Polaris is a multi layered vinyl sports floorcovering, available in sheets 1.5 m wide
with a compact closed cell foam backing, glass fibre reinforcement, vinyl performance
layer, calendered embossed PVC wear layer, and printed wood design protected by
a transparent wood grain embossed wear layer. It has superior dimensional stability
and enhanced indentation ratings. Rapid restoration of the foam layers gives the
flooring extremely good sports performances.
The surface of the product is processed with an easy clean PUR surface treatment
that reduces maintenance by delaying wax and polish operations and by acting as
a barrier against stains and chemical aggression.
With an elevated underfoot comfort, it is the ideal solution for professional sports,
multi-purpose halls, gymnasiums, kindergartens and other applications where
athletic performance, safety, energy absorption, noise reduction, design, and
durability are required. Polaris complies with the EN 649 norm.
