Higher, Faster, Smarter – Modern Synthetic Surfaces For Athletics

-High Quality Synthetic Surfaces For Your Requirements

PREPARING THE OPTIMUM SURFACE FOR TRACK AND FIELD ATHLETES

Polytan provides elastic synthetic surfaces for athletics facilities based on the sport-specific functional requirement: waterproof, in situ poured and water permeable, and structural spray-coated sports floorings. Local climatic conditions also play a role when selecting an outdoor sports surface.
For official, globally recognised athletics events, all Polytan synthetic surfaces can be certified in accordance with World Athletics requirements. In addition to classic brick red, they are also available in numerous UV-stable colours. These days, the trend is towards intense, bright colours, such as the famous Hertha blue of the Olympic Stadium in Berlin. Polytan synthetic surfaces are also available as sports hall floors.
