KidsArea Flooring
Aria is the most important element in the design of safe children’s play areas, playing a crucial role in protecting children from injuries and providing a comfortable and enjoyable play environment. In a world where child safety is a top priority, the need for specialised flooring that meets the highest international safety standards is a necessity.
Technotrade Sports, as a leader in the field of Kids Area Flooring
, recognises that every step a child takes on these floors must be safe and protected. We specialise in the installation of high-quality tartan flooring specifically designed for children’s areas, combining absolute safety, long-term durability and visual appeal.
Your investment in high-quality Kids Area flooring means a safe play environment that protects children from fall injuries and provides a comfortable surface for play and movement in attractive, cheerful colours. We understand that every project has its own requirements, whether it is a nursery, a play area in a mall, a tourist resort, a hotel, a club, a public park or a high-end residential compound, so we offer customised solutions to suit every need.
Kids Area flooring requirements vary according to the type of facility and the target age group. Nursery floors need special specifications that take into account young children from two to five years old, with a focus on softness, shock absorption and beautiful colours that bring happiness to them and stimulate mental and motor development.
Play areas in malls and shopping centres, nurseries, tourist resorts, hotels, clubs, public parks or high-end residential compounds require flooring that can withstand heavy use and high traffic, with resistance to abrasion, easy to clean from stains and easy to clean and maintain. These areas need visually appealing designs that attract children and encourage active play.
Public parks and outdoor play areas need weather- and UV-resistant flooring, with the ability to drain water and resist climate change. Safety in the outdoor environment requires additional specifications to protect against slipping in wet weather.
Schools and kindergartens require flooring that combines safety and educational function, with the possibility of incorporating educational elements into the design such as numbers, letters and geometric shapes. These floors need to be highly resistant to intensive daily use.
This type of flooring is made from a material that is poured directly into the SBR (specified area), this type of flooring is characterised by high resilience and is mainly used in places that need a flat and impact-resistant floor. Cast rubber flooring is able to be moulded to the required area, making it ideal for irregularly shaped areas.
Mainly used in high-end children’s play areas, this multi-layered flooring consists of a base layer of SBR material (tiles, rolls or cast flooring), followed by a top layer of materials such as polyurethane or acrylic, which provides additional support and makes the floor more weatherproof and impact resistant.
These tiles consist of a single black layer or two layers where the bottom layer is black and the top layer is coloured (blue, red or green), and the tiles are reinforced with rubber granules.) The tiles are reinforced by adding rubber granules on the surface to increase the SBR hardness (abrasion resistance) and improve its flexibility, making it ideal for areas where high hardness is required while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Available in several materials such as (EPDM), EPDM, natural rubber and (SBR), SBR provides great coverage and is ideal for children’s play areas that require flexible and easy-to-install flooring, and has the ability to absorb shock, minimising the impact of injuries.
Tartan Rubber Flooring is the perfect choice for toddler areas, providing a soft surface that absorbs shock and minimises the risk of injury when falling. This high SBR type is made from quality rubber with an abrasion-resistant polyurethane top layer.
Graduated thickness of 50-15mm provides different levels of protection depending on the height of the toys and activities required. Bright colours and playful designs create a stimulating environment for children and encourage physical activity.
For outdoor areas, we offer weather-resistant tartan flooring with UV protection and resistance to cracking and fading. This type retains its resilience and bright colours even in extreme weather conditions.
The integrated drainage system prevents water pooling and ensures a safe surface even after rain. Anti-bacterial and anti-fungal materials keep the outdoor environment clean and hygienic.
Educational tartan flooring incorporates educational elements into the design, with colourful numbers, letters and geometric shapes that help learning while playing. This type is ideal for nurseries and schools seeking to integrate education with physical activity.
Interactive designs include floor games such as hopscotch, mazes, educational maps, tunnels, hills and plateaus, turning the floor into an effective learning tool. Contrasting colours and clear designs help develop children’s visual and motor skills.
The Kids Area Flooring process begins with a thorough site assessment that includes checking the floor level, substrate type and drainage requirements. This assessment is crucial to ensure a correct installation that is long-lasting and maintains safety features.
Preparation of the base requires special precision to ensure a flat and stable surface, with a base layer of concrete or asphalt depending on the type of site. Waterproofing systems protect the floor from moisture that can affect performance and durability.
Advanced application techniques utilise special moisture and heat resistant adhesives, with thermal welding of joints to ensure a uniform surface with no gaps or protruding edges that could pose a risk to children.
Comprehensive quality checks are carried out at every stage of installation, with tests for shock absorption, slip resistance and colour fastness. These checks ensure that the floor meets all required safety standards.
Technotrade Sports adheres to all international safety standards for children’s area flooring, including the European standard that specifies EN 1177 shock absorption requirements depending on the height of the games. This standard ensures that the floor provides proper protection for children.
ASTM sets additional standards for slip resistance, stability and durability, with rigorous testing of materials to ensure they are free of harmful or toxic substances. All materials used are certified safe for use with children.
Shock absorption tests are carried out according to different fall heights, ensuring that the floor provides the required protection for children of all HIC (Head Injury Criterion) ages. Values remain within the internationally defined safe limits.
Kids Area’s flooring design takes into account the psychology of colours and their impact on children’s development and behaviour. Bright and contrasting colours stimulate activity and vitality, while calming colours help with comfort zones and quiet activities.
Interactive designs include the shapes of animals, plants and cartoon characters, creating a fun and engaging environment that encourages play and exploration. These designs contribute to the development of children’s imagination and creativity.
Geometric and educational patterns help develop cognitive and motor skills, with designs that encourage group play and social interaction among children. The balance between beauty and function creates an ideal environment for healthy growth.
Kids Area flooring is designed to be easy to maintain and clean, with a smooth surface that resists stains and dirt. Daily cleaning requires only water and mild soap, with the possibility of using child-safe disinfectants.
Regular maintenance includes checking the condition of the surface and joints, repairing any minor damage before it gets worse. The floor’s resistance to wear and tear minimises the need for extensive maintenance and ensures a long life for your floor.
The Preventive Maintenance Programme includes regular safety and shock absorption checks, with detailed reports on the condition of the floor and any recommendations for maintenance or upgrading. This programme ensures that the highest safety standards are maintained throughout the life of the floor.
