SportsEdge® once again leads the sports construction industry in designing revolutionary products that improve safety for athletes, improve aesthetics and reduce costs. The various Rubber FlexEdge Systems are the latest innovation and addition to our SportsEdge product line.
All FlexEdge products are manufactured from recycled crumb rubber and bonded with and encapsulated by a urethane binder. These items are built to reduce to risk of injury from athletes falling on concrete or metal parts imbedded in the field. Compare the FlexEdge L-Curb at 65 G’s with concrete at 1000+ G’s. Why take a chance?
Field items that used to be built with Portland cement concrete (perimeter curbs) and complex and expensive aluminum forms (jump pits) are replaced by easy-to-install, durable rubber.
The latest game-changing innovation from SportsEdge is the FlexEdge™ Long Jump Pit System. No longer is a designer or owner limited to unsafe concrete curbs or complex and expensive aluminum forms. Made completely from recycled rubber and urethane binders, FlexEdge pits are attractive, affordable, easy to install and the safest solution for a potentially dangerous track event.
Athlete safety is the paramount concern in the design and construction of athletic fields. The FlexEdge Rubber L-Curbs are manufactured specifically for safely bordering synthetic turf fields. The L-Curbs can be used as a continual rectangular border for a stand-alone field, as a divider between two synthetic fields, or across the D-Zone behind the goal area…anywhere there would otherwise be a concrete border. In every application, only resilient rubber is exposed at the surface.
FlexEdge Beach Volleyball Courts improve athlete safety by eliminating potential dangers from more traditional wood, plastic and concrete borders. A FlexEdge court kit will create a 50’ x 80’ bordered area that will hold a 26.3’ x 52.5’ regulation court and provide a 10’ safety runout all around. Pre-manufactured corners and all of the accessories needed to complete the installation are included.
Synthetic turf baseball and softball fields provide the benefits of attractive yearround facilities and unlimited hours of playability. But certain challenges exist for the designer, contractor and owner when
it comes to the interface between the dissimilar materials used to build a field; synthetic turf with infill, infield clay mix and natural grass. Keeping a clean and well-defined separation between them is
important for the safety and appearance of the field.
