Technical Note: The table above presents the available technical configurations shown in the supplied sports flooring data sheet. Shock absorption, product weight, and roll length vary according to thickness. The exact thickness and construction used for an individual project should be confirmed according to the quotation, purchase order, production specification, and project installation documents.
Key Performance Benefits
-
Thickness-Specific Shock Absorption: Shock absorption increases from at least 15% for the 4.5 mm construction to at least 35% for the 8.0 mm construction, allowing the flooring specification to be selected according to the sport type and project requirements.
-
Controlled Vertical Deformation: All listed thicknesses maintain vertical deformation of 2 mm or less according to EN 14809.
-
Consistent Ball Performance: Ball bounce is listed at 90% or higher according to EN 12235, supporting basketball, volleyball, and multipurpose sports use.
-
Durable Protective Surface: The SINOPROTECT surface treatment supports routine cleaning and helps protect the sports surface from normal wear, scuffing, and staining.
-
Foam Cushioning Layer: The L-Cal foam backing contributes to shock absorption, underfoot comfort, and sports-flooring performance.
-
Low TVOC Emission: The supplied data lists TVOC emissions below 200 μg/m³ after 28 days according to ISO 16000-6.
-
Fire and Material Safety Data: The product is listed with a B1(C-s1,t0) fire rating according to GB 8624-2012 and passes the stated toxic-substance testing requirements under GB 18586-2001.
