backing Adhesives: A Comparative Review

    Eco-Friendly vs Traditional Carpet Backing Adhesives: A Comparative Review

    Carpet backing adhesives must securely bond tufted fibers to backing materials and withstand heavy use. Traditionally, SBR (styrene–butadiene rubber) latex has dominated broadloom carpet backing due to its high elasticity and low cost. In recent years, “green” alternatives – including VAE (vinyl ace... read more
