Rubber flooring is a popular choice for gyms because it is durable and easy to clean as well as foam options. Other floor types like wood and vinyl are also used in gyms but tend to work best in a sports hall setting.

Most gym floors are made of concrete or screw-fixed plywood as the subfloor. The concrete or plywood is then covered with a synthetic material, such as urethane, rubber, or vinyl. The covering protects the floor and provides an even surface for activities.

Rubber floors can withstand a high volume of foot traffic and they are also water resistant, so they won't be damaged by moisture or spills. The natural elasticity of rubber is what makes these floors so durable and resilient. They are great for absorbing impacts which is why they are popular in gyms and weight rooms.

What is Rubber Flooring? Rubber flooring is simply a flooring solution designed to protect. It is made from recycled materials such as tires, sports equipment, and even shoes. It can also be produced through the extraction of natural rubber from the 'Amazonian rubber tree' also known as Hevea brasiliensis.
