Your choice of pads makes Bio-Cushion family of floors a good choice for most facilities and activities.

The Overachiever
of High-Performance Floating Systems.

Fully DIN-certified—meets or exceeds all six DIN 18032-2 criteria for ball bounce, shock absorption, deflection, area of deflection, rolling load and surface friction.
Specially designed deflection plate offers peak performance, dimensional stability and uniformity.
Patented resilient EPDM Bio-Pad,™ offers extreme shock absorption and vibration control through changing environmental conditions. Other Robbins Bio-Pad options can be utilized to “tune” the floor for ballet, aerobics, and martial arts performance. Contact your local Robbins Authorized Dealer for details.

	Surface Options

	Continuous Strip^® XL Maple Bio-Star features a precision-kerfed version of XL Maple strip engineered for additional flexibility and resilience. Compared to random length, XL Maple goes down faster, is straighter, stronger and exceeds the minimum requirements of industry grade rules. The patented finger-joint and milling requires less sanding at the jobsite and can increase the life expectancy of the floor by 10 or more years. Continuous Strip^® XL450 Maple The traditional look of strip maple captured in a new low profile designed to maximize the use of raw materials. Robbins’ XL450 offers the same wear life as standard commodity random length maple but uses less lumber to manufacture with less waste. Provides a highly desirable natural appearance as a result of Robbins’ careful selection and grading process. Default construction for Bio-Cushion LP. XLplus (Precision Lineal Uniform Spacing) Available as a specified option on all Continuous Strip Maple, this Robbins exclusive innovation provides the owner a monolithic maple surface and virtually eliminates the need for spacer-cracks or expansion rows in the floor. Patent-protected and visually confirmed, XLplus adds dimensional stability to the floor and eliminates the need to specify “edge-grain” maple strip.
