From Grey to Green: How to Give Your Balcony a Green Makeover

A balcony or rooftop terrace offers plenty of opportunities to create an inviting outdoor space. However, it often starts with a grey concrete or stone floor. Choosing the right flooring can transform the look and feel of the entire space. The Aslon® NatureGRASS tile combines the look of artificial grass with a rubber base, making it a practical solution for enhancing a balcony or rooftop terrace.

EARTHGRASS tiles renewed: modern appearance

Balconies, roof terraces and other outdoor spaces are increasingly being designed as an extension of the interior. Outdoor living is becoming more important: the garden, balcony and roof terrace are increasingly serving as fully-fledged living spaces connected to the home. Comfort and appearance play an important role in this. The renewed Aslon® EarthGRASS tiles fit perfectly with this modern trend of connecting indoor and outdoor living.

EPDM Rubber Tiles: A Safe and Durable Surface for Every Playground

EPDM rubber tiles are impact-absorbing, water-permeable and offer the ideal combination of safety, comfort and play value. EPDM stands for Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer. This is a synthetic rubber known for its high durability, elasticity and excellent resistance to various weather conditions.

Outdoor Fitness on a Natural Surface: Why Choose Grass tiles?

More and more municipalities, sports clubs, schools, architects and recreational parks are investing in outdoor fitness areas. Not only because exercising outdoors is healthy and accessible, but also because a public fitness area encourages people to be more physically active. The Aslon® Grass tiles offer a practical and sustainable solution for this.

Boutique gyms: training in style

More and more people are no longer just looking for a place to work out, but for a complete experience. An environment that inspires, motivates, and makes training truly enjoyable. Boutique gyms respond perfectly to this growing demand. To meet this trend, the right gym design is essential. Aslon® responds with Aslon® LineTRACK, combining aesthetics with high performance.

 

Green Play and Sports Surfaces with Aslon® Grass Tiles

Children love to play, run, and jump—and parents want them to do so safely, preferably in a green, natural environment. Aslon® Grass Tiles offer the perfect solution: they combine the softness and safety of rubber with the natural appearance of grass. Thanks to their open structure, grass can easily grow through the tiles, creating a firm, safe, and green surface. Ideal for use under swings, cableways, and other play and sports areas.

Safety on the roof starts with clear lines

Working at height involves risks. Solar panels, HVAC units and other rooftop installations require safe walkways to ensure maintenance can be carried out efficiently and without danger. Aslon® Demarcation Tiles are the ideal solution to combine clarity and safety.

Functional training zones: why the subfloor makes the difference

Functional training zones are becoming increasingly popular in gyms and fitness studios. Think of sprint tracks, sled push and pull exercises, plyometric drills, and circuit training. Athletes choose these zones for variety, intensity, and a challenging workout. However, a heavily used training surface can wear out quickly or cause uneven floors. Without the right subfloor, vibrations, wear, and even safety risks can occur.

When setting up a fitness space, the floor plays a bigger role than you might think.

A good fitness floor not only determines comfort during training but also affects the noise level, safety, and hygiene in the room. Aslon Rubber offers a range of fitness floors, each designed to meet different needs.

Climb safely with the Aslon® Ladder Mat

Work safely at height, even in wet and slippery conditions! During rainy seasons, wet surfaces often lead to slippery floors and an increased risk of the ladder sliding away. This makes working at height even more challenging.

CleanFIT Mats in Practice: Trainer André’s Choice

In modern sports interiors, everything revolves around a sleek appearance, functionality, and ease of use. Yet many gyms and personal training studios face a familiar challenge: sports floors that are difficult to keep clean. Intensive use, sweat, moisture, and dust cause fitness mats to become dirty quickly. This not only affects how easy they are to maintain, but also impacts the overall look and feel of the space.

The canted section: The ideal solution for every floor transition

Height differences between floors can lead to tripping hazards and discomfort. Think, for example, of a walker getting caught on a threshold, or a hand truck that needs to be lifted over a small edge every time. Not ideal – and unnecessary. The canted section offers a safe and sustainable solution for both indoor and outdoor use.

A Safe Playground Starts with the Right Surfac

When designing a playground, a safe and impact-absorbing surface is essential, one that cushions falls and reduces the risk of injury. Aslon® EPDM recycled tiles are an ideal solution. They offer excellent shock absorption combined with a sustainable character: made from recycled materials and fully compliant with the strictest European safety standards.

Easy-to-clean sports floor: CleanFIT mats

A sports floor that’s easy to clean, thanks to the CleanFIT mats.

Sweat, chalk, dust or spilled sports drinks? With CleanFIT mats, your sports floor is spotless again in no time. The closed top layer prevents dirt from sticking. Often, a quick mop is all it takes to effortlessly remove energy drinks, protein shakes or other liquids.

Working Out at the Office: with Design Grass Sprinttrack and CleanFIT Mats

An increasing number of companies are investing in fitness facilities for their employees. This trend is also visible at DAEL Group in Maasdijk. They actively promote vitality and physical activity, believing in the value of having fit and energetic team members.

Cleaning instructions

A rubber floor is often used in gyms, playgrounds, (roof) terraces, and garages. Cleaning a rubber floor is relatively simple, as long as you follow a few basic guidelines. Below, we share practical tips for keeping your rubber floor looking good and clean.

 

Connectors

Rubber tiles are supplied with a pin-and-hole connection system, allowing the tiles to be effortlessly linked together. Each rubber tile features four holes on two sides. These four holes serve as anchoring points for the plastic connecting pins. Using these pins is essential when installing a rubber floor.

Installation rubber tiles

By installing the rubber tiles carefully and following the steps below, a stable and safe surface is created. Proper installation begins with thorough preparation of the subfloor, followed by the precise placement of the rubber tiles.
