Product Overview
The Economy Si‑PU Community Court is designed for public parks, housing estate game areas, and budget‑conscious schools that need a cushioned, multi‑sport surface without premium pricing. The system uses a reduced elastic layer thickness (2‑3 mm one‑component PU) and a single reinforcement coat, totalling 3‑4 mm. Shock absorption is 25‑35% – softer than hard acrylic but firmer than professional sports courts. The waterborne PU top coat provides good UV stability (4‑6 years colour retention) and slip resistance. All underlayers are one‑component – no mixing, fast application.
✅ Ideal for: community basketball half‑courts, park tennis and pickleball courts, housing estate play areas, school recreational courts, and low‑traffic multi‑sport zones.
