Why choose Junckers?
Junckers stands on a foundation of exceptional craftsmanship, embodying an uncompromising approach to quality that ensures every product and service exceeds the highest standards.
- FAST AND EASY INSTALLATION
Due to having floorboards with uniform lengths of 12’ (3700mm) which cover approx. 5 square feet (0.5 m²). All floor boards are tongue and groove joined all round.
- READY FOR IMMEDIATE USE
All Sports flooring from Junckers comes prefinished from the factory, which makes them ready to use immediately for installation.
- STABLE AND DURABLE
Junckers Beech and Maple sports floors are dried using their unique press-drying method. This process imbues the floorboards with extreme strength and durability, ensuring they withstand the rigors of heavy use.
- LONG LIFE AND LOW COSTS OF MAINTENANCE
Junckers floorings are designed for ease of cleaning and maintenance. For daily upkeep, a simple sweeping or use of a cleaning machine with minimal water is sufficient. To further protect the floor and guarantee long life, we recommend occasional use of light sanding followed by re-sealing.
JUNCKERS SPORTS FLOORING SAFETY AND PERFORMANCE
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
