Installation and build-up

Turf replaces the rubber floor on its patch — it does not go on top. So only one question matters: does the track finish flush with the floor around it?

This page covers what you need to know before ordering: what goes underneath, which width fits your room, how it gets into the gym and how installation works.

What goes under the turf

The build-up follows a single measurement: the thickness of the floor around it. At 15 mm the track sits straight on the concrete. At 25 mm, ECO CORE 15 goes underneath in the size of the track — tell us your floor thickness and we factor it in.

FLOOR 15 MM Turf straight on the concrete CONCRETE TURF PRACTICALLY FLUSH 13 mm on 15 mm — 2 mm lower
FLOOR 25 MM Turf without underlay CONCRETE TURF 12 mm STEP 25 mm against 13 mm
FLOOR 25 MM with ECO CORE 15 underneath CONCRETE ECO CORE 15 TURF PRACTICALLY FLUSH 15 + 13 = 28 mm — 3 mm higher

2 m or 4 m wide

You buy capacity with width, not length. One sled lane needs 80 cm, so a 2 m track carries two lanes side by side.

If you need 4 m of width, take two 2 m tracks: a 4 m roll will not come off the truck tail lift and weighs around 210 kg in one piece at 15 m length. Two 2 m tracks bonded along the edge give the same surface — and two people can carry them.

2 M WIDE 2000 mm LANE 1 LANE 2 1 m comfortable
4 M WIDE 4000 mm 1 2 3 4 80 cm min

The same area also comes from two 2 m tracks side by side lengthwise, bonded at the edge.

Delivery and effort

The haulier unloads the pallet on the tail lift — from there the two of you carry it. Check the route first: door, stairwell, lift.

That is exactly why we build 4 m of surface as two 2 m tracks. A 4 m roll weighs around 210 kg in one piece at 15 m length and will not come off the tail lift.

For laying it, allow half a day with two people the first time. With Performance Turf the tape is included; the instructions are further down this page.

Bonding the track

The trick is to align the track once and never move it again. That is why you fold it back at the centre instead of lifting the whole piece.

Before — otherwise it will not hold

  • Clean and dryConcrete keeps dusting — vacuum instead of sweeping
  • Room temperedToo cold and the tape will not grip, direct sun softens the adhesive
  • Turf acclimatisedSo the size stays and the track does not move later
  • Cut edges stay as they areTaped down cleanly they hold on their own — no extra fixing needed
01 ALIGN Lay the track in position — from now on it is not moved again Floor
02 FOLD BACK ONE HALF Stick the tapes to the free floor, liner stays on three strips at 2 m width
03 PEEL OFF THE LINER From here the tape sticks — there is no second attempt pull the liner
04 LAY BACK, PRESS DOWN From the centre outwards — then the other side from the centre outwards

What comes up during installation

Does the track have to be bonded at all?
Yes. Pushing a sled makes a loose track ripple — that is the reason, not the look.
Tape or adhesive?
Tape is the standard, not the budget option. The reason: laid with tape, the track can be lifted again years later; fully bonded, it cannot. Turf is a piece of equipment, not a floor covering.
Is the tape included?
With Performance Turf, yes — around 2 m width means three strips. With Eco Turf it is not; TURF-TAPE-34-25 is in the range for that. A 2 × 20 m track needs three rolls.
How is turf cleaned?
Vacuum it dry. Wiping it damp is fine, wet cleaning is not — and that belongs in the honest calculation.
Can the track be removed again?
With tape, yes. Adhesive residue is not gone in two minutes, but it is manageable — that is exactly what the tape is for.
