Bestselling product ranges
Gym-Flooring offer a number of Bestselling ranges within various fitness disciplines but what are the key features that make them so successful?
Maximum Shock Absorption
One of the key fundamentals of any fitness floor, Gym-Flooring’s products score high on shock absorption. Their product range absorbs impact from repetitive movements, high intensity workouts and weights preventing ligament and joint damage and avoiding user injury.
Supporting users while optimising performance is a principal consideration when specifying a fitness flooring product and the certified brand has ensured their premium products deliver optimal shock absorption across their diverse collection.
Quality Materials
Sprung rubber flooring is metal-free, user-friendly and eco-conscious. The majority of their products are derived from recycled tyres or post-consumer rubber products minimising on landfill. Due to the use of recycling and rebuilt production there is no cross contamination of metals, stone or plastic. Tiles and rolled rubber are made of recycled SBR rubber, Binder adhesive and EPDM flecks. Using advanced technology, Gym-Flooring have defined a quality rubber which is a 100% flat and anti-porous. This means softer surface contact and no strong smells. Unlike cheaper alternatives, they only use Binder (adhesive) which allows for an odourless rubber.
Non-Slip Surfaces
Gym-Flooring supply high-density rubber products which offer maximum comfort. With a smooth but slip-resistant top layer, their products offer the perfect blend of ergonomics with slight traction for ultimate safety and performance.
Insulation & Sound-Reduction
The acoustics elements of a gym floor are critical for noise and vibration control especially within a commercial setting. Similarly, gym equipment noise can seem louder and travel further in spaces such as garages and basements. A great insulator, the Sprung tile range reduces sound disruption and dampens vibrations from active gym machines and weight drops.
Anti-Fatigue
Rubber flooring is a natural anti-fatigue product which allows users to stand or exercise for longer periods without injury or premature discomfort. The high-density rubber or foam offers superior foot cushioning allowing users to perform at their best.
4 Year Warranty
They offer a 4 year warranty guarantee from premature cracking or discolouration on all products.
Maintenance Free
Simple to clean, water and stain resistant, rubber and foam flooring is virtually maintenance free. Unlike some fitness floor solutions, rubber flooring is abrasion resistant, easy to repair with a lifecycle of over 10 years.
Carbon Neutral Shipping
Gym-Flooring are a carbon-neutral company. All shipments are monitored through an initative called Shopify Planet which allows for effective carbon removal. Contributions are made to projects that work towards greater sustainability and global carbon neutral practises.
Simple Installation
Using a compression method, Sprung flooring tiles can be butted together without using glue.
This makes the fitting process simpler, quicker and suitable for customers to carry out without a specialist contractor. Furthermore, the tiles do not move out of position and remain stable even through rigorous workout activity. Full video guidelines are available for users to access.
Similarly, the installation process for their other ranges such as the EVA Tatami mats and Combat tiles are also accessible to DIYers. Mats are seamlessly interlinked without glue, chemicals or special tools.
