When installing sports flooring — whether in a school gymnasium, community center, or professional training facility — safety, accessibility, and durability are critical factors. While flooring contractors focus on providing impact-absorbing surfaces for peak athletic performance, an often-overlooked aspect is what happens at the edges and transitions.
Why Safety and Transitions Matter in Sports Flooring
Raised thresholds, exposed joints, or even minor elevation changes can pose serious risks in high-traffic sports environments. These uneven surfaces increase the chance of trips, falls, and mobility issues — not just for athletes, but also for coaches, staff, and spectators.
This is where SafePath™ Products make a measurable difference.
