Innovation
By harnessing the attributes of VCR, the company designs innovative surfaces that make people's lives better by increasing safety, ergonomic and acoustic performance. Made with reclaimed rubber materials, Baller Rally Class II is hygienic because of its heat-welded installation and provides comfort underfoot. It incorporates technology for ideal friction for athletic deceleration, returns energy to its users, reduces structure borne noises as well as lowers in-room impact sound, has a force reduction of 26.9% and an energy restitution of 55.9%. With itsTRU™ technology, the company’s proprietary manufacturing process, the products help people perform better and do what they love longer by reducing impact, supporting joints, reducing fall-related injury risk and mitigating noise.

A tire’s main functions are to support a vehicle’s weight, provide traction and absorb shock. When transforming tires into performance flooring, those attributes are elevated and provide more safety, ergonomics and acoustics. The company has developed energy-efficient manufacturing processes that do not include smokestacks, use minimal water and little or no heat, and reuse its own scrap to minimize waste.

Product Detail
Ideal for game courts, the Baller Rally Class II surface layer is comprised of a 2mm heterogeneous vinyl surface with a base layer of 12mm of Vulcanized Composition Rubber (VCR), providing excellent safety and ergonomic performance. The high-performance flooring product’s VCR base layer is fusion-bonded with the company’s proprietary itsTRU® technology manufacturing process used to build unique surfacing.
