Does Rubber Flooring Help Kids Perform Better in School?

People tend to perform well in an environment that cares for their comfort and needs. Every environment is built keeping in mind the exact needs and nature of those who will inhabit it. A hospital caters to the needs of the doctor and the patients, a sports complex – that of its sportspersons, and so should a school of its kids! Incorporating rubber flooring in schools is a smart move that brings comfort, safety, concentration, physical activity, cleanliness, and durability to the forefront. With rubber flooring, we create an environment that supports and uplifts our young learners, empowering them to perform at their best and soar to new academic heights.

Quiet Please
Rubber flooring has a secret power — it’s a noise ninja! Unlike traditional hard floors that amplify noise levels, rubber flooring absorbs sound like a pro. Say goodbye to distractions and hello to enhanced auditory comprehension and concentration. With a quieter environment, kids can channel their attention and energy towards learning, creating a harmonious and stress-free learning atmosphere. You can even use rubber underlay (like Terrac®) to create a soundproof environment.

Energizing Movement
Time to get in motion! Flooring such as Terrain’s PU (Polyurethane) encourages physical activity among students. Its fantastic shock absorption properties minimize the impact on joints and muscles, making it an ideal surface for gyms and playgrounds. Rubber flooring boosts overall health and fitness by promoting exercise and movement, which is linked to improved brain function and academic performance.
