Key Advantages:

• Elastic layer uses 100% virgin EPDM (no recycled rubber) – UV life 8‑10 years

• Total thickness 5‑7 mm – high shock absorption (30‑45%)

• EPDM granules available in light colours to reflect heat (grey, beige)

• No hardening, fading, or cracking even in intense sun

• Water‑based, breathable, ITF Category 1‑2 (medium‑fast to fast)

Product Overview
The Premium EPDM Elastic Acrylic system is engineered for high‑UV climates – the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia, Australia, and Latin America. Unlike recycled SBR, which hardens and cracks after 3‑5 years of direct sun, virgin EPDM rubber contains built‑in UV stabilisers that resist degradation. The elastic layer is built to 4‑6 mm thickness using fine (0.5‑1.0 mm) EPDM granules mixed with a water‑based acrylic binder. Light‑coloured EPDM (grey, beige, light green) reflects up to 30% of solar heat, keeping the surface cooler. The system meets ITF Category 1‑2 (medium‑fast to fast) for competitive play.

✅ Ideal for: tennis academies in desert climates, international schools in tropical regions, public parks in high‑sun areas, and any outdoor court requiring 10+ year colour and performance stability.

Q: Is EPDM worth the extra cost in high‑sun regions?
→ Yes. Recycled SBR may need replacement after 4‑5 years, while EPDM lasts 10+ years. The total cost of ownership is often lower with EPDM.

Q: Do light‑coloured EPDM granules affect ball visibility?
→ No. The top colour coat determines the final court colour. The light elastic layer only helps with heat reflection, not the playing surface colour.
