Professional FAQ: Technical Inquiries
The premium-grade formula combines thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and stabilized polypropylene with UV inhibitors (HALS technology) and anti-static additives. The specific blend ratio is proprietary, but laboratory analysis shows 63% polymer, 22% mineral stabilizers, and 15% impact modifiers.
Our gem pattern features a patented multi-directional diamond texture with 0.8-1.2mm peak height variation. This configuration achieves optimal compromise between traction coefficient (0.72) and rotational slip control, significantly reducing non-contact injury rates compared to conventional surfaces.
Testing confirms 98% surface water dissipation within 15 minutes during simulated 50mm/hr rainfall. The underside features micro-channel matrix drainage with flow capacity exceeding 200L/min/m², ensuring no ponding even during extreme weather events.
Bi-weekly mechanical sweeping and quarterly deep cleaning are recommended. We provide specialized cleaning equipment that removes debris from the micro-textured surface without damaging the material. Alkaline cleaners (pH 7-9) are approved, while solvents must be avoided.
Laboratory freeze-thaw testing (ASTM C666) showed no cracking or degradation after 100 cycles of -20°C to +20°C transitions. The compound contains cryogenic stabilizers that maintain flexibility at -40°C, outperforming standard PVC surfaces.
According to EN 12235 testing, the surface maintains ≥90% ball rebound consistency across the entire court surface (±1.5%). This uniformity meets ITF Category 1 certification requirements for professional tennis venues.
Absolutely. The rolling resistance coefficient (0.055) and surface regularity (≤2mm variance per 3m) comply with International Wheelchair Basketball Federation (IWBF) facility standards. Optional court markings meet international specifications for para-athletics.
Quality Assurance and Certifications
All production undergoes stringent quality control with six-stage verification at our 40,000m² manufacturing facility in Hebei Province. Our systems meet the highest international standards.
"Third-party testing confirms that advanced polymer sports surfaces like Langning's Gem Pattern system reduce lower extremity injuries by 18-22% compared to conventional alternatives while maintaining competition-level performance characteristics."
