Surfaces for Sports Areas - Indoor Surfaces for Multi-Sports Use - Specification
Also Known As:
The specifications for multi-sport surfaces used in indoor sport halls and gymnasiums are outlined in the DIN EN 14904 standard. These playing surfaces are made to support a variety of sports, including handball, small-sided football, basketball, volleyball, and basketball. The standard includes the upper or playing surface and supporting layers in its evaluation of compliance for both prefabricated and in-situ manufactured surfaces.
It's crucial to remember that indoor surfaces made of synthetic turf or textiles are not covered by this standard. In order to provide an appropriate environment for the intended sports activities, this standard aims to ensure that multi-sports surfaces meet the defined criteria for functionality, performance, and safety. This standard's adherence ensures that the indoor surfaces meet the requirements for multisport use in terms of quality.
