Padded Back, Self Stick Carpet Tile.
I have a local school asking me about a carpet tile with a peel n' stick padded back. The backing is a thick black foam and puts the tile at approximately 3/8" thick. The the backing has a peel off membrane and when it sticks it has a very tenacious hold. I've never seen the product before and I don't know where to even start looking. Has anyone seen this product before and know what company makes it? He also told me he thought these tiles came 36" X 36". He's fairly insistent on this product. They are using it on a set of sound stages.
Any input is appreciated.

Re: Padded Back, Self Stick Carpet Tile.
Turns out it was a C&A piece. Definitely not a $0.99 piece.
Thanks for the input though.

This stuff costs over $30 / SY and can only be ordered at a minimum of 200 SY. The customer will be using something else

Re: Padded Back, Self Stick Carpet Tile.
Don't know the exact product, but rubber-backed carpet is something I try to avoid. If you ever have to take it up the rubber usually comes off in little pieces, so they should be prepared to pay for a lot of scrapping if it is ever changed. From what I've heard, I don't think much of the performance, either.

That tile with the black backing is crap.
