Ecore Whitepaper Explores Athletic Flooring’s Impact on Acoustics

Growing demand for access to modern fitness facilities is driving developers to include them in more multi-use buildings, where they often share walls with neighboring offices, residential units, or commercial spaces. To ensure that all building occupants and athletes remain productive and undisturbed, the acoustics of an athletic facility must be considered and appropriate flooring made a top priority. A new whitepaper from Ecore addresses why flooring is an integral component of athletic equipment, especially when it comes to acoustics.

“The Impact of Flooring on Acoustics in Athletics Facilities” explores how the intense sounds created in fitness settings can affect nearby spaces, potentially disrupting businesses or households, if left unchecked. Developers of modern fitness facilities understand the importance of sound management and are investing in the right surface technologies and materials that offer noise-reducing qualities while enhancing athletic performance and physical safety.
