6 Indoor Sports Tarkett Sports products meet all the relevant standards for sports surfacing, ie. the European EN standard. The EN standard specifies requirements for multiuse sports surfaces in indoor facilities. This document has been applicable since 2006 and compulsor y since Februar y The EN standard is the basis of the EC marking for indoor sports floorings. This standard both guarantees the safety and performance of the surface, and also recognizes its quality. All our vinyl, wood surfaces as well as our combined solutions with linoleum or vinyl on the top, have undergone the necessar y laborator y inspection and have received international accreditation. What you need to know about sports surfaces The European standard - The main EN standard characteristics are: SAFETY REQUIREMENTS STANDARDS REQUIREMENTS Friction / Slipperiness EN Shock absorption EN % Vertical deformation EN mm TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS STANDARDS REQUIREMENTS Vertical ball behaviour EN % Resistance to a rolling load EN 1569 < 1500 N / 0.5mm Resistance to wear EN ISO < 1 G /80MG Resistance to fire EN Formaldehyde emission and content of pentachlorophenol Specular reflectance EN < 30 % or 45% Resistance to indentation EN 1516 < 0.5 mm Resistance to impact EN 1517 < 0.5 mm Point-elastic floor 3 sports surface classifications A surface that provides deflection only at or close to the point of impact for example PVC floorings with cushion backing. + Comfort and safety Type of users: For younger users of low to medium weight, looking for underfoot comfort and support. TARKETT SPORTS SOLUTION Omnisports TARKETT SPORTS SOLUTION Shock absorption As an athlete impacts a sports surface, the impact is translated into two resultant forces: one absorbed by the floor and the other returned to the athlete. Shock absorption rates the percentage of force reduction that a flooring provides compared to hard surfaces. This characteristic improves player comfort and security by decreasing the risk of injury. Different force reduction characteristics may be prescribed for different sports or users. Area-elastic floor A surface that deflects the force of point impact over a relatively large area for example parquet floors. + Performance & shock absorption for competition level Type of users: adult athletes, medium to heavier weight requiring reactive surfaces. S Match-it + Lumaflex Linosport + Lumaflex iq Sport Friction This measures a surface s ability to control the sliding of athletes on its surface. The surface friction of a sports flooring must be high enough to prevent premature and uncontrollable sliding of athletes on its surface, but also low enough to enable sliding off an extreme force. Vertical deformation and area deflection Vertical deformation measures the level of vertical displacement of the floor to support the foot in movements like running or jumping. Area deflection measures how much the surface of the floor is set into motion during impact, typically to provide movement for players performing in close proximity to each other. Ball rebound This characteristic measures the floor s playing performance. The surface must absorb the shock of impact but also give a consistent ball rebound that s the same as the rebound on a concrete slab. The practice of competition level basketball has evolved over two decades. The needs of athletes and improved equipment have gone hand in hand to ensure the quality of the sports surface and player performance. For the security of our athletes, we are particularly sensitive to criteria such as shock absorption, slide control and ball rebound. Vincent Collet, French Basketball Team Coach, ASVEL coach from 2008 to Combined-elastic floor Area elastic floor with a point elastic top layer, which provides both localized deflection and deflection over a wide area of the force of point impact typically cushion vinyl floors over a sub-construction. + Comfort, safety, performance, versatility Type of users: all athletes.

11 Omnisports GreenLay: 16 years of experience with Omnisports loose 16 >800, years sqm lay installation The first GreenLay Omnisports installation in 1995 was a test. But it s still in play over 16 years later. Since GreenLay was invented, more than 800,000 sqm all over the world have been installed using this innovative technique. Called GreenLay, Tarkett Sports PVC loose lay installation is a unique process invented in 1995 by Tarkett. The main objective was to simplify and reduce installation time compared to typical glued installations. What is GreenLay? GreenLay is based on two innovative principles: Online manufacturing process: for more than 20 years, Tarkett Sports has been at the cutting edge of technology and is still the only manufacturer to use this exclusive process for its thick PVC products. Tarkett Sports developed a unique coating system on a calendered underlayer doubled with a stabilizing fiberglass mesh. This exclusive method ensures a stronger undersurface, a heavier imprint and an excellent dimensional stability (0.1% according to the EN 434 standard). The stability of this thick PVC surface requires minimal gluing for installation. Only 2% of the total surface, typically at the edges requires glue. GREENLAY S MAIN BENEFITS for Omnisports Excel and Reference Quick and easy installation. This reduces the risk of musculoskeletal problems for installers. Less glue used so it reduces the glue setting time. Easy access to subfloor after installation without damaging the subfloor. Resistance to rising moisture (10%). Installation compatible with underfloor heating systems (hot water). A sustainable solution: 98% adhesive - free. it s easy to remove the sports surface at the end of life without damaging the subfloor. The preparation of screed to receive the new floor is easier and quicker. The PVC product can be recycled as the product is not contaminated with glue or screed. 372 Yssingeaux, France.

14 INDOOR SPORTS S Match-it Wood Solutions Our vision of wood p Reflex M Evolution, Multiflex M p Proflex M, Sportable p Solution for uneven subfloor p From traditional to highly innovative wood surfaces Quality wood sports surfaces are an integral component to the practice and development of sports and activities such as basketball, volleyball, handball, squash, dance and martial arts. Robert Charpentier sports hall, Issy-les-Moulineaux, France RANGE FEATURES PATENTED SYSTEMS PROVIDES HIGH LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE INTERNATIONAL SURFACE OF FOR BASKETBALL (Proflex M) SURFACE OF accredited for basketball, handball and volleyball EXTREMELY DURABLE Over the years, wood systems designed for sports applications have seen considerable improvements of quality and sophistication of the sub-structure. Tarkett Sports currently offers 2 types of wood sports surfaces adapted to flat and unflat subfloors. For flat subfloors, four different wood solutions are available in different species : For unflat subfloors, Tarkett Sports has developed an engineered adjustable sub-construction to answer that kind of requirements

15 Our vision of wood 3 layers (3.6 mm wear-layer) treatment Proteco Lacquer: The traditional appearance of a lacquer with highest wear resistance Wood surface needs good protection against wear, moisture and stains. Tarkett is up to the challenge with Proteco, the most hardwearing surface treatment concept in the market. Tarkett launched its Proteco Lacquer innovation in 1997, a unique lacquer on the market. The Proteco lacquer offers the highest degree of resistance against wear, tear and micro scratches. The Proteco concept gives you a strong wooden floor that retains its feel of real wood. Why Multilayer? Q Wear layer of hard wood W Middle layer of pine or spruce with transverse fibers. E Bottom layer of spruce veneer or plywood Stability: Thanks to fiber directions twisted 90 in each layer, movements are reduced by 2/3 vs solid wood and gaps and cracks are minimized. Sustainability: Example for a 700sqm basketball court: 5 m 3 of oak are necessary for a multilayer surface (3.6 mm wear layer) vs 30 m 3 of oak for a solid 22 mm surface. 5 excellent characteristics for Proteco Lacquer 1. Highest wear resistance 2. Extreme scratch resistance 3. Micro scratch resistance 4. Double UV-hardening 5. Maintenance products, especially adapted for Proteco The reasons why Proteco gives a better protection is due to the chemistry and how the 5 layers are put together. - The 5 layers are a combination of layers that are hard and others are flexible in order to give the right composition to protect against microscratches that also gives a high tabe value. - The important thing is not that we have 5 layers but how they interact together. Tarkett uses a ceramic composition, which is much stronger against microscratches than other types of top lacquer such as aluminium oxide. - Another part of the process is double UV-hardening process that will protect the floor even better.
