Introduction
When it comes to securing carpets, rugs, or floor mats without nails or glue, double sided carpet tape is one of the most efficient and cost-effective solutions. Whether you are a homeowner trying to fix a slipping rug or a professional installer setting up event flooring, the right carpet tape can make a huge difference in safety and durability.
In this guide, we’ll explain everything you need to know about double sided carpet tape — how it works, where to use it, and how to choose the best type for your needs.
Double sided carpet tape is a specialized adhesive tape coated with strong glue on both sides. It’s mainly used to fix carpets, floor mats, or rugs securely to the floor surface — without leaving residue or damaging the flooring.
Compared to ordinary tapes, carpet tape provides:
Strong adhesion on multiple surfaces
Clean removal after use
Safety and stability even under heavy foot traffic
Applications of Double Sided Carpet Tape
Fixing area rugs and carpets to tiles, wood, or vinyl floors
Securing stair treads and floor mats
Temporary flooring setup for events, exhibitions, or construction
Mounting carpet tiles and decorative floor materials
💡 Pro Tip: For delicate flooring such as hardwood, choose a removable carpet tape with low-residue adhesive from KAWIN.
