Resilient underlayment for sports floors in gymnasiums
General household floors do not need to have great elasticity, but gymnasiums are different, such as basketball, tennis and other sports, all require a certain degree of elasticity on the ground. The elastic cushion is placed above the moisture-proof layer, which is actually the first base layer of the sports floor of the gym. The function of the cushion is very important. I will explain it to you below.

There are many types of elastic cushion materials, including PU, raw rubber, recycled rubber, PVC, etc., of which the most used should be raw rubber. The raw rubber has a small taste, and the continuous anti-aging time can reach 20 years. The appearance of this structure not only makes the sports floor more suitable, but also provides shock absorption for the system.
There will be some space left between the elastic cushion and the ground, which will create resonance. Under certain circumstances, it can absorb sound of a certain wavelength. The principle of use is the same as that of sound-absorbing panels. The first sports floor of the gym does not have this structure. The elastic cushion is also to alleviate the direct conflict between the force and the ground, further increasing the safety factor of the ground.
