Pittsburg State University Converts Gym Space with Versatile CoverTile^™ Gym Carpet

Pittsburg, KS - Creating safe, flexible environments is just one way organizations worldwide have adapted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pittsburg State University (PSU) is no different, devising a way to convert their gym spaces into unique areas that promote physical distancing.

Five storage carts and 660 gym Platinum CarpetTiles were supplied in July by Covermaster^® to the Pittsburg, KS university, allowing the school to convert two separate gym spaces into multi-functional areas. The light grey Platinum CoverTile^™ will protect the Student Recreation Center’s hardwood gym floors during non-athletic events and help create new flex spaces for distancing.

The lightweight 3’ x 6’ carpet tiles are easy to install, remove, and store. Their sturdy bonded PVC backing ensures that tiles lay flat for years to come. Additional benefits to the gym floor carpet tiles include a highly stain-resistant surface and sound absorption.

The order of gym floor cover tiles was completed in less than two weeks, well in advance of the fall semester. Easily cleaned with a vacuum, CoverTile^™ gym carpet is an ideal option when extra space is needed for special events.
