PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING

Maximum Protection for Green Areas and Safe Event Spaces for Maximum Visitor Comfort

Pedestrian event flooring is essential for open-air events in green spaces. This type of flooring creates load-bearing, pedestrian-friendly event grounds while providing maximum protection for the turf. We offer various systems for natural and artificial turf, as well as for level and uneven terrain, taking into consideration the subsoil condition, which is crucial in determining the appropriate turf protection system.

Turf Protection Panels or Rolls

Our range includes Terraplas and Terraflor, which are ideal for remaining in place for up to a week under ideal conditions. ArmorDeck 1 is especially suitable for level sports turf, while Supa-Trac and eps Pro are suitable for sandy grounds. In addition to turf protection panels, we also offer rolled products such as Portafloor and Rollaway. Our Logis Event Grip comes in a variety of colors, providing unique design possibilities for special events.

Pedestrian Event Flooring: Frequently asked questions

Looking for a solution to protect the ground at your event? Pedestrian event flooring might be the perfect option. In this article, we will explore the main features of this type of flooring, its sustainability, handling, safety, and transport efficiency. Additionally, we will provide insights into where and how pedestrian event flooring can be used and what it can withstand.

PRODUCT FEATURES: MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING

We provide pedestrian event flooring solutions that are easy to install manually and form smooth, pedestrian-friendly panels. Non-slip surface structures ensure secure flooring, while light- and air-permeable ground covers allow sufficient light, air, and water to reach turf areas. However, it’s essential to consider the recommended laying time, which varies from system to system and depends on the application area. This is particularly relevant for events lasting several days on sensitive green surfaces. Some turf protection systems are also ideal for indoor use, such as Terraplas on artificial turf in indoor soccer arenas or Supa-Trac in indoor riding arenas.

Weather-Resistant Structure and Flexibility

Our products are weather-resistant and flexible, making them an essential feature of turf protection. Terraplas and Terraflor can protect lawns for up to a week under optimal conditions. However, Terraplas is only suitable for level surfaces, while Terraflor can handle gentle hills due to its flexible connections.

Set the Scene for the Event Spaces

Is the event on a flat soccer pitch, a hilly golf field, or a slippery ice rink? When selecting a suitable turf protection system, it’s essential to consider the nature of the ground to be covered. We offer solutions for different loads and surfaces, always focusing on safety and comfort for pedestrians. Some of our cover systems, such as Supa-Trac and eps Pro, can even be driven over by light vehicles. Many of our ground mats or rolled-up strips are available in various colors. Logis Event Grip offers a vast range of colors in this context, making it easy to decorate event areas with company logos, slogans, or another lettering.

 

HOW SUSTAINABLE IS PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING?

Pedestrian event flooring is crucial for creating a healthy and safe environment. Natural green areas, easily damaged by events, require adequate protection to maintain biodiversity. Ground cover systems prevent damage to the ground, soil compaction, soiling, and damage to sensitive surfaces. They can also help avoid damaging crops under certain conditions, eliminating the need for complex renaturation that costs time and money.

Recycling, Transport Efficiency, and Durability

At the same time, it’s important to choose environmentally friendly products. Our plastic panels are primarily made from recycled, reusable materials. Our lawn protection systems, including eps Pro, Supa-Trac, and Terraplas, are particularly sustainable due to their durability and transport efficiency. We consider factors such as recycling, transport efficiency, and durability to reduce our CO₂ footprint as much as possible.

SUSTAINABILITY AT A GLANCE

  • Protects natural green spaces and, thus, biodiversity
  • Avoids field damage
  • Prevents ground compaction
  • Prevents pollution and damage to sensitive surfaces
  • Minimizes harvest failures
  • Saves expensive renaturation

BEST PRACTICE

Pedestrian Event Flooring is used in a variety of ways, whether for smaller structures or as a complete spectator area – for example, in the Olympiastadion Berlin during the filming of the Bundesliga trailer or at the P!nk concert

WHAT CAN PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING WITHSTAND?

Different ground covers are available for light to heavier loads. Primarily, they can create surfaces suitable for pedestrians. For example, these are ideal in the spectator area in front of the stage, for walkways on the campsite, or as a tent floor. However, some of the solutions are also suitable for larger loads. Moreover, these provide short-term parking facilities or serve as substructures for smaller-stage constructions.

From Pedestrian-Only to Drivable

Supa-Trac or eps Pro offers a wide range of applications. These turf protection systems can withstand heavy trolleys or cases and light vehicles such as Golf Carts or Gator Utility Vehicles. Similarly, they can handle the medium-heavy loads caused by FOHs or delay towers. You can combine almost any turf protection system with heavy-duty ground protection systems to cover all possible requirements.

HANDLING: BEST WAYS TO USE PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING

Stable and even event floors are created by installing individual panels, pre-assembled sheets, or roll-shaped delivered sheets. We recommend placing soft underlays under the cover to further optimize the preservation of green areas—for example, PE film or non-woven geotextile.

Design Event Spaces in No Time At All

The manual installation of the ground covers is comfortable and low-noise. Moreover, their intelligent connection systems make many solutions quick and easy to assemble and remove. For example, with the help of simple click systems, such as Supa-Trac and eps Pro, you can create solid event surfaces in no time, also on uneven surfaces such as sandy ground. Other solutions, such as ArmorDeck 1, Terraflor, or Terraplas, have unique locking systems. These systems allow the panels to be firmly connected with the help of integrated locks and related locking keys.

Roll Out and Create Large Event Floors

Rolled products such as Portafloor also enable a very simple installation. You can easily roll out the material. Therefore, you can create large-area event grounds in no time at all. We have additional components, such as ramps. These ramps ensure smooth transitions or balance expansion gaps. Moreover, we are happy to take care of transport, installation, and other required services.

HOW PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING KEEPS YOU AND YOUR MATERIALS SAFE

Protecting people and materials is always the focus of our planning and implementation. With our Pedestrian Event Flooring products, we aim to preserve green areas. Moreover, we also aim to create safe conditions for a successful event. Turf protection guarantees surfaces and paths that are resilient and safe to walk on. The non-slip surfaces ensure the best possible support. Similarly, systems with particularly flat ramps enable barrier-free and wheelchair-accessible access.

Protection From Slipping or Sinking

Safety and comfort for event guests and employees always have priority. Therefore, using suitable turf protection systems on unpaved grounds is especially recommended. During continuous rain, such grounds easily become soft and muddy. A pedestrian-friendly ground cover protects against slipping or sinking. Moreover, it can be ideal on stony grounds to prevent visitors from stumbling and injuring themselves.

TRANSPORT EFFICIENCY: LOADING AND PACKAGING FOR PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING

Lightweight, manual solutions like our pedestrian event flooring require minimal installation effort. However, the low weight also has an impact on transport. Portafloor, Logis Event Grip, and ArmorDeck 1 are especially transport-efficient.

Less space – less cost

Logis Event Grip requires minimal space for transportation and storage. The result: lower costs. The same applies to ArmorDeck 1. This turf protection can be stored in a particularly flat stack, making it highly space-saving and economical to transport and store.

WHERE AND HOW TO USE PEDESTRIAN EVENT FLOORING

Generally, we take care of temporary events such as concerts, festivals, or trade fairs on soccer fields, horse racing tracks, or other grassy areas. In such cases, pedestrian event flooring provides optimum protection for sensitive green areas. Lawn protection is used at major events as well as at smaller events.

Public Areas, Walkways, Parking Lots, and More

Typically, lawn-friendly flooring is used in the audience area to create a safe and tripping hazard-free surface for visitors. It is also used at event sites to create pedestrian-friendly walkways. Furthermore, some systems can be ideal as an event surface under a tent roof, providing temporary parking spaces, or even as a substructure for smaller stages.

From Meadows to Sandy Soils to Ice Rinks

The places of use are versatile. Some cover systems can also be ideal on uneven meadows, sandy soils, gravel or crushed stone subsoils, tartan tracks or even ice rinks. We also have suitable pedestrian event flooring for permanent use, such as in bike and amusement parks.
