Thick Rug Pad for Hardwood Floors
There are two excellent thick rug pads for hardwood floors. A recycled felt jute rug pad is great for rugs that do not tend to slip. A recycled felt jute and natural rubber rug pad is great for rugs that tend to slip.
The important thing about getting the right thick rug pad for your rug and floor is to make sure the rug pad is dense enough to protect and prevent damage to your rug and floor. A 40 ounce recycled felt rug pad is dense and comfortable enough. A 28 ounce felt jute and 20 ounce rubber combination rug pad is also dense and comfortable enough.
The best thick rug pad protection for hardwood floors is a rug pad that feels comfortable yet does not allow any penetration through the pad to the floor. There are plenty of thick rug and carpet pads that are spongy. These are best under wall to wall carpeting as they usually have a sub floor such as plywood underneath the carpet. Hardwood floors need the density of a thick rug pad to prevent any damage from the weight of furniture possibly going through the pile of the rug, through the rug pad and making an indentation into the hardwood floor.

Not only does this rug pad protect and prevent damage to hardwood floors, but it also protects area rugs and adds an extra layer of comfort to walk, sit and play on.
