Sportwood Sports Surfaces - Abacus Sports PA Dealership

Sportwood by Robbins.

Sportwood is a highly durable, stable surface made from edge-grained cut Northern Hard Maple. It’s well suited for a variety of activities, from competitive team sports to dance and yoga to stage productions—anywhere performance must be delivered with an eye toward economy.

Since 1982, and with millions of square feet installed, Sportwood is a favorite of churches, YMCAs, schools and recreation centers across the country.

The unique square-edge design of Sportwood provides the same life expectancy of standard tongue and groove maple strip, and with proper maintenance, can last the life of the facility.

Robbins Sportwood systems can be used in combination with Robbins Pulastic for facilities requiring the performance and practicality of maple and synthetic surfaces used together—a true multipurpose and multifunction solution.

Comfort, Safety and Performance in a Versatile System.

edge-grain cut, Northern Hard Maple—the preferred surface for basketball, volleyball and other indoor sport activities.
