In this municipal gymnasium in Castellbisbal, Barcelona, they had a floor with rising damp problems. It was a problem generated by the proximity of the indoor swimming pool.
They wanted to install a vinyl floor, and asked us for a solution. We recommended them to place the Supralay typemoisture barrier under the flooring.
These sheets have a rice grain texture that allows air to circulate. Thus allowing moisture to evaporate.
It is manufactured in rolls of 1.45×25 meters and in two thicknesses. It is installed with the rice grains facing down, to allow air circulation. And the vinyl flooring to be applied is glued on top.
For this gym, we recommend the Sportex Fit. An indoor vinyl sports floor in 2mm thickness.
Sportex is an indoor vinyl sports floor. Especially suitable for gyms and sports centers.
It is manufactured in various thicknesses. And it is available in both plain colors and wood-type versions.
For the weights area, Energy recycled rubber flooring was installed. In tiles and in 8 millimeters of thickness.
This rubber floor is especially suitable for those areas of weight training and weights. Because its dense surface resists all kinds of impacts.
In addition, the dovetail system of these tiles guarantees a simple, fast and economical installation.
It is available in black with colored speckles, which can be gray, red or blue. In this case they chose red speckles.
