Description
This 50 mm fine grain SBR tile is the CrossFit and functional training thickness, sitting between 40 mm for standard strength work and 60 mm for dedicated weightlifting. A box is not a weightlifting room. Within a single session the floor takes barbell drops, burpees, box jumps and a sled pass, and those four demands are not the same.
Fifty millimetres answers all of them. It handles bar drops of 60 to 150 kg in overhead, clean and snatch work, and the extra 10 mm over a 40 mm tile is felt directly on the knees, elbows and hips during repeated floor movements such as burpees, sprawls, Turkish get-ups and planks. Forty millimetres does the job on the drops alone; what 50 mm adds is margin on gymnastic volume.
The fine grain finish is not cosmetic. It is what stops chalk embedding in the surface, and it gives the right compromise for sled work between grip for the athlete’s feet and glide for the sled runners. The tile is certified to EN 1177 with a critical fall height of 1.8 m and classified Efl, which restricts it to non ERP use in France.

Choosing the right thickness for a box
The three scenarios where 50 mm is the correct specification are consistent. First, a CrossFit or functional training box where a single hour mixes overhead drops, repeated floor movements, jumps and sled passes. Second, facilities with high gymnastic volume, where joint fatigue over a session is the limiting factor rather than peak impact. Third, mixed use rooms where a dedicated weightlifting platform is not being built and the floor has to do everything.
Sixty millimetres oversizes for loads most boxes never lift, and it raises the floor level enough to complicate doorways and thresholds. Fifty millimetres avoids both problems. We price zone by zone rather than by room, and transport is optimised for large quantities. Quotations are issued in 24 to 72 hours and more than 2,500 clients have been equipped.
