EcoLogix® ES Custom Backing

EcoLogix® ES carpet tile cushion backing and attached adhesive system is Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze. A sustainable alternative to urethane and PVC cushion backing systems, EcoLogix® ES tile is made with 100% post-consumer recycled content, each square yard contains approximately 56 recycled PET plastic bottles.  With four times better lamination strength,  it resists compression providing better long-term comfort and support and adding enhanced ergonomic benefits. 

EcoLogix® ES tile is a breathable backing that allows moisture to rise and evaporate through the seams of the tile, alleviating most slab-based moisture concerns. Additionally, EcoLogix® ES tile improves acoustics, both floor-to-floor and in-room sound absorption, versus standard carpet tile and hard surface flooring.

 

The attached peel-and-stick thermoplastic hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive is releasable and re-attachable.  The attached adhesive reduces down time on a project allowing you to move into a space faster, it can be walked on right after it is rolled.  EcoLogix® ES eliminates the need for additional adhesives and has a lower VOC than most traditional wet adhesives.
