Any rug can be used regardless of the factory backing if you place a dense felt pad between the rug and the laminate floor. You can look at rugs with natural backings such as cotton jute and woven backings. You may notice some dulling over time but you can buff that out. If you have a carpet with a solid rubber or latex backing place a rubber carpet pad between the carpet and the floor.

Some laminate flooring manufacturers recommend using only natural rubber rug pads under rugs while others ban the use of rubber on laminate flooring. Regarding rugs it is best to use non staining vinyl backed mats or any rug that is labeled as colorfast area rugs that say safe for use with hardwoods should be just fine. Pergo gold and pergo floormate underlayment can be used as extra padding with any pergo laminate flooring. There is a good possibility.

Pergo does not recommend that you use non pergo branded padding including cork underlayment to your laminate floors that are sold with padding already attached and included in the cartons you purchase. Avoid rubber and latex mats if possible.
