I agree with Brian, but regardless of the type of pad they do need to clean it on a regular basis.  If its commercial it should be removed every day..If residential at least once per week. Also make sure that it is dry when replaced.

Hi Roger,
Any pad that is rubberized will eventually leave a mark. This could be from off gassing to oxidation, chemical reactions etc. If it is a small piece without any furniture to keep it in a place, I would suggest a non-skid pad. It is very specific and will help to prevent slip and fall accidents. If it is larger, a Durahold pad is currently the best on the market. For finer rugs, although expensive, we use it.

Subject: [sccpartners] Backer Pad

Can anyone recommend a backer pad for a rug that will not eventually leave it marks or residue on slate tiles? Or something else to place under the rug to keep if from slipping?

Thanks,
