OVERVIEW

Flooring for Sports & Recreation

Sports floors are safety equipment. A surface that cushions impact reduces fatigue and injury, while still giving the grip, bounce and consistency that play demands. POLYZEN's resilient EPU systems are engineered for indoor courts, gyms and multipurpose halls, with slip-safe, durable and decorative systems for the surrounding lobbies, corridors, changing rooms and pool areas.

FAQ

Sports Flooring — FAQ

What is the best flooring for an indoor sports hall?
A resilient EPU system (ZENPU Hybrid) is the preferred choice for indoor courts, gyms and multipurpose halls — it cushions impact, gives consistent grip and bounce, and is engineered for intense, repeated use.
Is the flooring shock-absorbing for player safety?
Yes. The EPU sports system provides force reduction that cushions impact to lower player fatigue and injury risk, while keeping the surface stable and responsive. Performance values are stated Per TDS.
What flooring suits a gym or fitness centre?
ZENPU Hybrid suits gyms and fitness spaces — its resilient, comfortable surface absorbs impact from equipment and activity while remaining durable and easy to clean.
Is the flooring slip-resistant for wet and pool areas?
Yes. Anti-skid finishes are specified for changing rooms and wet zones, while pool surrounds are delivered as a POLYZEN Applied System combining waterproofing with an anti-skid finish.
Does the sports floor support EN 14904 performance?
POLYZEN sports systems are engineered to support EN 14904 indoor sports-surface criteria such as force reduction and ball bounce. Specific performance values are stated Per TDS.
Can the floor be marked with sport-specific game lines?
Yes. Crisp, durable multi-sport game-line marking is applied as part of the system, set out for the sports the facility will host.
