Secondary Backing Systems & Their Applications for Hospitality
Action-Bac is a synthetic polypropylene fabric that, by applying latex, is laminated to tufted carpet's primary backing during the finishing process to provide a stable secondary backing. It is hospitality's standard for secondary backings for stretch-in installations over separate pad/cushion for "rooms" carpeting. The combination of carpet and separate cushion is best suited to rooms carpeting because these areas must have maximum comfort underfoot.More »
