With experience gained from manufacturing solid hardwood floors since the 1930's, Junckers has the technical expertise to design and supply the optimal performing high quality sports flooring.

Our sports flooring solutions suit all indoor sport and activity areas, including, gyms, fitness flooring, athletic facilities, and multipurpose rooms. We have manufactured basketball floors and dance floors for many satisfied customers, and are a substantial supplier of sports floor systems all over the world.

Junckers sports floors perform with unique area-elastic characteristics and this gives athletes the ultimate freedom of movement, protects against injury and ensures that they can achieve their best. The floors are created for generations of use and it is not unusual to see Junckers wooden floors in sport halls 50-60 years old.

SPORTS FLOORING

PORTABLE SPORTS FLOORING

FAST AND EASY TO INSTALL

To make it easy and fast to install the floor, Junckers sports floor boards have uniform lengths of 3700 mm and cover approx. 0.5 m². All floor boards are tongue and groove jointed all round.

READY TO USE WHEN FITTED

Junckers floors are always supplied prefinished with lacquer from the factory. This makes the floor ready to use right after installation.
A prefinished floor eliminates the risk of human error when sanding and lacquering on site and avoids using lacquers of unknown quality. Floors sealed with lacquer from the factory ensure high quality and save on site labour costs.

SURFACE OUT OF THE ORDINARY

The lacquer used for our floors is an extremely hard-wearing polyurethane lacquer, which is applied in several coats.
Junckers own product development team has developed this lacquer and it is produced in our own manufacturing facilities in Denmark.

EXTREMELY STABLE AND DURABLE

We take far longer than normal over the drying process to ensure that the movements occurring naturally in wood are fully controlled and kept to a minimum. Therefore a Junckers sports floor causes no challenges when humidity levels change through the year.

Our Beech and Maple sports floors are dried using Junckers unique press drying method. This process creates high strength and an indentation resistance of the floor board that will usually exceed that of similar boards dried using normal methods.

LONG LIFE AND LOW COSTS OF MAINTENANCE

Our floors are easy to clean, maintain and are fully repairable.
On a daily basis the floor only requires sweeping or a machine cleaning using as little water as possible.
To protect and ensure long life of the floor we recommend occasionally a light sanding and re-sealing.

CHOOSING YOUR SOLID WOOD FLOORING

UNCOMPROMISING QUALITY AND STRONG CRAFTSMANSHIP.

Junckers sports floors are made of 100% solid hardwood. There are no intermediate layers of alternative materials in the floor boards that can come apart. Junckers sports floors have a full 22mm thickness of hardwood, and this makes them very strong and stable. The floor boards are made from two rows of staves assembled by means of a carefully machined double dovetail joint. A solution which uses the timber efficiently without compromising the quality.

FLOOR SAFETY AND PERFORMANCE

The standard relates to both safety and sports technical properties and the most important key factors are described below.

Friction

Correct friction is important when ball players move rapidly on the floor, and the ideal friction rating is between 80 and 110. A friction value less than 80 makes the floor too smooth, and above 110 makes the floor too rough.

Rolling load

The floor’s ability to withstand rolling loads is important for example where trolleys and retractable seating are used. Test results display whether the floor can withstand a rolling load of 1,500 N (approx. 150 kgs).

Vertical deformation

The floor’s ability to absorb shock depends on its ability to flex when exposed to a dynamic load. Test results display the floor’s vertical deformation in mm when exposed to a dynamic impact equivalent to that of light jogging.

Shock absorption

A shock absorbing floor minimises the risk of injuries. Testing measures the percentage of impact energy absorbed by the floor when landing a jump.

Ball bounce

A good ball bounce increases the ball control and the speed of the game. Test results display the rebound achieved by the floor as a percentage of the rebound measured on a concrete floor.
