Are you looking for the best floor for your gym, personal training studio or crossfit box? Then this blog is for you. A good floor is an essential part of every gym and yet it is something that many people do not pay the proper attention to. In our range you will not only find various floors, but we can also lay the floor professionally for you.
Before we discuss our floors, we first explain which parts are important when choosing a floor for your gym / box.
The ten points below are of great importance when choosing the right floor.
- Step one in choosing the right floor is the realization that every gym has unique needs. The right floor has a direct impact on the quality of the training. A solid floor must protect the ground under your feet and must also be durable. The floor gets a lot of beating during an average workout.
- A good floor protects your equipment. For example, when you repeatedly drop weights on the floor, it makes sense that a good floor causes much less damage than, for example, a concrete surface. The better the floor, the longer all your materials will last. A good floor is therefore certainly worth the investment.
- The floor must offer a level of safety. A good grip is essential during many training sessions. Especially when working with heavy weights, good traction is indispensable.
- The floor must not have uneven connections / seams. This is of course dangerous due to the risk of tripping. The floor must offer a perfectly smooth surface.
- The degree of impact that a floor can absorb is essential. The last thing you want is for the barbell to bounce up again when you drop it accidentally or intentionally. The floor must be able to absorb the shock and keep the weight in place.
- Points 3 to 5 contribute to the prevention of injuries. Preventing injuries is an important part of a good floor. A floor that gives a little bit makes a big difference to your back, knees and ankles.
- A good floor makes it much more pleasant to perform movements on the floor. After all, many movements are done on the floor, such as push ups, burpees and stretching before and after training. Of course you prefer not to do this on cold cement or other bad options.
- "Solid" equipment such as your squat racks, power racks, press benches and other heavy equipment will all be placed on your floor. A good floor ensures that this equipment does not move. There is nothing more annoying than having to put your heavy equipment back in their original place because they constantly shift.
- The floor is one of the largest surfaces of your box / gym and forms a large part of the "look and feel". Functional is important, but the eye also wants something. The nicer / tighter your gym / box is, the better people want to use it. Sounds superficial, but it is true.
- Floors such as concrete, carpet and hardwood are of course not suitable. Not only are these floors difficult to clean, they offer too little grip, are not durable and do not optimally protect your equipment and your athletes.
With the above points in mind, we are now discussing the floors that we offer and for whom they are suitable. For all floors, a good base under the floor is at least as important as the floor itself. The best choice here is a sleek, even cement floor.

Professional floor laying service
Have you found the perfect floor for your gym/box? Then laying the floor is the next step. Installing a floor properly sounds easier than it is. Not everyone likes to do this themselves, because of the carving, the time it takes and the fact that the floor has to be perfectly taut, even if, for example, there are round pillars in the middle. That is why we offer a laying service. If you want to make use of this, we must be fully aware of the situation.
So whether;
- We are going to conduct a preliminary investigation on location;
- Or the customer provides as complete information as possible (ground floor or floor? Are there pillars? If so, how many and are they round/square/H-profile) Photos of the room, video of the routing to the room, etc.)
Based on the situation, we may advise for or advise against a certain tile. For example, you do not want to place a square with 1m x 1m tiles that cannot be linked in the middle of a room, without it being able to be locked between walls. Then the floor will slide. In such a situation, we recommend, for example, tiles that can be linked.
Basically (if there are no very big details) we charge € 7,- ex VAT per m2 for laying (excluding transport costs). If it concerns a room with, for example, many strange corners, this amount can be slightly higher. Of course, this is all in consultation, so that you know exactly where you stand in advance.
