New Zealand Made Liquid Latex Rug Adhesive

Our premium New Zealand Made Liquid Latex Adhesive is specially formulated for rug backing. With its thin liquid consistency, it penetrates deep into tufted fibres, creating a strong, flexible bond that locks your yarn securely in place.

Why Choose This Latex Adhesive?

Flexible & Durable Finish
Dries into a thin rubber-like backing that remains flexible while providing long-lasting durability. Your rug stays strong without becoming stiff or brittle.

Natural Non-Slip Properties
Once dry, the adhesive remains slightly tacky, helping prevent rugs from slipping on hard surfaces. This also reduces the amount of glue needed when folding edges or applying binding.

Carefully Selected Formula
After extensive testing, this latex was chosen for its superior performance, penetration, and reliability compared to other rug backing options on the market.

Important Usage Information

This latex contains ammonia and has a strong odour during application. Use only in a well-ventilated area. While not toxic when used correctly, proper ventilation is essential.

This product is ace! I use it on all my tufting creations. Its liquidity helps it get into all the spaces on the back of my tufted projects, and is so easy to apply.

Really happy I tried this adhesive.

I really like this adhesive. It's easy to apply rugs come out perfect no loose tufting, only need small amount to achieve a good coverage. To be honest I've only used one other product before trying this but won't be trying any others. Perfect for my needs.

My go to hands down

I recommend this product because of how easy it is to apply and spread across tufted projects. Another cool thing is cleaning of my table and hands is a breeze. Let dry in seconds on my fingers and simply peel dry glue off. Having this also doesn't mean you have to apply huge thick layers, keeping rugs much lighter for big wall hanging rugs.

It's the only adhesive I've tried for rugs but would definitely say it's done well for me. I've seen vids and other products but because I've had no issues in terms of using this one I'd say I'm going to keep using this one. Getting a decent pour on really give a good spread along the rug back. Another thing I liked was cleaning spills or getting on my hands was a breeze getting it off. Would be a 5 but had issue with leaking bucket lid. Other than that it's my go to right now.

Latex Adhesive

Excellent product, moved from gloopy carpet adhesive which took way too long to dry & was still smelly a few days later. With this product it dried in a couple of hours and no lingering smell which is much better for my customers! Highly recommended!!

Liquid Latex Carpet Backing

Great product which I used on my Motorhome's carpets which had lost their backing after machine washing. They are now back to being more solid, unlikely to crumple plus with the added bonus that they don't move or slip around on the vinyl flooring under.

Super easy to use

The latex works super well, doesn’t take long to dry and holds really well.
