Fitness wood flooring | Gym flooring

Safety, performance, ease of maintenance and durability – these are some of the most important considerations when it comes to flooring in gyms, fitness studios and health clubs.

Installing a fitness floor which is safe for its members to use, minimising risk of injury and maximising performance is a top priority for Health Club Managers, but it is also important to create the right style and atmosphere with a floor that looks the part. Health clubs aim to appeal to clients in certain ways by conveying a strong style and set of values which their prospective clients will relate to. As in any interior, the floor is a vital element of the design and can strongly influence the way that clients feel about the space and their enjoyment of it.

Design your fitness floors with colours

Junckers range of solid hardwood floors includes a full spectrum of stained colours from white shades, grey and natural wood tones, to jet black; almost anything is possible. But Junckers also offers natural Beech, Ash, Maple and Oak, for the traditionalists. This opens the door to unlimited design options such as warmer tones for the meditative mood of yoga or wellness spaces or more vibrant hues to offer the right amount of pizzazz for Zumba and other fast-moving activities. Junckers narrow two-strip floorboards create clean lines which are ideal for contemporary or minimalist concepts whilst wide planks can be used to create a raw and earthy, or naturally rustic appearance. There is also the option of patterned floors, such as herringbone or Hexparket, which can be used to create unique interest to the space.

But it is not only about style. A studio floor must be durable and long-lasting to cope with the heavy demands of a full programme of daily workout classes. Junckers fitness floors have a proven track record in fitness studios, used in fitness centres all over the world and even in military training establishments as they have a reputation for being able to withstand very heavy use.

Day to day maintenance is fast and simple using Junckers purpose made cleaning products. Longer term the gym floor can be cleaned and resealed to keep the wood protected.
