A layered cushioned composite which in one embodiment incorporates a glass layer of stabilizing material disposed within a layer of adhesive material below a primary carpet surface such that the adhesive material extends in covering relation away from each side of the stabilizing material and performs the dual functions of securing the stabilizing material at a defined position below the underside of the primary carpet and forming an attachment surface for an adjacent layer of underlying recycled foam or rebond foam cushioning material. |
