New Gerflor sports flooring for a UK badminton club

By Kate Corney 13 Jun 2013

Supplier: Gerflor Ltd

Gerflor's sports surface was chosen to replace a deteriorating wooden floor at a UK badminton club.

The Abbey Park Badminton Club, Sheffield, UK chose Gerflor's Taraflex Sport M Evolution as the replacement for its old, costly wooden floors.

Available in 17 colours and two wooden designs, the surface offers shock absorption and complies with indoor sports surfaces standards. ?

The Abbey Park club also opted for Gerflor's Eco-Fit System designed for renovation work on dry surfaces. The free-floating design is laid over existing surfaces, reducing installation costs and the length of time the facility is closed for.?
