Case Study

Dale Youth Boxing Club

Before the devastating Grenfell Tower fire in June 2017, its first floor was home to the Dale Youth Boxing Club which was both a valued local resource and one of the best boxing clubs in the country. The BBC’s flagship renovation programme DIY SOS has, with the help of international flooring specialist Gerflor rebuilt this community hub and boxing gym. The new gym was needed a selection of top-flight flooring products to enable the club to re-emerge once again as a vital hub within the community. 

The installer, Kent-based Arcadia Flooring installed three of Gerflor’s world- renowned sports flooring products – Taraflex® Comfort, Taraflex® Performance and Taraflex® Surface. Seda Sadrettin, Sales Manager, Arcadia Flooring commented, “We are hugely grateful for the incredible donation of Gerflor for the sports flooring”. 

If given the opportunity to influence the specification for similar works we would definitely encourage clients to choose Gerflor because the products are both aesthetically pleasing as well as great quality… We are hugely grateful for the incredible donation of Gerflor for the sports flooring.
