When selecting the right sports flooring for your facility, subtle differences in thickness and material composition can make a significant impact on performance, durability, and suitability for specific environments. Lanshuo offers two outstanding options in its PVC sports flooring range: the 4.0mm Semi-dense and Semi-foamed and the 3.5mm Semi-dense and Semi-foamed products. This article explores the key distinctions between these two products to help you make an informed decision for your sports venue.
Both the 4.0mm and 3.5mm semi-dense and semi-foamed products combine the best properties of dense PVC materials with foamed PVC layers, delivering a balance between durability and comfort. This hybrid structure offers excellent shock absorption, wear resistance, and ease of installation, making them popular choices in the sports flooring market.
The 4.0mm Semi-dense and Semi-foamed PVC sports flooring is designed to provide superior durability without sacrificing comfort. Here are its main features:
Enhanced Durability: The 4.0mm thickness delivers extra protection against high-impact activities, making it suitable for heavily trafficked sports venues.
5D Printing and Dyeing Technology: Offers vibrant, realistic patterns that meet diverse decoration styles and personalized needs.
Improved Compression Resistance: The unique scraping and foaming process boosts rebound value by 20%, increasing the floor's ability to withstand pressure.
Shock Absorption: Enhanced cushioning provides comfort and reduces injury risks during intense sports.
Low Ground Preparation Requirement: Can be installed over flat surfaces without the need for full glue-down, reducing construction time and cost.
Stain Resistance: UV-treated surface forms an anti-stain barrier, ensuring long-lasting cleanliness.
The 4.0mm product is ideal for venues requiring a balance of toughness and comfort, such as professional sports halls and fitness centers.
The 3.5mm Semi-dense and Semi-foamed PVC sports flooring also combines density and foaming but with slightly less thickness, making it versatile for different environments:
Durability with Comfort: While thinner than the 4.0mm option, the 3.5mm floor still offers excellent wear resistance and shock absorption.
Ideal for Public Spaces: Designed for locations such as kindergartens, libraries, cinemas, and shopping malls, where moderate foot traffic and comfort are priorities.
Wide Color Range: Available in 16 colors, allowing versatile design options to suit various aesthetic demands.
5D Printing Process: Maintains high texture clarity and pattern realism to enhance venue appearance.
Installation Efficiency: Like the 4.0mm floor, it requires minimal ground preparation and no full glue-down, saving time and reducing costs.
Excellent Stain and UV Resistance: Treated to resist stains and damage from UV exposure, ensuring longevity and easy maintenance.
The 3.5mm product is perfect for venues emphasizing aesthetics and moderate durability requirements.
Here are several factors to consider when choosing between these two excellent options:
Choose the 4.0mm flooring if your venue experiences heavy traffic and intense physical activities, such as professional sports centers or gyms.
The 3.5mm option suits public areas with moderate use like schools, libraries, and entertainment centers.
The 4.0mm floor provides greater compression resistance and durability, making it slightly better for high-impact sports.
The 3.5mm floor prioritizes comfort and design flexibility while still offering adequate durability for less intensive environments.
Both floors offer vibrant, high-definition printing with realistic textures, but the 3.5mm variant comes in more color choices (16 colors) than the 4.0mm (6 colors), providing wider design options.
Both products feature low ground preparation needs and easy installation without full glue-down, but the thinner 3.5mm flooring may offer slightly faster handling and cost savings in certain scenarios.
