Turning Challenges into Triumphs: A Gym Flooring Case Study

Based on the discussion between Terrain and Spartan gym, it was decided that a certain set of tiles would be installed in the facility.

Due to internal miscommunication between Terrain and the factory premise, an identical batch made for a play area was delivered to the Spartan gym. A year and a half later we were contacted by the gym, and we were informed that the tiles were wearing out since they could not withstand the effects of martial arts training and the impact of falling weights (dumbbells, barbells etc.)

Ideally, terrain tiles for gyms are made to withstand heavy usage in gyms so upon investigating our records internally and visiting the gym we was found that the wrong set of tiles were sent across.

#TerrainLearns: Our commitment to a resolution

We leveraged our expertise in creating high-performance gym flooring to quickly analyse the issue and create a custom flooring solution which meets the gym’s specific needs. An enhanced solution was devised and installed.

Result

The Terrain team went to the gym to quickly install the upgraded flooring solution. The new flooring has been active for a few months now and has not only met, but also exceeded the gym’s expectations. It has proven to be an excellent flooring solution for weight trainers and martial artists.

This project was a valuable lesson for all of us at Terrain. It reemphasized the importance of communication and to our clients, it demonstrated our commitment to excellence, the ability to learn from challenges and our dedication to customer satisfaction.

Spartan Gym project was a demonstration of how challenges can lead to improvement and innovation. By taking corrective measures and providing an upgraded flooring solution, we were able to increase our trust quotient with the client and enhance our reputation as a reliable rubber flooring manufacturer.

FAQs

Rubber flooring can be built of synthetic or natural materials, including recycled tyres. Because of its elasticity and bounce, it falls under the category of resilient flooring.

Our regular dimensions for the Eco tiles are 50x50 or 100x100. And the thickness starts from 15mm to 70mm. However, since we are manufacturers of these products, any customization can be possible.

We usually maintain stock for the regular items. However, on average we should take 7-10 days to produce 100 sqm of tiles. (For a specific enquiry, feel free to get in touch with us for the accurate lead time. It could be ready in stock or can take within 2-3 days to deliver.)

Terrain tiles: 1-2 days
Seamless flooring: 3-5 days
Rubber rolls: 2-4 days

Color fading is a normal process due to exposure to UV radiation. However, for outdoor applications, we use a special material to limit the yellowing effect on the flooring and increase the longevity of the product.

An initial smell in the rubber products is normal. However, with enough ventilation post installation, the smell should go away. If it doesn’t, feel free to get back to us. We will work out a solution for you.

We offer a warranty of 2 years for all Terrain manufactured products.
