Langley School is a secondary school with academy status situated in the Borough of Solihull, West Midlands.
With a requirement to obtain the best sports floor on the market Langley School turned to international flooring specialist Gerflor to supply over 680m2 of their world-class Olympic pedigree Taraflex vinyl sports flooring.
As the main hall would also have to facilitate other non-sports activities including exams the school also opted for Taraflex Bateco, which is a moveable solution for protecting multi-sports floors falling on non-sporting activities.
Outlining their decision to specify Gerflor sports products Mark Brown, Facilities Manager at Langley School said: “We decided to upgrade our sports flooring surface to Taraflex for the duty of care and protection qualities the product delivers, which is safer and more comfortable for our students.
“The durability of the Taraflex from Gerflor is absolutely first class and truly fit for purpose for many years to come.”
Commenting on the project Wayne Andrews, Gerflor Key Account Sports and Education Manager North said, “Mark Brown was extremely pleased with the initial consultation and the free site survey and follow up.
“Mark is incredibly delighted with the end result and service Gerflor offered along with FLR Group’s excellent installation.”
The installation of the new Taraflex® Evolution sports floor at Langley School would be undertaken by the Solihull-based FLR Group.
Adam Kaid, Contracts Manager, FLR Group said: “We know that the Gerflor Taraflex sports flooring is meeting and surpassing expectations. We are really delighted with the end result and would definitely install and if given the opportunity specify Gerflor again.”
