EPDM Rubber Gym Flooring Roll - 5mm [10m x 1.2m]

EPDM Rubber Gym Flooring Roll - 5mm [10m x 1.2m]

12m² Coverage Per Roll | Fire Tested - Efl (SGS) | REACH Screened | Five Colour Options

The EPDM Rubber Gym Flooring Roll is the fastest and most cost-effective way to get a genuine rubber floor down across a large area. Each roll measures 10m x 1.2m x 5mm and covers 12 square metres in one continuous run - no tile joins every half metre, no clips, and far fewer seams for dust, sweat and grit to collect in.

Built from highly compressed rubber granule with a colour fleck through the surface, it lays flat, cleans easily and protects whatever is underneath it - concrete, tiles, timber, epoxy or an existing floor you don't want to damage.

Is 5mm the Right Thickness for You?

This is the honest version, because thickness is the only decision that really matters with rubber flooring.

5mm is a protective surface layer. It is the right choice for cardio zones, machine and rig walkways, functional training and stretching areas, studios, PT spaces, garage gyms and anywhere you want a hard-wearing, non-slip rubber surface over a floor you need to protect. It also takes the edge off footfall noise and machine hum, which makes it popular for upstairs studios and mezzanine levels.

5mm is not a drop zone. If loaded barbells or bumper plates are coming down onto it, the impact goes straight through to the slab. For lifting areas, step up to the 10mm roll for general free-weight floors, or lay 30mm EPDM tiles under platforms, racks and deadlift zones. Plenty of gyms run 5mm across the general floor and drop to tiles only where the weights live - that's the cheapest way to floor a facility properly.

Key Features

• 12m² per roll - 10m long x 1.2m wide, covers a large area fast with minimal seams
• 5mm compressed rubber - hard-wearing surface protection for floors, equipment and subfloors
• Five colour options - Blue, Pink, White and Green fleck, plus Plain Black
• Non-slip surface for safe, controlled movement in high-traffic areas
• Sound dampening - reduces footfall and machine noise, ideal for upstairs and shared-wall spaces
• Independently certified - EN 13501-1 fire classification, EN 14041 and EN 14904 compliance, REACH SVHC screened
• Water resistant, non-toxic and non-static - wipes clean, no chemical smell
• Easy to cut and fit around walls, racks, columns and doorways with a utility knife
• Loose-lay, tape or adhesive-fix depending on the traffic level

How Many Rolls Do I Need?

Each roll covers 12m². Measure your floor in square metres, divide by 12 and round up, allowing a little extra for cuts around walls, columns and equipment.

• Single garage (approx. 3m x 6m = 18m²) - 2 rolls
• Double garage (approx. 6m x 6m = 36m²) - 3 rolls
• Studio or PT space (approx. 8m x 6m = 48m²) - 4 rolls
• Cardio floor (approx. 10m x 6m = 60m²) - 5 rolls

Independently Tested & Certified

Our rubber flooring is independently tested and certified to European standards. Certificates are available on request for fit-out, tender and compliance documentation.

The EN 14041 and EN 14904 assessment covers slip resistance, water-tightness, shock absorption, wear resistance, rolling load resistance, electrical behaviour and content of dangerous substances - the characteristics a certifier, architect or facility manager will ask about on a commercial floor.

Why REACH matters: if you're fitting out a school, childcare centre, council facility or healthcare space, the SGS screening tested this rubber against 235 Substances of Very High Concern on the European Chemicals Agency candidate list and detected none above the reporting limit. A lot of cheap imported rubber flooring has never been screened at all.

Installation Tips

1. Prepare the area: the subfloor should be clean, dry, level and free of dust or debris
2. Let it relax: unroll the flooring and leave it flat for 24-48 hours - rubber holds a curl from the roll and will settle out on its own, faster in warm weather
3. Plan your runs: lay rolls in the same direction and butt each 1.2m edge tightly against the last
4. Cut to size: trim edges, corners and cut-outs with a sharp utility knife and a straight edge - score deep and repeat rather than forcing one pass
5. Secure the joins: loose lay works in low-traffic rooms; use double-sided flooring tape on the seams and perimeter for most gyms, or full adhesive for commercial and high-traffic floors
6. Finish the edges: tuck under skirting where possible, or seal the perimeter with tape or trim

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How much floor does one roll cover?
12 square metres. Each roll is 10m long and 1.2m wide. Divide your floor area by 12 and round up to get your roll count.

Is 5mm thick enough for weight training?
For general training, machines, cardio and functional work - yes. For dropping loaded barbells or bumper plates - no. 5mm protects the floor from scuffs, scrapes and equipment traffic, but it won't absorb a heavy drop. Use the 10mm roll for free-weight areas or 30mm EPDM tiles for platforms and drop zones.

Can you provide compliance documentation for a tender or commercial fit-out?
Yes. We can supply the SGS fire classification report (EN 13501-1, Efl), the EN 14041 and EN 14904 technical construction file, the SGS REACH SVHC screening report and the CE Attestation of Conformity. Contact us and we'll send the documents through.

How do I stop the roll curling at the edges?
Unroll it and leave it flat for a day or two before fixing anything down - rubber remembers the roll and relaxes out with time and warmth. Weight the corners while it settles, then tape or glue the seams.

Does it need to be glued down?
Not always. In a home gym or low-traffic room, loose lay with taped seams is enough. For commercial floors, high traffic, or anywhere equipment gets dragged across it, adhesive fixing is the better call.

Can I cut it to fit around walls and equipment?
Yes. A sharp utility knife and a straight edge will do it. Score along the line several times rather than trying to cut through in one pass.

Will it help with noise?
Yes, for footfall, machine vibration and general floor noise - which is why it's a common choice for upstairs studios, mezzanines and shared-wall spaces. For heavy dropped weights you need mass, so pair it with thicker rubber in the lifting area.

Does it smell?
It's a non-toxic, low-odour rubber with no chemical smell. Like any new rubber floor, give the room airflow for the first day or two after laying.

Does the fleck colour change the performance?
No. The fleck is part of the rubber composition - traction, thickness and durability are identical across every colour. It's purely how you want the floor to look.

Where should I use this - indoors or outdoors?
It's designed for indoor and undercover use. For exposed outdoor areas, our hybrid grass rubber tiles are the better fit.

Do you have other thicknesses or formats?
Yes - the same roll in 10mm, and 30mm EPDM tiles for impact zones. Browse the full commercial gym flooring range.
