    Fully plastic polyurethane track

    Executive Summary All-plastic polyurethane (PU) track—sometimes called full PU or solid PU running track—is a seamless, sheet-like, elastomeric racing surface made entirely of polyurethane binders and PU-based wear bars, without the prefabricated rubber mat or SBR base course typical of "Sandwich or" hybrids » systems. It provides excellent mechanical consistency, strong rebound resistance, weather resistance and long service life.

All plastic polyurethane track: environmentally friendly, durable and all-weather sports surface

Introduction

The all-plastic polyurethane track represents the pinnacle of Moderan sports surface technology. Constructed exclusively from polyurethane elastomers, this type of treadmill provides superior performance, durability, and environmental compatibility. Unlike hybrid or sandwich systems, the all-Plastic track features a uniform composition with full PU without recycled rubber fillers in the base, making it ideal for professional level athletics, elite training facilities and high-traffic stadiums.

Featuring seamless release, weather resistance and splash tolerance, the all-plastic polyurethane track is not only a high-performance surface, but also an environmentally friendly solution that meets global safety and sustainability standards.


Key Features of All plastic polyurethane treadmill

1. 100% polyurethane composition

Unlike composite or hybrid systems that use SBR (recycled rubber) base layers, this track uses only high quality polyurethane from the base to the surface, providing consistency in mechanical and elastic properties.

2. Excellent athletic performance

  • Shock Absorption: Optimized for athletes' joint protection and energy return

  • Traction: Excellent slip resistance in dry and wet conditions

  • Splash Resistance: Suitable for spikes up to 9mm, ideal for sprinting and jumping.

3. Free and pore-free structure

  • No porosity means reduced risk of water infiltration or bubbles

  • Smooth yet textured finish provides optimal grip for runners

4. Weather resistant

This track system works exclusively in different climates:

  • Ultraviolet: Retains color and elasticity under intense sunlight

  • Cold flexible: does not crack or decompose at sub-zero temperatures

  • Prepare for rain: non-slip properties remain effective even in wet conditions

5.Environmentally friendly and low-grade materials

  • Manufactured using low VOC polyurethane resins

  • Free of heavy metals and harmful plasticizers

  • Meets PAH (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon) Safety Standards.

Application of all-plastic polyurethane tracks

1. Places of international competitors

All plastic PU tracks are certified for use at Olympic and international athletics events. Their precise mechanical characteristics and surface consistency ensure precise competition timing and peak performance.

2. University and professional training site

Designed for high endurance, these tracks have withstood tough, daily use from professional teams, collegiate athletes and elite coaching.

3. multi-purpose stadiums

Due to their weather resistance and anti-SLIP texture, they are ideal for multi-sports and community stadiums that host a variety of events throughout the year.

4. Indoor and outdoor athletics fields

Low Odor, Low VOC systems make this track equally suitable for indoor arenas, while the UV properties ensure outdoor performance.


Installation overview

Step-by-step installation process

  1. Sub-base preparation

    • Must be well leveled concrete or asphalt

    • Moisture content<5%, наклон поверхности ~ 1% для дренажа

  2. Primer layer

    • Polyurethane primer ensures strong adhesion to the substrate

  3. PU base layer

    • Apply using pavers or ball

  4. Intermediate sealing (optional)

    • Ensures that any micro autopires are sealed before the top layer

  5. PU wear layer

    • High definition polyurethane mixed with EPDM granules or pre-pigmented PU

  6. Line marking

    • Apply after complete curing using abrasion resistant polyurethane or acrylic paints


Maintenance and durability

Routine maintenance

  • Regular sweeping and mopping to remove dirt and debris

  • Check for minor damage annually

  • Repaint stripe lines every 3–5 years

Durability

  • Service life: 10–15 years depending on intensity of use

  • Retransmission: Only the top layer may require renewal after long-term use

Repair options

  • Localized damage can be cut and repaired with fresh PU material

  • Full version for re-importation without dismantling the base


Compliance with the environment and safety

All plastic PU bubbles are designed with human health and environmental safety in mind:

  • Replacements for SBR without PAH or Virgin PU used throughout

  • Pigments without heavy metals

  • No chlorinated solvents in installation or maintenance

  • Complies with REACH, ROHS and EN 14877 Standards
