Most schools and academies cannot justify a dedicated floor for every sport they teach. A multipurpose PVC mat gives you one surface carrying several sets of markings in contrasting colours, so the same hall runs kabaddi in the morning and table tennis in the evening without a compromise either way.
We supply and install sport-specific mats and general multipurpose rolls for schools, universities, academies, clubs and event organisers — bonded permanently or supplied as portable systems with storage trolleys for tournaments.
Each sport has its own dimensions, impact profile and thickness requirement. These are the systems we install most.

Yes, and it is the most common way schools use these floors. Each sport gets its own colour, chosen so the lines separate clearly at playing distance. Practically, three to four sets of markings is the sensible limit — beyond that the floor gets visually busy and players start hesitating on the wrong line.
Bond it if the hall is dedicated to sport and the floor stays put. Choose portable loose-lay if the same hall hosts assemblies, exams or functions, or if you move the mat between venues for tournaments. Portable systems need storage space and trolleys, which we supply as part of the scope.
Impact drives thickness. Kabaddi needs the thickest, highest-cushion mat because players are going to ground constantly. Table tennis and sepak takraw work well on thinner, firmer mats where footing consistency matters more than cushioning. We specify per sport rather than laying one thickness across the hall.
Rolled, not folded, on the trolleys supplied — folding creases PVC permanently and the crease shows on every future lay. Store rolls upright in a dry room away from direct sun. Handled this way a portable mat moves between venues for years without visible wear.
Dry mop daily to lift grit, which is what actually abrades the surface, and wash weekly with a neutral pH cleaner. Avoid solvent cleaners and hard scrubbing on markings. Put barrier matting at hall entrances — keeping grit off the floor extends its life more than any cleaning routine.
Yes, and they matter if you intend to host sanctioned matches. Kabaddi, kho-kho, sepak takraw and table tennis each have their own court dimensions and surround clearances. We set out to the current federation specification for each sport you name, and flag at survey where your hall cannot fit a full-size court.
