Frequently Asked Questions about Gym flooring (Gym flooring FAQs)
For us to determine which tiles are the best for the gym we will need to find out the optimum four features of cost, durability, comfortability, and functionality. The best that offers all at optimum is the rubber interlocking tiles. Epoxy, porcelain, and ceramic tiles though they are great in functionality and durability they lack the cost effectiveness and comfortability. The only tile that has all four characteristics is Rubber interlocking tiles.
There is many flooring that can be used for a gym, and it depends on one’s preference, though there are best tiles that can be used universally. Epoxy flooring is one of the most durable gym floorings, but the cost is beyond an average person affordability and epoxy together with porcelain and ceramic tiles totally lacks comfortability. Therefore, the single most flooring universal accepted is the Rubber interlocking gym floor tiles flooring.
The minimum acceptable thickness for any gym flooring is 5mm, though the thicker the gym tiles the more comfortable and safer to use but the thicker the tiles mean the more costly the tiles becomes therefore the more unanimously acceptable thickness is 5mm.
Gym flooring is not expensive especially when one is looking at the tolerable standards. The cheapest of all flooring is the concrete flooring but it comes with comfortabilities issues. The best and most inexpensive gym flooring is the Rubber Interlocking mats for gyms.
The proper and correct gym flooring should offer the following advantages:
- Shock absorbent
- High durability
- High thermal capacity
- Noise reduction abilities
- Resistant to most alkalis, acids, oils, and water
- Easy to clean and maintain.
Longevity depends on the type of gym flooring that has been used. For example, epoxy will last as far as 100 years if properly installed, concrete floor will last as much as 10 years, rubber interlocking mats will last between 25 years to 50 years depending on the installation type and amount of use.
Gym floors should be made of rubber as rubber in its nature does not crack and offers comfortability on the user when falls and protects the subfloor from damage when weights fall. Concrete will however crack and chip away when heavy material and equipment falls on it. However, the strength of rubber floors depends on the strength of subfloor in which it is installed on. The best would be to install concrete as subfloor and then install rubber interlocking mats as to floor.
Commercial gyms and other heavy user gyms should always have under floor to protect the substrate. The under floor could be a slab with steel beams and on top any form of flooring either epoxy or rubber interlocking mats can be installed.
