Richard Branson once said:
“Take care of your gym members, and they will take care of your gym.”
Even if they do, still that doesn’t mean you as an owner are not responsible. I other words, while you should take good care of your gym members, the responsibility to take care of your gym also lies on your shoulders.
Contrary to popular belief, merely adding new machines and equipment to your gym isn’t enough—at least, not anymore.
These days gym-members want more.
You need to maintain your commercial gym properly, leaving no stone unturned, especially when it comes to the flooring.
For the flooring of commercial gyms, you need to consider functionality and design. And it’s not too much to ask for both.
Let’s have a look at how installing epoxy flooring at the gym can work out (no pun intended!) great:
Functionality
Proper flooring for commercial gyms is essential and requires special consideration.
Here are some functionalities that make epoxy flooring a perfect choice for gyms:
Durability and sturdiness
Epoxy flooring is extremely strong and hard-wearing.
It can withstand heavy impact without sustaining damage like chips and cracks.
It’s ideal for commercial gyms with heavy foot traffic and heavyweight equipment, which can wear off regular floors very quickly.
Safety
The safety of gym members is the top priority of any fitness centre.
Epoxy flooring is slip-resistant, fire-resistant, and durable, which helps eliminate slip and fall hazards and other safety risks.
It will ensure a safer environment and provide you and the gym members with complete peace of mind.
Easy maintenance
The maintenance of a conventional gym floor can be disruptive for gym members. However, epoxy flooring requires minimal to no maintenance.
The surface can easily be cleaned by mopping in only a few minutes.
It’s especially useful for busy gyms that are open 24/7.
Design
Epoxy flooring looks exquisite and provides flexibility to choose virtually any design you want.
Here are some key advantages of using epoxy flooring in commercial gyms:
Use bold and vibrant COLOURS
Epoxy flooring allows you to choose an extensive range of colours.
You can pick a single colour, for instance, red, an action colour—audacious, energetic, and stimulating—to complement the black walls.
Alternatively, you can choose shades of the monochromatic palette and remodel the walls using exciting graphics.
Highlight your logo
Epoxy flooring also helps you reinforce the name of your brand.
You can incorporate your gym’s logo right in the middle of the gym.
You can also use metallic epoxy flooring to add textures and layers to create a beautiful layer of designs around your logo to give your floor a unique feel and put emphasis on the logo.
Add functional design
Epoxy flooring designs not only add a blend of unique aesthetic profile to your gym, but it can also be used to add functionality.
From defining designated cardio areas to shuttle run checkpoints, you can use several ideas to add functionality and refined spaces in your gym area, which will add more value to your commercial gym.
What’s more?
If your gym has a swimming pool, epoxy flooring is a no-brainer.
It provides excellent protection from bacterial and moulds growth.
Moreover, the slip-resistant, self-containing, and water-proof surface makes it the safest flooring choice for areas near your swimming pool.
In addition to that, it’s formulated with natural material, which makes it an eco-friendly flooring solution.
