Natural Carpet Padding–Enertia Wool Padding from Earth Weave

Why it’s Good Stuff

This natural carpet padding is the perfect underpad for your non-toxic carpet. It’s thicker and denser than most wool pads and made in the USA with wool from the UK.

Enertia padding from Earth Weave is a blend of coarse, naturally-pigmented wool that’s been mechanically needled (not glued) together into a cotton scrim mesh.

This natural carpet padding is free of dyes, fire retardant, glues, and moth-proofing chemicals. Color will vary from charcoal brown to tan, depending upon fiber availability. Some vegetable matter may be present.

Earth Weave Shipping Policies

Due to increasingly high global shipping costs, some Earth Weave products include an additional shipping charge depending on size and weight. In addition, they do NOT qualify for free shipping.  We did not make this decision lightly, and we kept this additional charge as low as we possibly could. All of our competitors add large shipping charges to heavy items and we simply could not continue to provide free shipping on certain items.  Should you find a better price anywhere after shipping costs have been added, please contact [email protected] and we will do everything we can to meet that price.

There are rare instances when we are quoted a shipping price from the supplier that exceeds what we’ve calculated by more than 20%. In these cases we may contact you to approve an additional charge and you can expect to hear from us within a few days of purchase. If you choose to cancel the order at this time, you will be refunded fully.

This product ships directly from the manufacturer and may take 2-3 weeks to arrive (although often less!). All rugs are final sale, no returns or exchanges will be accepted. Because this item ships directly from the manufacturer we are unable to provide any express shipping service for this product. This brand only ships to the contiguous United States. Excludes Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and Canada.

Thanks for your understanding, and we are excited to continue to offer these safe, non-toxic home furnishing options.
