Playground Floors In Iowa
The city of Elgin, located in northeast Iowa, is a small town known as a great place to raise a family. It’s just a few hours or less from larger cities like Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Manchester, Waterloo and Waukon.The city council counted on Greatmats’ Playground Tiles to deliver flooring throughout its city park that looks attractive and performs well in all 4 seasons that Iowa delivers.
This charming, small Iowa town wanted the best looking and performing playground floor to install during a complete park renovation project. With the goal of offering a safety surface that is fall-height rated, while also being more inviting than sawdust, wood chips, or sand, the city realized that the 2.5 inch interlocking rubber playground tiles were a no-brainer.
Gym & Fitness Center Floors In Iowa
Cedar Falls, Iowa, also located in the northeast quadrant of the state, is home to FIT - Next Level Extreme Fitness, the best fitness club in the Cedar Valley offering a variety of evolving training opportunities and classes. Because it offers the best in fitness, it is outfitted with the best in flooring.FIT installed ½ inch thick 4x6 rubber fitness floor mats in its group fitness area, and under its weight training and cardio equipment. And as it expands and updates areas of the facility, FIT management loves how each time they order more of the high performing mats from Greatmats, they match right up to the old ones.
One representative of the gym noted, “You can’t do that with very many companies - to be able to put another ½ inch one right next to it, and have it be the same after six years.”
Not only are these mats performing well in their current facility, they also plan to install them in their new 10,000 square foot facility, as well. If you’re in the Cedar Falls neighborhood, be sure to check them out!
About 45 minutes north of Elgin is the Discover Happy Aerial Arts & Pilates facility in Decorah. This facility focuses heavily on aerial arts and fitness, and its staff needed the best safety mats to place underneath its equipment, which happen to be the Safety Gymnastic Mats at Greatmats.
They believe these mats cover all bases should anyone be in propulsion, orbiting, and fall out of a spin. They also work well to store, as they are conveniently sized.
Martial Arts Floors In Iowa
Clive and Pella Iowa are both home to some of central Iowa’s best martial arts schools, Triumph Martial Arts,
The owners believe that having the correct martial arts flooring surface is imperative. The flooring must hold up to both bare feet and shoes and allow for quick movements - while also offering enough comfort to allow for long training sessions. That’s why they chose Greatmats to provide their flooring.
They found the closed cell EVA foam Pro Taekwondo Martial Arts Mats to be perfect for their space. They can be used in any area of their facility, and they are super durable. Even when unappealing seasonal weather hazards - like an ice dam on the roof - cause water to leak into the center, they can just be picked up, dried off, and returned to the floor - without any damage.
The owners add, “The Greatmats that we’ve used for the past 5 years have been excellent and by far the best flooring that we’ve trained on.”
