At Tiger Supplies, we offer a wide range of Temporary Protection, including a quality selection of Carpet Protection film and carpet protectors to take the worry out of refurbishment and decorating projects.
Carpet protector film shields carpets from dirt, dust, paint, glue and general wear during construction, refurbishment and decorating projects. The right choice depends on foot traffic, project length, room size and whether the job needs a flame-retardant or slip-resistant finish.
Tiger Supplies stocks self-adhesive carpet protection film in standard and heavy-duty grades, plus embossed flame-retardant film and a dedicated applicator, for UK contractors, decorators, facilities teams and site managers who need reliable temporary carpet protection without damaging the floor underneath.
Before ordering, check the room or corridor width against the roll width available, and choose standard or heavy-duty film based on how much foot traffic the area will see and how long the carpet protector needs to stay down. Standard carpet protector film is suitable for up to 4 weeks, while the flame-retardant embossed film can stay down for up to 8 weeks, making it the better choice for longer projects. Neither is suitable for carpet tiles, rugs, or worn and damaged carpets. For larger jobs, a carpet film applicator makes it faster to lay carpet protector film in straight, bubble-free lines.
"Carpet protector film," "carpet protection roll" and "carpet cover" all describe the same type of product: a self-adhesive polythene film supplied on a roll that sticks directly to the carpet to form a temporary, protective layer. The roll is simply how the carpet film is packaged and sold — by length and width — while "carpet protector" describes what the product does once it's laid down.
Whether you need a single roll of carpet protector film for a small decorating job or a bulk order across multiple sites, Tiger Supplies makes it easy to compare standard, heavy-duty and flame-retardant carpet protection film side by side, along with the applicator that goes with it.
We support trade accounts and bulk orders for contractors, decorators and facilities teams buying carpet protector film at scale, with fast UK delivery on eligible orders.
Yes, carpet protector film is designed to be waterproof, helping to stop spills, paint and moisture from reaching the carpet underneath during a project.
Standard carpet protector film is suitable for use for up to 4 weeks. The flame-retardant embossed film can stay down for up to 8 weeks, making it better suited to longer projects. Always check the individual product listing before use.
No. Self-adhesive carpet protector film is residue-free, meaning the adhesive stays on the film rather than transferring to the carpet when it's removed. It's also worth vacuuming the surface before removal to avoid spreading dust or debris.
Measure the room or corridor width first. Tiger Supplies stocks carpet protector film in 600mm and 1200mm widths, so wider spaces can be covered with fewer joins using the 1200mm option.
Embossed carpet film is textured for extra grip and is generally better suited to stairs and walkways than standard smooth film. Always check the product specification before use on stairs.
Carpet protector film can be applied freehand, but a carpet film applicator makes it quicker and easier to lay film in straight lines without bubbles or creases, particularly on larger jobs.
No. Carpet protector film is not suitable for carpet tiles, rugs, or worn and damaged carpets, and the flame-retardant embossed film should not be used on wet or damp carpets, over under-floor heating, or in hot, humid conditions. Check the individual product specification before ordering.
