Athletic Tracks
World-Class Track Systems, Engineered for Speed
We design and build athletic tracks that meet World Athletics standards for speed, resilience and safety. From sub-base preparation to the final coloured wear layer, every step is controlled to deliver consistent force reduction, vertical deformation and friction.
Systems include in-situ elastomer layers, prefabricated sheets, or hybrid builds—specified for your climate, events calendar and budget.
*Target range depends on system selection and certification class.
Why Our Tracks Perform
Certified Performance
Designed for World Athletics testing: force reduction, deformation, friction.
Speed & Traction
Optimised surface energy return and macro/micro-texture for grip.
Durability
UV-stable binders, calibrated EPDM and robust detailing for long service life.
Drainage & Base Integrity
Engineered base and falls to manage water and protect layers.
Clear Marking
High-contrast lines and event markings with precise geometry.
Lifecycle Value
Maintainable top coats, patch repair strategies and predictable re-top cycles.
System Build (Surface to Sub-Base)
- Synthetic Rubber Surface: Coloured PU-bonded EPDM granules providing texture, grip, and weather-resistant performance for running tracks.
- Asphalt Base: Precision-graded asphalt layer delivering stability, smoothness, and long-term durability for the athletic surface.
- WMM (Wet Mix Macadam): Load-bearing structural layer offering uniform support and strength beneath the asphalt.
- GSB (Granular Sub Base): Free-draining granular layer engineered for foundational stability and effective water management.
- Compacted Earth: Well-compacted formation layer trimmed to required levels and slopes to support the full system.
Event areas (jumps, throws) receive tailored detailing for take-off boards, sand pits, cages and gutters.

Maintenance Programme
Planned care preserves grip, colour and performance:
- Regular surface cleaning and debris removal
- Algae/moss control where required
- Joint/seam inspections and repairs
- Periodic re-texturing or recoating plan
- Compliance checks for force reduction & friction
Performance & QA
Key Metrics
- Force reduction & vertical deformation
- Friction / slip resistance (wet & dry)
- Planarity & thickness uniformity
- Colour/texture uniformity
Handover
- Tolerance checks: geometry, lane widths, radii
- Certification testing (as required)
- O&M manual + training
- Post-handover support
