Eco Coverlay Self-Adhesive Floor Protection Fleece
Eco Coverlay is a reusable temporary floor protection felt by Gentuğ Textile: a 265 g/m² felt made with 57% recycled PES and a self-adhesive thermoplastic underside that holds on the floor, protects it on site and lifts off without residue. It leaves no marks on any floor, can be used on underfloor-heated floors and keeps its grip use after use.
Product Overview
Grip Without the Trace
Construction, renovation and fit-out work puts finished floors at risk. Single-use films leave residue, loose covers slip underfoot and cardboard soaks through. Eco Coverlay is Gentuğ Textile’s answer: a temporary protection fleece that stays in place, protects the surface and comes off clean.
The top layer is a needled felt made with 57% recycled PES that cushions the floor against tools, dropped objects and foot traffic. The underside is a self-adhesive thermoplastic coating: its tack comes from the coating itself, with no separate glue layer. It holds the fleece firmly on the floor without tape and resists liquids, yet leaves no adhesive film or marks when removed.
After the job, Eco Coverlay is simply rolled up and taken to the next site. Reusable project after project, it cuts material costs and waste compared with disposable protection.
Product demonstration: laying, utility knife drop test and residue-free removal.

Key Properties
Protection That Stays, Removal That’s Clean
Self-Adhesive, Anti-Slip
The thermoplastic underside adheres to the floor by itself – no glue layer, no tape – so the fleece stays in place and does not slip.
Residue-Free Removal
Peels away cleanly – no adhesive film, no marks, no post-installation cleaning of the substrate.
Reusable Across Projects
Roll up after use and deploy again, reducing material cost per project and waste.
Impact Protection
A 265 g/m² recycled PES felt face cushions the floor against tools, dropped objects and foot traffic.
Liquid Barrier, Absorbent Option
The coated underside resists liquid penetration (min. 0.2 bar, EN ISO 811). An absorbent felt finish is available as an option.
Built for Site Use
Min. 280 N/5 cm tensile strength and 40,000 Martindale cycles abrasion resistance.
Surface & Structure
Soft Felt. Smart Coating.
Two surfaces, one solution
Eco Coverlay combines a needled felt face with a self-adhesive thermoplastic coating. The felt does the protecting; the coating holds the fleece on the floor and provides a liquid barrier.
Surface Compatibility
Suitable for Sensitive Floors
Eco Coverlay leaves no marks on any floor; for special coatings, please contact us. Not for freshly laid or curing floors (fresh screed, new varnish or new parquet).
Why Eco Coverlay
Solving the Weak Points of Common Floor Protection
vs. adhesive-backed fleeces
No marks, even on underfloor heating
Many adhesive protection fleeces must be tested first, can leave marks or require the floor heating to be switched off. Eco Coverlay leaves no marks and can be used on underfloor-heated floors.
vs. single-use PE film
No residue, no disposal
Reusable on multiple jobs instead of being thrown away after one.
vs. loose covers
Stays in place
Holds on the floor without tape, so it does not slip or shift underfoot.
vs. felt underlay
Made for protection duty
Engineered with a self-adhesive coated underside that stays in place and resists liquids.
vs. cardboard & paper
Durable & moisture-resistant
Does not soften or tear when wet and can be repositioned.
How It Works
Lay. Protect. Remove. Reuse.
Shown in our product demonstration: Eco Coverlay goes down in seconds, takes the hits on site and comes up clean for the next project.
Lay
Roll out by hand and press into place – no tape, no preparation.
Protect
The needled felt absorbs impacts from tools and dropped objects.
Remove
Lift and roll up – no adhesive film, no marks, no cleaning.
Reuse
Store the roll and lay it again on the next job site.
