Cast instead of rolled out running tracks!
20. March 2024
Discover why Conica’s innovative approach to running tracks sets us apart in the industry. With over 40 years of expertise in developing and installing running tracks, Conica is renowned as a market leader and a driving force in innovation. What makes our tracks unique? They are cast on-site, not simply rolled out like traditional tracks.
Manufacturing and installation
Our system components are delivered in liquid form and expertly cast on-site by trained professionals. This method offers numerous advantages over traditional rolled tracks. Cast tracks boast superior elasticity, enhanced protective properties, optimal mechanical and chemical resistance, and a longer service life. The jointless surfaces also make maintenance a breeze.
Another advantage is that casting allows for better leveling of uneven surfaces, a challenge often encountered with rolled materials. In curves, rolled tracks can present difficulties as the material may stretch unevenly when bonded to the substrate. Conversely, our cast tracks ensure consistent characteristics throughout, even in curves.
Unlike rolled tracks, which often suffer from issues with joints between individual sheets, our cast Conica tracks have no joints whatsoever. This eliminates potential problems during their service life, ensuring long-term durability and performance.
Sports characteristics and service life of the system
Cast Conica tracks are known for their durability and ability to retain their characteristics over time. In contrast, tracks made of rolled material may harden quickly, posing a challenge for athletes. Additionally, the risk of material breaking out of joints when athletes use spikes is a common issue with hard running tracks.
Costs and refurbishing options
Our cast running tracks are not only superior in performance but also more cost-effective than premium rolled products. When it comes to refurbishment, cast tracks offer flexible options, from simple facelifts to complete renewals. In contrast, rolled tracks typically require complete replacement or covering with a new prefabricated mat, which can be more expensive in the long run.
Experience the difference with Conica’s cast running tracks – unmatched performance, durability, and cost-effectiveness for athletes and facilities worldwide.
