Applications for Swisstrax Modular Flooring
Swimming Pool Flooring
Wet areas demand flooring that can handle constant moisture and the chemicals used in pools. Swisstrax excels here, offering:
Non-Slip Safety: With its ribbed design, the tiles are self-draining, ensuring that water doesn’t pool, significantly reducing slip risks.
Chemical Resistance: Chlorine and pool-cleaning products won’t damage the surface or cause discolouration, keeping the area pristine.
Temperature Tolerance: Perfect for outdoor pools where extreme heat or cold can be an issue, Swisstrax withstands temperatures from -30°C to 120°C without warping.
For swimming pool surrounds, Swisstrax adds both safety and style, with vibrant colour options to match your aesthetic while providing a durable surface for high-traffic areas.
Gym and Fitness Centre Flooring

High Load Capacity: With a 5120 PSI pressure rating, Swisstrax tiles can handle dropped weights, gym equipment, and heavy machinery without cracking.
Non-Slip Surface: Provides a secure footing for both high-intensity workouts and functional training sessions.

Whether for a commercial fitness centre or a personal home gym, Swisstrax combines durability with aesthetics to create the perfect workout environment.
Vehicle Showroom Flooring
For vehicle showrooms, first impressions are everything. Swisstrax flooring elevates your showroom with:
Sleek Aesthetics: The modular design and colour options create a modern, polished look that highlights the vehicles on display.
Durability Under Pressure: Capable of withstanding 35 tonnes static weight, Swisstrax easily supports any vehicle, from motorbikes to supercars.
Scratch Resistance: Unlike polished concrete or paint, Swisstrax resists scuffs, scratches, and stains, keeping the showroom floor immaculate.
A professional showroom deserves professional-grade flooring, and Swisstrax ensures your display area works as hard as you do.

Swisstrax vs Other Flooring Options
Swisstrax vs Epoxy Resin
Epoxy resin may seem like a popular choice, but it comes with significant drawbacks:
No Preparation Required: Swisstrax installs directly onto your existing surface, while epoxy requires grinding, etching, and curing time.
Faster Installation: Swisstrax tiles clip together in minutes without adhesives, making it a quick and hassle-free process.
No Room for Error: Unlike epoxy, where uneven application can lead to cracking or bubbling, Swisstrax guarantees a flawless finish every time.
Swisstrax vs Garage Floor Paint
Garage floor paint might look good initially, but it struggles under pressure:
Crack-Free Strength: Swisstrax supports 20 tonnes of rollover and 35 tonnes static weight, while paint cracks and peels under heavy loads.
Durable Finish: With 5120 PSI pressure capacity, Swisstrax tiles handle car jacks and tools effortlessly.
Scratch Resistance: Unlike paint, which chips and scratches, Swisstrax tiles stay pristine even with constant use.
Beware of Imitation Tiles
Not all modular flooring is created equal. Cheap imitation tiles may mimic the appearance of Swisstrax, but they lack its patented durability and quality. Inferior materials lead to cracking, warping, and poor performance over time. Gala Performance offers genuine Swisstrax tiles, backed by a 15-year warranty for peace of mind. Don’t risk your flooring—invest in the original.
