Why Choose 16mm Thickness
The 16mm profile delivers optimal performance for serious training environments without the bulk of thicker options.
01 Optimal Shock Absorption
16mm thickness provides superior impact protection for dropped weights and high-intensity training while maintaining floor stability and equipment balance.
02 Commercial-Grade Durability
Dense rubber compound withstands continuous commercial use, heavy equipment traffic, and repeated impact without compression or degradation.
03 Non-Slip Textured Surface
Engineered surface texture delivers consistent grip across wet and dry conditions, reducing slip hazards and maintaining user confidence during intense workouts.
04 Easy Installation
500mm × 500mm tile format allows for flexible layout configurations, easy replacement of damaged sections, and straightforward DIY installation.
05 Noise Reduction
Significantly reduces sound transmission from dropped weights and equipment impact—essential for multi-tenant buildings and residential gym conversions.
06 Subfloor Protection
Protects concrete, wood, and other subfloors from damage caused by heavy equipment, dropped weights, and continuous high-traffic use.

Coverage Calculator
Quick Reference:
- 4 tiles = 1m² coverage
- 16 tiles = 4m² coverage (2m × 2m area)
- 40 tiles = 10m² coverage
- 100 tiles = 25m² coverage (5m × 5m area)
Pro Tip: Order 5-10% extra tiles to account for cuts, future replacements, and irregular room shapes.
The 16mm Advantage
16mm represents the sweet spot for gym flooring thickness—substantial enough to provide commercial-grade shock absorption and noise reduction, yet streamlined enough to maintain equipment stability and door clearances.
This thickness is specified by facility designers for commercial weight rooms, CrossFit boxes, and serious home gyms where performance cannot be compromised. The dense rubber matrix absorbs impact energy from dropped Olympic weights while the textured surface maintains consistent grip across all training conditions.
"16mm thickness delivers professional-grade performance without the installation challenges of thicker options."

Installation Guide
Installation Options
Interlocking: If tiles feature interlocking edges, simply connect tiles together for a secure, stable surface.
Loose Lay: For flat-edged tiles, position tiles side-by-side. The weight and friction provides stability without adhesive.
Adhesive Fix: For permanent installations, use polyurethane-based flooring adhesive for secure bonding to subfloor.
Installation Steps
- Ensure subfloor is clean, dry, and level
- Plan layout starting from the most visible corner
- Lay tiles working outward from starting point
- Cut edge tiles to fit using sharp utility knife
- Allow 24 hours for tiles to acclimate before heavy use
Maintenance Protocol
- Regular sweeping or vacuuming to remove debris
- Damp mop with neutral pH cleaner as needed
- Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaning tools
- Replace individual damaged tiles as needed

Frequently Asked Questions
How many tiles do I need for my gym?
Each tile covers 0.25m² (500mm × 500mm). Divide your total floor area in m² by 0.25 to get the number of tiles needed. For example, a 10m² area requires 40 tiles. Add 5-10% extra for cuts and future replacements.
Can I install these over existing flooring?
Yes, 16mm rubber gym tiles can be installed over most existing hard surfaces including concrete, wood, and tile, provided the subfloor is clean, dry, and level.
Will 16mm thickness protect my floor from dropped weights?
Yes, 16mm provides commercial-grade impact protection suitable for dropped Olympic weights, dumbbells, and heavy equipment. For extreme impact zones with consistent heavy drops, consider 20mm+ thickness.
Are these tiles suitable for outdoor use?
While primarily designed for indoor applications, these tiles can be used in covered outdoor areas. For fully exposed outdoor installations, contact us for UV-resistant options.
Can I replace individual damaged tiles?
Yes, one of the key advantages of tile format is the ability to replace individual damaged sections without replacing the entire floor. We recommend ordering extra tiles for future replacements.
