When it comes to designing and maintaining sports courts, the surface you choose can make all the difference. From ensuring player safety to enhancing game performance, the right flooring is crucial. This is where LOKFLOR, a 100% South African-made product, stands out as a top choice for sports courts. Here is why:
Unmatched Durability and Longevity
LOKFLOR is crafted from high-grade Hexene LLDPE, sourced from SASOL, an FDA-approved polymer. This robust material ensures that LOKFLOR tiles can withstand the toughest conditions. With a temperature range from -30 to 60 degrees Celsius and the ability to handle a 3-ton load, LOKFLOR tiles are built to last. Additionally, they come with a 15-year UV warranty and a life expectancy of over 20 years, making them a long-term investment for any sports courts.
Superior Safety Features
Player safety is a top priority in sports courts design. LOKFLOR tiles are cushioned for lower impact, reducing the risk of injuries and fatigue through their multi-directional flex technology. The tiles also offer lateral forgiveness, which minimizes stress on joints during intense gameplay. Tested and approved by UJ & UK Sports Labs, LOKFLOR delivers a consistent vertical ball rebound of 100% (BS EN 12235: 2013) and a shock absorption rate of 13% (BS EN 14808: 2005), making it a safe and reliable surface for athletes.
Versatile Multi-Sport Applications
LOKFLOR is not just for one type of sport; it is designed for versatility. Whether it is basketball, netball, tennis, soccer, volleyball, pickleball, handball, or cricket, LOKFLOR provides an excellent surface for a wide range of sports. Its 1G, 2G, and 3G surfaces cater to different gameplay needs, from fast surfaces similar to clay courts to slip-resistant surfaces endorsed by ECB & ICC.
Eco-friendly and Low Maintenance
Sustainability is a key feature of LOKFLOR. Manufactured in an off-grid, 100% solar-powered factory, these tiles are made from 100% recyclable materials. They are also resistant to mold, chemicals, and UV exposure, ensuring that they remain in top condition with minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning is as simple as using a damp mop or vacuum, with seasonal high-pressure cleaning recommended. Plus, LOKFLOR tiles can be disinfected with any standard market disinfectant, making them easy to keep hygienic.
Customizable and Aesthetically Pleasing
LOKFLOR offers a wide variety of colours to choose from, allowing sports courts to be tailored to any team or brand. Moreover, LOKFLOR supports digital printing of logos, making it a fantastic option for marketing and branding opportunities.
Easy Installation and Relocation
LOKFLOR tiles are designed for ease of installation. They do not require glue or adhesives and can be laid on a variety of surfaces, including concrete, asphalt, and paved areas. For temporary setups, LOKFLOR can even be placed on dirt or grass without damaging the underlying surface, and the tiles can be easily uplifted and relocated as needed.
Tested and Proven Performance
LOKFLOR’s performance has been rigorously tested to meet international standards. With friction dry testing (98 BS EN 13036-4: 2011), tensile strength (3.41 MPa BS EN 12230: 2003), and vertical deformation (1.83 mm BS EN 14809: 2005), LOKFLOR is proven to deliver reliable performance in various sports environments.
