Action Floor Systems provides floor for charity event

Action Floor Systems, LLC, a manufacturer of premium hardwood maple sports floors, responded to a request from Anna Dymna's 'Against the Odds' foundation in Krakow, Poland to provide a sports floor for a charity sporting event held June 2010 in the city's town square.

The 6th annual Nationwide Get-Together Days 'Succeed Against the Odds' event brings Polish athletes with physical and visual disabilities together for competition.

Working with the Kopp Company, the company's rep in the region, who provided the sports floor at no-cost, Action Floor supplied a unique solution for the event’s organisers with a portable, hard maple NitroPanel floor — a quick-assembly, panel-based system. The high-quality, durable NitroPanel Portable Floor System delivers excellent performance characteristics, and features a beautiful surface deck of MFMA grade-marked Action LL (long length) hardwood white maple. Expansion Ridge Technology (ERT) accommodates expansion incrementally, board to board, offering strength and uniformity.

The NitroPanel subfloor system's stringers of laminated veneer lumber are stronger and straighter than common softwood lumber. The subfloor deck features strong, stable hardwood 4-ply, 15/32" (12mm) plywood. Concealed steel assembly brackets, laser-cut and precision-formed, along with a four-sided integral tongue-and-groove system ensure exact panel alignment. FIBA-certified, the NitroPanel system meets or exceeds requirements for amateur, international and professional applications.
