If your primary concern is making a space look bigger, flooring can make a massive difference. Cleverly chosen colours or designs in your gym flooring can utilise your areas better and create the illusion of a larger space.

When choosing a gym floor, you generally have more colour options.  This brings more choice of product and ways of designing and utilising your space.

Gym flooring is good for creating fitness zones. For example, if you want to separate your free weights area from your floor work zone, you can do this by using different types of flooring. This creates clear zones for specific exercises and can help to separate the facility efficiently. 

With a broader colour range to choose from, you can find something that perfectly fits with your brand image. This one is more relevant to commercial gyms; however, if you use your home gym to train clients as a personal trainer or instructor, then this applies to you as well. Flecked or coloured flooring is perfect for a professional gym for aligning your gym design with your company brand.  

Gym flooring doesn’t need to be boring. With patterned or coloured flooring, you have the benefits of premium rubber gym flooring with a colourful flair, make a small space feel bigger and align your gym to your brand image. Whether you choose block colour or flecked interlocking, choose a flooring solution that meets your needs, budget, and style.
