A re-coating is durable solution to restore linoleum sports flooring so that athletes can use it again safely and with pleasure.
Characteristics of a linoleum sports floor.
Linoleum can be recognized by its mottled texture. It is known for its natural abrasion and scratch resistance, ideal for intensive use. The material is composed of durable, natural raw materials such as linseed oil, cork and resin. Without a good protective coating, dirt, moisture and cleaning agents penetrate into the material and eat away at the natural materials first.

What are the benefits of re-coating?
Re-coating linoleum is preferable to waxing because coatings offer a harder, more wear-resistant top layer with longer life and less maintenance.
In addition, coated floors remain even and hygienic, without build-up or yellowing, and are more resistant to moisture and cleaning agents.
A coating does not require periodic stripping or renewal, is therefore less environmentally damaging and offers a more economical solution than wax in the long run.
Safe Sports Flooring only works with special sports technical coatings that meet the EN14904 standard. Because linoleum naturally has a high gloss, we use an extra matte coating.
- More environmentally friendly, less waste
- Proper roughness, gloss value
- Wear-resistant
- Extends lifespan
- Hygienic
- New coating where color and design can be customized.
- Re-coating is faster and cheaper solution than renewal
Pretreatment and alignment plan
We first repair any damage to the linoleum and the welds – the connecting joints between the linoleum strips. If you want new lines, we discuss the lineation plan so that it meets the latest standards and matches the sports facilities in the hall.
We apply new sports lines or a logo to the floor before coating. That way they are optimally protected and last much longer. Finally, we apply the transparent coating.
Color coating as an alternative
If the linoleum floor is badly damaged or you want a new lineation plan, after repair work, we first apply a color coating. Then we apply the lines and finish with the clear coating.
The result: a safe sports floor with a completely new look.
