Deland, FL – Putterman Athletics offers a full line of gym floor cover solutions designed to help schools, universities, recreation centers, and athletic facilities protect valuable flooring while transforming gymnasiums into flexible, multi-use spaces. FloorGard™, FloorGard™ Premium, and EnviroGard™ offer different levels of protection, material options, and finishes for events ranging from graduations and assemblies to concerts, banquets, conventions, and community gatherings.
Gym floors can be damaged by heavy foot traffic, shoes, tables, chairs, stages, rolling carts, equipment, spills, and other activities outside normal athletic use. Putterman’s gym floor cover systems create a protective layer over the playing surface, helping reduce scratches, scuffs, stains, moisture exposure, and everyday wear while allowing facilities to make greater use of their indoor spaces.
FloorGard provides a durable option made from 100% laminated vinyl polyester. The material has more coating on the top for durability and less on the bottom for better grip on the gym floor. Available in 22 oz., 27 oz., and 32 oz. options, FloorGard can be custom fabricated to meet a facility’s specific dimensions and can include logos and graphics for a branded finished appearance.
For facilities looking for additional performance options, FloorGard Premium is made from 100% vinyl-coated polyester (VCP) with a matte embossed, slip-resistant surface designed to withstand foot traffic, high heels, furniture, and busy event use. Available in 18 oz., 22 oz., 26 oz., and 32 oz., the VCP material is flame-resistant, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and resistant to rot and mildew.
EnviroGard offers a different approach to gym floor protection. Made from 100% recycled materials, the lightweight system looks like carpet and performs acoustically like carpet while protecting the floor underneath. EnviroGard is highly resistant to tears, slips, and stains and helps contain spills by wicking moisture. Its carpet-like finish can also help create a more polished environment for graduations, meetings, banquets, concerts, and other events held inside athletic spaces. Storing EnviroGard is easy with the EnviroGard Mobile Storage Rack.
“Gymnasiums are some of the most versatile spaces in a school or athletic facility, but the floor is also one of the biggest investments in that space,” said Jeff Mondor, Vice President of Sales at Putterman Athletics. “Having different floor cover options gives facilities the flexibility to protect that investment while choosing the material and finished look that works best for the way they use their gym.”
Putterman also offers storage and installation accessories designed to make gym floor covers easier for facility crews to manage. Mobile storage racks, power winders, tape, and dispensing systems can help simplify installation, removal, and storage, especially in facilities that regularly transition between athletic and non-athletic events.
Ideal for schools, colleges and universities, recreation centers, athletic facilities, and event venues, Putterman’s gym floor cover systems protect finished flooring while giving facilities greater flexibility to use their indoor spaces year-round.
