Centaur Floors Plank Tile Fusion Bonded Modular Tile Flooring

Creating a "WOW" Factor with Plank & Tile

Feature Article

Gold's Gym in Stoughton, MA made a conscious choice to create an "upscale" facility. No "jock" image at this facility!

Gregg Maloley of Centaur assisted the owner with the selection of flooring for the facility. It included Plank luxury vinyl tile in a dark walnut for the reception area, the hallways, and the barber shop. Plank bamboo was used in the physical therapy offices. Tile luxury vinyl was used in the massage therapy rooms. To create a "wow" factor in the men's and women's locker rooms, Bolon luxury woven vinyl tiles were selected. The boxing area, cardio deck, selectorized section and the functional center were covered with Rubberflex Speckled S. The free weight area featured the 1 inch thick Elite tile. Now that made a statement! Even the stairs received custom treatment with a one piece nosing/tread/riser system from Nora.

Check out the photos accompanying this article to appreciate the classy look of this New England show place. Centaur is proud to have contributed to this awesome facility!

Centaur's Gymlastic Multipurpose Flooring

Gymlastic Goes Green!

Gymlastic is one of our most popular floors. It consists of a recycled rubber bottom layer with a top layer of poured polyurethane. In some parts of the country, the solvent-based polyurethane was prohibited for environmental reasons. Well, that is no longer a problem! We now offer a water based polyurethane topcoat that has the same wear-ability as the solvent based, an array of new colors, and meets the environmental standards of all states including California. The Gymlastic floor is an ideal choice for a multi purpose facility that is looking for a safe sports surface that is easy to maintain and will stand up to the rigors of meetings, food spills, recreational activities and sports. And now, it's "Greener" than ever.
