The CONIPUR M Green Track That Powered Madrid’s Record-Breaking Championships
This past weekend, Madrid hosted the 2025 European Athletics Team Championships First Division — and it wasn’t just the athletes who made history. At the centre of this extraordinary event was the distinctive CONIPUR M green track at Estadio de Vallehermoso — a surface that combined cutting-edge technology with striking design to deliver exceptional performance in demanding conditions.
A Championship of Records
The statistics from Madrid 2025 tell the story of a championship where talent, determination, and surface technology came together to deliver outstanding results. These were the most Championship Records ever set at a European Athletics Team Championships — an achievement made even more remarkable given the challenging temperatures.
Across three days of intense competition, with temperatures soaring to 38 degrees Celsius, athletes rose to the occasion. The synergy between world-class talent and a world-class track produced unprecedented outcomes: 13 Championship Records, 2 world-leading performances, 5 European-leading performances, 19 national records, 74 personal bests, and 96 season’s bests. Madrid 2025 will be remembered as the most successful European Athletics Team Championships ever in terms of records.
European Athletics President Dobromir Karamarinov:
“The unique green track created by European Athletics preferred suppliers CONICA in Madrid’s Estadio Vallehermoso proved to be a superb surface for athletes to show the very best of themselves.”
Athletes and coaches alike praised the track’s resilience under tough conditions.
The CONICA Difference
The layered polyurethane design of the CONIPUR M system provided the ideal balance of firmness and elasticity, helping athletes maximise speed and reduce fatigue — even in searing heat. Its weather-resistant properties ensured that performance remained consistent throughout the competition, demonstrating once again why CONICA surfaces are trusted at the highest level of sport.
Another key advantage: all CONICA systems are seamless, eliminating weak points and areas of energy loss. This ensures optimal force transmission and long-term durability — essential for peak performance in top-level competitions.
A Legacy for the Future
Madrid 2025 will be remembered not just for its records, but for the determination of the athletes who excelled in demanding conditions — and for the track that helped them do it. The CONIPUR M green surface at Estadio de Vallehermoso played a key role in enabling these historic performances.
