Avoid Running Track Installation Risks

Check the base, material compatibility, weather window and site process before Running Track Installation begins.

Base Risk

Check the Foundation

Check strength, flatness, cleanliness, moisture, compatibility and drainage before primer or Base Layer installation.

Material Risk

Confirm Compatibility

Confirm EPDM granule size, PU Binder type, mixing ratio, batch quantity, storage and structure compatibility.

Weather Risk

Review Conditions

Review temperature, humidity, rainfall, surface moisture and the curing window before installation.

Process Risk

Control Each Step

Control priming, mixing, paving, compaction, spraying or trowelling, curing and line marking.

Testing & Technical Evidence

Review material-level reports and confirm the product, test method and project scope before specification.

Answers for Better Running Track Decisions

Concise guidance for comparing Running Track Structures, materials and installation conditions.

Which Running Track Structure should I evaluate?

Start with intended use, target performance, existing base, drainage, climate and installation capability. Final structure should be confirmed against the project specification and applicable standards.

What are Running Track surfaces made of?

A Running Track Surface can combine an EPDM Rubber Granules Top Layer with PU Binder and, depending on the structure, an SBR or ETPU Base Layer, primer, coatings and line paint.

What EPDM granule size is used for Running Tracks?

The examples shown use EPDM Rubber Granules from 0.5–2.0 mm, 1.0–3.5 mm or 2–4 mm depending on the Running Track Structure and layer function.

How thick is an EPDM Running Track Surface?

The reference structures shown range from 10 mm to 25 mm. Final thickness depends on the selected system, performance requirement, existing base and project specification.

What is the difference between a one-layer and a two-layer EPDM surface?

A one-layer system uses an EPDM Rubber Granules surface layer over a prepared and primed base. The two-layer example combines an SBR Base Layer with an EPDM Top Layer.

When should I evaluate a spraycoat structure?

Evaluate a Spraycoat Running Track when its Base Layer, spray layer, performance requirements and installation method fit the project specification.

How do I choose a PU Binder?

Compare Aromatic and Aliphatic PU Binder options against layer position, Color Matching requirements, UV exposure, budget and technical specification.

How can I estimate Running Track Materials?

Use the FieldsMaster Material Quantity Calculator for an initial EPDM, SBR and PU Binder estimate, then confirm allowances for waste, edges and site conditions.

What should be checked before Running Track Installation?

Check base strength, drainage, climate, material storage, mixing, installation sequence and curing protection before work begins.
