Backing fabric (also known as secondary backing or final backing cloth) is applied to the back of a tufted rug, after the yarn has been sealed with liquid latex. This extra layer of fabric provides many benefits including:
- Adding a cushioning layer to make your rugs softer and more comfortable to walk on
- Giving strength and stability to your tufted piece
- Protecting the underside of your tufts from dirt and moisture
- Improving the overall appearance of your rug by covering the tufted stitches on the back
