Vinyl sport floorings
We can divide the indoor sport floorings into the following groups, depending on their composition:
1. Vinyl sport floorings - suitable for school gymnasiums, fitnesses, gym halls, town sport halls, halls for national and international sport competitions, etc. They are suitable for playing volleyball, basketball, handball, badminton, aerobics. The flooring is highly wear resistant, the heterogeneous structure ensures good dimensional stability, the upper layer has anti-slip properties. The base is made of foamed PVC, which considerably softens the impacts and creates a comfortable feeling during playtime. There is a great colour variety as well as variety of thicknesses depending on the type of sport the flooring will be used for.
Comparatively low price and low maintenance costs.
2. The linoleum is a flooring entirely composed of natural materials. The main components are linseed oil, wood and cork flour, mineral fillers and a jute padding. The linoleum floorings are suitable mainly for volleyball, basketball, handball, badminton, etc. The linseed oil, one of the main ingredients of the linoleum, has natural curative and antibacterial characteristics. The flooring also ensures excellent ball bounce-off and also protects the athletes from injuries.
Comparatively low price and low maintenance costs.
3. Rubber sport floorings - based on their composition the floorings can be divided into rubber floorings from natural vulcanized rubber or from synthetic rubber. These floorings have high wear resistance, durability, elasticity, anti-slip properties, excellent game-supporting qualities, and also protect the players from injuries. They are manufactured in different colours and thicknesses, and can be packaged in rolls or tiles.
Acceptable price and acceptable maintenance costs.
4. Wooden sport systems - the upper layer can be made of massive wood or three-layer parquet with high toughness and density. They are installed over a support frame of base beams. The system can also be portable, which means that it is possible to disjoint it and joint it back together again. The system is composed by different modules manufactured for a specific hall. The wooden sport systems are famous for their excelent playing characteristics and excellent ball bounce-off. They are suitable for indoor basketball, volleyball, handball courts.
Comparatively high price and high maintenance costs.
