‘Carpenter is delighted to have been voted Best Underlay Manufacturer by the readers of Interiors Monthly. This prestigious accolade reflects our continued commitment to quality, innovation and support for the flooring industry: we are incredibly proud to be recognised by the professionals who know our products best,’ says Richard Booth, Carpenter national sales manager.
‘At the heart of our success is our industry-acclaimed range of PU foam underlays. Engineered for optimum durability, sound insulation and luxurious comfort underfoot, our products are designed to perform across a range of environments: from residential interiors to high-traffic commercial spaces. What sets Carpenter apart is our unwavering attention to detail, and a drive to consistently raise the bar in product performance.
‘Another decisive factor is our award-winning, customisable POS board. Unveiled at The Flooring Show in 2024, this hands-on display has earned enthusiastic acclaim for its ability to demonstrate clearly the differences within an underlay range and what the consumer can expect from the underlay they choose, from enhanced comfort and thermal insulation to improved durability and flooring performance.
‘Our POS board has helped retailers across the UK improve consumer engagement and boost upsell opportunities to maximise the consumer experience. The POS board is available free to stockists and can be fully tailored to a store’s individual product mix. It’s another example of how we work hand-in-hand with retailers to deliver not just products, but tools for success.
‘This year’s award also recognises our sustainability credentials. All Carpenter underlay products are fully recyclable, helping to reduce the environmental impact of flooring installations. For today’s environmentally conscious consumer and trade professional alike, knowing that comfort doesn’t come at a cost to the planet is more important than ever. We are proud to be leading that change.
‘To every retailer, specifier and installer who cast a vote for Carpenter: thank you. Your continued support, trust and belief in our products inspires our continued pursuit of excellence and innovation. Our purpose is to serve such a passionate and knowledgeable industry and we look forward to supporting your success for many years to come.’
