“After several tests conducted by acoustics experts, BigJag proved to be the solution with the best results. This factor, along with Pavigym’s commitment to environmental sustainability, was key in our decision to install this solution.”.
The client
Sit, a leading fitness centre focused on offering top-tier training facilities, recently revamped its strength training zones, including free weights and lifting areas. The gym’s commitment to providing an optimal experience for both its members and surrounding community led them to seek a flooring solution that could address persistent noise issues and withstand high-impact usage.
Sit faced ongoing noise issues from heavy weight drops in its free weights and lifting zones, disrupting both gym members and nearby businesses, leading to complaints. The existing flooring couldn’t withstand the impact, showing wear and requiring frequent maintenance.
Sit needed a flooring solution with superior acoustic insulation, durability, a sleek aesthetic, and easy installation and maintenance to minimise disruptions.
The Solution: BigJag L
Highest acoustic properties. Designed to reduce noise. It absorbs the sound of heavy weights being dropped, making the gym quieter. This means members can focus better, and there are fewer complaints from nearby businesses and residents.
Elegant finish and High resistance. Built to last, BigJag can handle heavy weights and constant use without wearing out. It stays strong and looks good even in busy areas like weightlifting zones. This durability means less maintenance and longer-lasting floors.
Easy to install and maintain. Simple to put in place and easy to keep clean. Its modular design means it can be installed quickly, reducing downtime for the gym. Plus, the floors are easy to maintain, helping to keep the gym looking professional with minimal effort.
The Result
Quiet training environment. The noise generated by heavy lifting activities has been dramatically reduced, alleviating complaints from neighbouring businesses and creating a quieter atmosphere inside the gym.
Less damages. Less costs. BigJag’s robust construction has proven highly durable, withstanding the high-intensity use in the weightlifting zones without any signs of wear or degradation.
Premium aesthetics. The gym’s aesthetic has been elevated thanks to BigJag’s modern design. Its premium virgin rubber, specially designed for fitness facilities, not only reflects environmental consciousness but also perfectly complements Sit’s aesthetic.
“We’ve been very happy with how BigJag has addressed our noise challenges. It has created a quieter environment, making it easier for members to focus on their workouts without bothering anyone around.”
