Temple University

Independence Blue Cross Student Rec Center

Installation projects within educational institutions often pose unique time and budgetary constraints. This was true for Philadelphia’s Temple University, with the renovation of two campus fitness facilities – Independence Blue Cross Recreation Center (IBC) and Temple University Fitness facility (TUF).

With foot traffic of 1,100 students, staff, faculty, and alumni per day, the facilities experience exceptional wear and tear. Additionally, TUF is located in close proximity to other businesses, creating a unique need to not only provide safety for members but also reduce noise and impact disruption. 

Gym floors need to withstand heavy traffic, protect against dropped weights and heavy equipment, safeguard gym-goers, and most importantly, be easy to maintain. REGUPOL aktivpro does this and more.

Each 2' x 2' x 1" modular tile consists of a factory molded waffle bottom base topped with a wear layer for design and color. Inside is a proprietary inner layer for stability and durability. Its design provides superior noise and shock absorption, and it can be installed with adhesive or dowels, so no adhesive is required.
