Larry Lane with Unsquashable Padding by LSI Flooring

from Commercial Construction Coffee Talk Hosted by CCR Magazine

What makes a carpet or rug cushion truly durable, resilient and “Unsquashable”? In this episode of Commercial Construction Coffee Talk, host David Corson sits down with Larry Lane, President of LSI Flooring, to explore the technology and performance behind Unsquashable™ high-density urethane carpet and rug cushion. First developed in 1984, Unsquashable Padding uses proprietary chemistry and advanced manufacturing technology to support residential, commercial and hospitality flooring applications. Larry explains the two important measurements that help determine urethane cushion quality: density and Compression Force Deflection, or CFD. He discusses how higher density and stronger support factors can improve resistance to bottoming out, shock absorption, acoustical performance and long-term resiliency. The conversation also examines several LSI Flooring products: • Ultra Plus II Residential Hi-Density Urethane Pad, featuring a woven polypropylene backing and two comfort options for contract and residential applications • LSI 101 and LSI 300 Commercial Hospitality Pads, designed for double-sided installation using removable or permanent adhesives Larry explains how carpet and cushion can be removed independently without leaving adhesive residue, helping flooring contractors, hospitality operators and renovation teams reduce labor, downtime and replacement costs. The episode also covers installation efficiency, tear resistance, acoustical performance, flooring renovations and why selecting the proper cushion is essential to protecting the carpet above it. If you work in commercial construction, hospitality design, flooring installation, architecture, facility management or residential flooring, this CCCT conversation offers valuable insight into the foundation beneath every successful carpet installation.
