texfelt expands underlay range with new 8mm product business manchester

Yorkshire-based textile manufacturer Texfelt has introduced an 8mm Eco-Step variant to its SpringBond® underlay range to meet industry specifications and enhance product accessibility.

The inclusion of the 8mm specification builds upon Texfelt’s innovative SpringBond® product lineup, which has already garnered attention among national retailers and industry leaders. The product is particularly suitable for new housing developments, offering a sustainable alternative to standard PU foam underlay. Unlike conventional options, this new underlay is 100% chemical-free, thanks to its precision-engineered manufacturing process that ensures no lumps and bumps.

Environmental benefits are also noteworthy. The Eco-Step underlay is made using 180 recycled plastic bottles per roll, contributing to waste reduction efforts. This eco-friendly approach is further enhanced by Texfelt’s ‘twice recycled’ methodology, which incorporates waste from the manufacturing of other SpringBond® products. On average, the use of SpringBond® underlay in a three-bedroom house prevents about 1,000 plastic bottles from ending up in landfill.

Danny Shortall, Group Sales Director, emphasised the market-driven development of the product: “We have listened to what the housing market has asked for and we’re proud to have developed a product that balances comfort, innovative manufacturing, and affordability in response to industry needs. We aim to provide an accessible price point for those looking to avoid using standard PU foam underlay.”

The 8mm Eco-Step underlay is designed to meet specific industry standards, making it a viable option for housebuilders seeking sustainable alternatives. The product complements Texfelt’s existing 9mm and 11mm ranges, which continue to offer enhanced comfort and performance for commercial spaces and luxury environments.

Texfelt will showcase its new 8mm Eco-Step product at the Harrogate Flooring Show, offering samples at stand C9. This addition to the SpringBond® range underscores the company’s commitment to sustainability and innovation in the industry.
