Kirksville, MO - Gymnasiums aren’t just for sports anymore. One smart investment can easily turn a school or community center gym into a multi-purpose space with the potential to generate revenue and foster community spirit.

COVERMASTER® reached out to A.T. Still University (ATSU) in Kirksville, Missouri in late 2019, after hearing the school was renovating the Thompson Campus Center (TCC), a hub for students and staff interested in sports and fitness. The three-phase renovation would see the facility grow from 1,200 to 4,000 square feet in functional space, including the installation of a new maple basketball court. Investing in quality gym floor covering would not only protect the new surface but allow the center to use the space for non-athletic events.

Last September, eight sections of ULTIMA 5000™ gym floor protection were delivered to the TCC, along with an ULTIMA SERIES COVERMATE II™ roller rack, COVERCLEAN™ brush, and tape dispenser. The dual-sided gym floor tarps in neutrino and dark grey are updating an older COVERMASTER® gym floor covering system that helped extend the life of the original floor.

The ULTIMA 5000™ gym floor cover is the thickest, most durable cover from COVERMASTER®. Designed for high frequency use, the ADA Compliant slip-resistant cover has a decorative ripple-patterned top surface that’s suitable for any event. Investing in floor covering for gym floors is the best way to prevent damage caused by high heels, chair and table legs, and other heavy or abrasive items.
