Sports flooring refers to specially designed flooring surfaces that are used in sports facilities, gymnasiums, fitness centers, and outdoor sports courts.

Shock Absorption: Designed to reduce the impact on athletes' joints and muscles, minimizing the risk of injury.

Traction: Provides sufficient grip to allow for quick movements, pivots, and stops, crucial for sports like basketball, volleyball, and tennis.

Durability: Made to withstand high traffic, heavy loads, and regular wear and tear, often requiring low maintenance.

Resilience: Sports flooring is elastic, allowing for bouncing of balls (e.g., basketball) and providing cushioning to support safe landings.

Multifunctionality: Some sports flooring systems can be used for various sports activities and events, making them versatile for schools and community centers.

The global sports flooring market has been growing due to rising interest in sports, fitness, and wellness activities across various regions.
