Sporting wooden floors are specially processed for sports and provide protective benefits to various sports venues. So, how are these floors? Let's find out together.
Sports wooden flooring is a type of floor primarily used in gymnasiums, featuring a more complex structure than standard floors, typically consisting of a moisture-proof layer, an elastic shock-absorption layer, subflooring, and panel layers. It is a flooring material with excellent load-bearing capacity, high fine vibration performance, deformation resistance, a friction coefficient of up to 0.4-0.7, and a ball rebound ability exceeding 90%.
The materials for sports wooden floors primarily include maple, birch, and ash, featuring a certain thickness and emphasizing the base and clear lacquer painting techniques. Such floors can reduce the injury risk to athletes during use. In China, sports wooden floors are commonly used for basketball court flooring and badminton sports flooring construction. As for the price of sports wooden floors, it depends on the material and manufacturing process.
