Rubber is a good choice for some specific uses such as dedicated Olympic lifting platforms. We will tell you if your space is better served by rubber or a combination.

Performance

Built for heavy loads and repetitive impact

Protect-All is fabric-reinforced recycled PVC with a compressive strength of about 641 psi and high puncture resistance, so racks, dumbbells and machines do not dig in. It can be permanently adhered, or in some applications loose laid as a removable floor.

Because the same floor works in locker rooms, corridors and cafeterias, schools and colleges can run one consistent, easy-to-clean surface through an entire athletic wing.

  • Free weight and dumbbell areas
  • Rack and platform surrounds
  • Cardio and machine zones
  • Turf-side strength areas
  • Locker rooms and corridors
FAQ

Gym flooring questions

Is vinyl flooring good for a weight room?
A solid, reinforced 1/4-inch vinyl like Protect-All is built for weight rooms: it handles extreme loads and repetitive impact, resists punctures and cleans easily. Thin residential vinyl is not suitable.
Will dropped weights damage Protect-All?
It is designed for repeated heavy impact. For repeated drops of loaded barbells from overhead, we recommend dedicated lifting platforms on top, as you would with any floor.
Can we add lines or logos?
Game and court lines can be added. Ask us about color options and layouts.
Is it cheaper than rubber?
Up-front cost depends on the rubber product. Protect-All’s advantages are life span, cleanability and no odor. We quote after measuring your space.
