OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) flooring is a popular choice for various applications, including sports surfaces like badminton courts. Here’s a breakdown of the content typically involved in an EPDM flooring system for a badminton court:

EPDM Granules: EPDM granules are the primary component of the flooring. They are made from a synthetic rubber compound that provides durability, resilience, and elasticity to the surface. EPDM granules come in various colors, allowing for customization and aesthetic appeal.

Binder: A binder, often a polyurethane resin, is used to bind the EPDM granules together and adhere them to the subfloor. The binder ensures that the granules form a cohesive and stable surface.

Subfloor: The subfloor serves as the foundation for the EPDM flooring system. It should be flat, smooth, and properly prepared to ensure optimal adhesion and performance of the EPDM surface.

Adhesive: Adhesive is used to bond the EPDM flooring to the subfloor. High-quality adhesive is essential to ensure a strong and long-lasting bond between the EPDM surface and the subfloor.

TYPES OF FLOOR

TYPES OF FLOOR

Line Markings: Line markings are applied to the EPDM surface to delineate the boundaries and markings required for a badminton court, including court lines, service lines, center lines, and boundary lines. These markings are typically made using specialized paints or tapes designed for sports surfaces.

UV Stabilizers: EPDM flooring may include UV stabilizers to protect the surface from the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UV stabilizers help prevent color fading and degradation of the surface over time, ensuring durability and longevity.

Cushioning Layer (Optional): In some cases, a cushioning layer may be incorporated beneath the EPDM surface to provide additional shock absorption and reduce the risk of injuries. This cushioning layer can enhance comfort and safety, especially in high-impact sports like badminton.

Maintenance Materials: Materials for maintenance, such as cleaning solutions, sealants, and repair kits, may also be included as part of the EPDM flooring system. Proper maintenance is crucial for preserving the appearance, performance, and lifespan of the surface.

Porplastic synthetic athletic tracks maintain the top position among the synthetic track systems. Manufactured in accordance with the IAAF quality criteria, these athletic tracks are suitable for every level of play – amateur, training and competition. They meet and exceed the IAAF requirements of slip resistance, spike resistance, force reduction and vertical deformation. Their material composition has been developed in accordance with the requirements of the sport and incorporates a balance between non­slip qualities, shock absorption and speed. The IAAF certified range of products are ideal for national and international level competitions. Porplastic’s superior performance synthetic athletic tracks are fast, uniform and responsive and create the ideal conditions required for a runner. With high UV and weather resistance, these tracks provide permanent elasticity and are resilient. These high­grip and non­slip surfaces are usable within minutes.

For more than five decades, Porplastic PUR/rubber granule systems have achieved an excellent track record as sporting surfaces. Made with the highest quality environment­friendly materials, the tracks are installed with best engineering expertise. These systems are just as suitable for new installations as they are for the revitalization or renovation of existing surfaces. Porplastic synthetic athletic track systems are advanced track surfacing systems designed to provide runners with the highest levels of surface performance for competition and cushioning for safe training. Porplastic running tracks are free from Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions. These athletic tracks are suitable for every level of play – amateur, training and competition. From schools and athletic training clubs to international arenas with the highest level class I tracks, all the sectors pick Porplastic athletic tracks system. These running tracks maintain.

Tartan Athletics Tracks are built in accordance with the norms of the German Standards Organization DIN and International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), which sets the technical standards of the European Union. Tartan floors are water permeable and consists of two layers. Tartan Athletics Tracks are flexible sports ground, produced from EPDM and SBR granules. It is usually made of 8mm SBR rubber at the bottom and 5mm tile color EPDM rubber at the top. Grounds tiles are made by casting the hot rubber in place and with paving machines. These are materials with high abrasion resistance and strong absorbency.

Spray Coating System Athletics Tracks are built in accordance with the high standards of the German Standards Organization DIN and International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), which sets the technical standards of the European Union. Spray coating system; is an easy to apply, inexpensive, EPDM coating system with high shock absorbing feature, and textured finish. Product is applied in multiple layers. It is sprayed on a flexible rubber layer, to form the desired thickness, with a spray machine. The base layer consists of the combination of SBR granule layer with polyurethane binders. The surface of the base layer is covered with polyurethane filler and thin EPDM granules.

The Sandwich System Track should be constructed in accordance with the standards of the German Standards Organization DIN and the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) and the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), which set the technical standards of the European Union. Sandwich System Athletics Tracks consist of two layers. There are 10 cm asphalt layer in the lower layer and rubber system floor covering layers in the upper layer. Sandwich system consists of EPDM layer,
polyurethane layer, elastic layer and primary layer.

The Polyurethane Athletics Track, synthetic coating, must be made in accordance with the norms of the German Standards Organization DIN and the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) and the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), which set the technical standards of the European Union. Athletics tracks with polyurethane floors, which are suitable floors for professional organizations, allow competitions to be held in all weather conditions. Therefore, they can host sporting events as outdoor athletics tracks, which can be used in all seasons.polyurethane layer, elastic layer and primary layer.
