Basketball is a sport that can be enjoyed precisely because you like it and love it. Our LDK Sports common basketball court flooring materials include cement flooring, silicon PU flooring, acrylic flooring, PVC flooring and wood flooring. Their respective advantages and disadvantages are as follows:
Basketball court concrete floor:
Cement floor: Cement floor is the traditional court floor material, which is mainly made of cement or asphalt.
The advantages of cement ground are: strong and durable, smooth, good anti-skid performance, low maintenance cost. It can be used both indoors and outdoors and is suitable for rougher basketball games and training.
The disadvantages are also very obvious: cement floor is hard and not flexible, easy to produce impact and pressure on the joints and muscles, increasing the risk of injury to athletes. At the same time, the cement floor for the ball rebound effect is poor, the ball rolling speed is faster, not easy to control.
Silicon PU floor is a floor material that has emerged in recent years and is very popular because of its beautiful appearance and other advantages.
Main advantages: Silicon PU has good elasticity and shock absorption effect, which can ease the impact of athletes and reduce the risk of injury. It also provides good ball rebound effect and control, which helps to improve athletes’ skill level.
Main disadvantages: Silicon PU floor maintenance costs are relatively high, requiring regular cleaning and maintenance. When used outdoors, plastic floors are susceptible to the effects of sunlight and climate and can suffer from color fading and aging.
Basketball court acrylic floor:
Acrylic is also a flooring material that has risen in recent years and is highly regarded for its suitability for outdoor use, low cost and other advantages.
Advantages of acrylic:
Good weather resistance: acrylic basketball court has good UV and weather resistance, suitable for outdoor use, not easy to be affected by sunlight and climate.
Relatively low cost: relative to the silicone PU basketball court, acrylic basketball court price is more affordable.
Fast installation: acrylic basketball court construction speed, can be quickly installed and completed.
Disadvantages of acrylic:
Less elastic: compared to silicone PU basketball courts, acrylic basketball courts have less elasticity and shock absorption, which may increase the risk of injury to athletes.
There is a certain risk of slipping: acrylic basketball court surface is more smooth, when wet may increase the risk of slipping.
Wooden flooring for basketball courts:
Advantage: wood flooring is the most common indoor basketball court flooring material, with good shock absorption and elasticity, which can provide good sports support and control. The smooth surface of wood flooring is conducive to the rolling of the ball and the movement of athletes.
Disadvantage: Wooden flooring is expensive to maintain and requires regular waxing and upkeep. Changes in ambient humidity and temperature may affect wood floors, leading to warping and damage. Because of the sensitivity of wood flooring to water and moisture, it is not suitable for outdoor use.

PVC flooring for basketball courts:
PVC flooring is also a very popular basketball court flooring material, which is advantageous for environmental protection, wear-resistant and good anti-skid performance. Playing on the PVC floor can effectively reduce the impact on the knee joints, but also provides good anti-skid performance.
The disadvantages of PVC flooring are equally obvious: the price is higher, and for the basketball court in cold environments, the low-temperature brittleness of PVC flooring requires special attention.
