Artificial Turf Installation for Gyms

We’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of installing our artificial turf. From ground preparation to the final details, each stage is designed to ensure a professional, long-lasting result tailored to its intended use.

This guide will help you understand the full process, answer common questions, and know what to expect during installation.

A. Preparation Phase

1. Cleaning the Area and Unrolling the Turf

Before installation, it’s essential to thoroughly clean the surface by removing dust, sand, and debris, as a dirty base can affect adhesion and cause the turf to come loose over time.

Once the surface is clean, unroll the turf and let it rest for 24 hours so it can regain its shape and any wrinkles can smooth out. If necessary, use light weights and take this time to check the measurements.

Note for installations with multiple pieces across the width: In installations over 4 m wide (or when lateral joints are required), it is common for the narrower rolls to have contracted slightly more. This is not an issue —they can be stretched—, but it is advisable to anticipate this from the outset and place the pieces side by side before fixing them to ensure a perfect fit.

2. Outlining the Perimeter

To ensure proper installation, you must first mark the perimeter of the track using chalk. This will help you position the adhesive tape accurately. Once you lift the turf to apply the tape, you’ll know exactly where to place it.

3. Adhesive Tape Application

Lift half of the turf, remove the backing from the double-sided adhesive tape, and place it around the perimeter, ensuring the corners are well secured. Then, apply another strip in the centre. Make sure the entire surface is firmly adhered to the floor to avoid wrinkles during exercises such as sled pushes, and ensure the tapes are placed in the same direction as the sled’s movement to prevent friction that could hinder sliding.

Note for installations with multiple pieces across the width: As explained in point 1, the design should be stretched and aligned progressively along the lateral joint so that the rolls fit together perfectly.

Important: Place all tapes in the same direction as the sled’s movement to avoid a braking effect.

4. Final Track Securing

Once the tape has been secured along the perimeter and center, remove the remaining protective film from the adhesive tape and carefully lay down the half of the turf you had lifted. Repeat the process with the other half. If needed, place weights on the turf and let it rest for 24 hours to ensure optimal adhesion.

5. Final Vacuuming

Once the turf is fully secured to the floor, vacuum the surface to remove any loose fibers. With this final step, the installation is complete and ready for use.
