Plexipave is an acrylic multi-layer coating that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor tennis locations. Each layer contributes to the overall affect of the product and the finishing layer produces a surface ideally suited to tennis with less ball and shoe wear.
Plexipave attracts temperatures up to 5 –7c lower in comparison to asphalt or concrete playing surfaces and the final product is a richly coloured surface that is suitable for indoor and outdoor courts. Not only reacting to bounce and spin accurately, the speed of the surface can by adjusted according to court requirements. For these reasons Plexipave has been the premier choice for tournament installations around the world.

Plexipave needs no bagging or rolling, making the surface easy and economical to maintain. Plexipave may also be resurfaced by our authorised agents without the cost of having to remove the old surface.
Customisation
As every venue is subject to its own unique requirements Plexipave can be customised to suit climatic conditions, environmental circumstances as well as clientele needs and expectations.
All Plexipave products can be applied over asphalt, concrete or used to upgrade existing acrylic surfaces; thus protecting the underlying surface.
The number of layers determines the desired effect; for instance the addition of Plexicushion underlay would offer greater comfort to the player, by reducing body impact and muscle fatigue often felt in players' ankles and feet.
The system of layers is engineered to provide a smooth surface that encourages optimum performance as Plexipave can be adjusted to determine a desired speed of play.
Lastly, coloured acrylic line paint is applied to produce non-glare lines providing the finishing touch to a track or court.

Durability
Plexipave products are made of a seamless surface that is free of joins and weak spots that can make other surfaces vulnerable to deterioration and weather.
The surface itself has the ability to breathe without losing its bond to the original surface beneath, and the coating is UV stable, making Plexipave products truly resilient to rain and sun.
In comparison to other court and track options Plexipave is low-maintenance and economical as it can be resurfaced without the cost of having to remove the old surface.
