❓ Frequently Asked Questions

🟩 Is 50mm gym flooring too thick?

No — 50mm is the standard for Olympic lifting platforms where heavy barbells are dropped repeatedly.

🟩 Can this be used in an apartment gym?

Yes. 50mm rubber dramatically reduces vibration and floor shock, making it ideal for shared buildings.

🟩 Do I need underlay under 50mm tiles?

No, but adding acoustic underlay increases soundproofing performance further.

🟩 Can it be installed on timber floors?

Yes — this flooring protects timber from impact cracks and structural movement.

🟩 Are these tiles slip-resistant?

Yes — they are rated high-traction even when wet.

🟩 What is the best way to clean them?

Mop with warm water + mild detergent. Avoid chemical solvents and bleach.
