There’s no question that carpeting is the most versatile flooring material available. Its flexibility allows you to create patterns, borders, curves and even logos. The problem with traditional carpet is that is doesn’t perform well in a fitness area. That’s because most carpet is made of woven fabric that absorbs everything from perspiration, to spills, to grease from your CV machines. It also allows small fibers to get into the gears of your expensive machines, which causes extra strain on the motors and working parts, leading to more maintenance and shorter lives of this equipment.

However, if you could create a carpet that does not utilize these absorbent fibers, then you’d have a material that holds up to the rigors of fitness center use and allows you the design flexibility that comes with carpet. That’s just what we’ve done in producing CarpeTile Sport, utilizing a 100% polypropylene fiber that’s warranted for seven full years.
