Different Types of Tartan Flooring
When constructing tartan courts, the choice of flooring type is one of the key factors that directly affects the quality and performance of the court. Tartan types are more widely used than artificial grass, thanks to their ability to provide a flat, solid surface suitable for all types of sports. This is one of the factors that determine the price per meter of tartan in Egypt. Tartan types include the following:
1. Tartan, 13 to 15 mm thick, red or black. This type is widely used for sports floors. Tartan thickness ranges from 5 to 10 mm, and the color used depends on the location. This type is widely used, such as on football fields.
2. Tartan, 10 to 15 mm thick, red or black. This type is used for small playgrounds and children’s play areas.
3. Tartan for decorating gardens, parks, and family gathering areas. Its thickness ranges from 30 to 50 mm.
One of the essential steps in implementing tartan fields is choosing the appropriate type of flooring. At this stage, it’s important to determine whether to use tartan flooring itself, known for its high shock absorption and weather resistance, or to opt for artificial turf, which offers a natural appearance and excellent performance in certain applications.
This decision depends on several factors, most notably the type of sport the players will play, the geographic location of the project, the available budget, and long-term maintenance requirements. Therefore, options must be carefully considered to ensure the best possible performance for the playing surface, serving the project’s objectives.
How to Install Tartan Flooring
The installation of tartan flooring at Greengrass Company goes through several stages to ensure its quality and long-term use without any potential problems or errors. These stages are:
1. Site Inspection and Preparation: The installation of tartan flooring begins with a thorough inspection of the site where the flooring is to be installed. The surface is ensured to be level and free of any obstacles or materials that might impede the installation process.
2. Removing Obstacles and Leveling the Surface: If the surface contains any unevenness or defects, special leveling materials such as asphalt or polymer are used to ensure a flat and uniform base upon which the flooring can be installed.
3. Installing the base layer: After ensuring the surface is level, Greengrass installs a base layer of asphalt or polymer specifically designed for sports floors. This layer ensures the stability of the floor and its adhesion to the underlying surface.
4. Installing the rubber insulation layer: The rubber layer is installed over the base layer to ensure flexibility and good shock absorption, which contributes to reducing injuries when practicing various sports.
5. Installing the tartan layer: At this stage, the tartan layer, which consists of a mixture of synthetic rubber and other materials, is placed. It is carefully leveled using special machines to ensure even distribution across the surface.
6. Complete drying of the layers: The layers are left to dry and set completely for 24 to 48 hours, depending on weather conditions. This allows the layers to fully harden.
