9 Characteristics of Sports Vinyl Flooring

1.. Friction coefficient: Research shows that 12% of basketball players are injured in the process of spinning in place. The friction coefficient of sports floor refers to whether the floor is too friction (which reduces the flexibility of rotation) or too slippery (which increases the risk of sliding). Considering the activity and safety of athletes, the friction coefficient between 0.4 and 0.7 should be the best value. The friction coefficient of PVC sports floor is generally kept between these coefficients. The friction coefficient of professional Vinyl sports floor is 0.57, which has sufficient and moderate friction and can ensure the stability of movement. At the same time, the consistency and regularity of friction performance in all directions of motion shall be maintained to ensure that flexible motion and in situ rotation are not hindered.

2.. Durability: Sports vinyl flooring is designed to withstand heavy use and high traffic. It is made with tough materials that can resist scuffs, scratches, and dents.

3.. Shock absorption: Sports vinyl flooring can provide shock absorption, which can help reduce the risk of injury. This is particularly important for sports that involve jumping and landing, such as basketball and volleyball. The impulse generated by people during movement will develop and produce huge vibration on the surface of PVC sports floor material The structural design of the floor must have the function of vibration absorption, which means that the floor should have the performance of absorbing impact energy. The impact force of athletes on the Vinyl sports flooring is much smaller than that on the hard ground. That is, when athletes jump up and fall back to the floor, at least we should have more than 53% of the impact absorbed by the floor, which can play the role of environmental protection of the ankle, meniscus, spinal cord and brain of student athletes, so that people will not be seriously injured in different sports.

4.. Traction: Sports vinyl flooring can provide good traction, which can help prevent slips and falls. This is particularly important for sports that involve rapid movements, such as tennis and soccer.

5.. Easy maintenance: Sports vinyl flooring is easy to clean and maintain. It can be swept, vacuumed, and mopped, and it can withstand common cleaning products and techniques.

6.. Versatility: Sports vinyl flooring is available in a wide range of colors and patterns, which can be customized to match the needs of different sports and facilities.

7.. Comfortability: The surface of a professional PVC sports floor can be affected by deformation, just like the air in an airtight mattress. When athletes fall or slip, the airtight foam technology provides cushioning to minimize sports injuries.

8.. Water resistance: Sports vinyl flooring is water-resistant, which makes it a good choice for areas that are prone to spills and moisture, such as locker rooms and pool areas.

9.. Eco-friendliness: Many types of sports vinyl flooring are made with environmentally friendly materials and manufacturing processes, which can help reduce their impact on the environment.
