ChampCourts Synthetic Acrylic Sports Flooring

Synthetic acrylic sports flooring is a multi-coat acrylic surface applied on site over a prepared concrete or asphalt base. Its main advantage is that it bonds as one seamless, UV-stable layer, so the court plays true, holds up to Indian sun and monsoon, and can be recoated in place instead of replaced.

ChampCourts builds it in 2 to 12 layers of primer, resurfacer, cushion and colour, to FIBA, BWF and ITF court dimensions for basketball, tennis, badminton, pickleball and volleyball courts.

It works indoor and outdoor, across new construction and resurfacing jobs, pan-India, from ₹25 per sq ft ex-GST.

From a floodlit twin pickleball arena in Sivakasi to a resurfaced school basketball court in Dwarka, New Delhi, ChampCourts crews have laid this surface for schools, homes, academies and public sports complexes across India — and every court is checked coat by coat before handover.

Where acrylic sports flooring is used, indoors and outdoors

Acrylic flooring converts a plain concrete or asphalt base into a line-marked, ball-true playing surface for basketball courts, tennis courts, badminton and pickleball courts, both indoors and outdoors.

Whether you're planning new tennis court construction or resurfacing an existing court, it's a common choice for schools, colleges, housing societies, sports academies, clubs, resorts, corporates and government sports complexes across India. It's one of the most common outdoor sports flooring choices in India, and a familiar sight at schools, clubs and resorts nationwide.

Advantages of synthetic acrylic sports flooring

Acrylic gives a true, consistent ball bounce and a seamless, hard-bonded finish — no tile joints or seams to catch a foot or a bounce. Colours are UV-stable, multiple sports can share one surface through line marking in different colours, and the coating can be repaired or recoated in place rather than replaced.

Acrylic coatings resist fading and hold their colour well through Indian summers and monsoons — a high-performance surface built for Indian heat, UV and monsoon cycles.

Acrylic is also a common hard-court surface at professional outdoor tournaments worldwide.

Playing pace can be tuned by adjusting the texture of the resurfacer and colour coats — a slower or faster feel, without changing the base material. Among synthetic sports surfaces, it is one of the most popular choices for outdoor hard courts in India.

Limitations — when acrylic flooring isn't the right choice

Acrylic is the wrong choice in two situations: indoor tournament badminton, and any site where the base is failing and will not be repaired first. Everywhere else the trade-offs below are manageable — but worth knowing before you order.

• Hard feel below 6 layers. Builds under 6 layers have no cushion coats, so the surface feels harder underfoot than a cushioned build.
• Needs a sound, dry base. Acrylic bonds to the base it's applied on — a base that's cracked, uneven or still curing will show through the coating and can shorten its life.
• Base cracks can telegraph through the coating. Acrylic seals and treats existing cracks; it doesn't stop a structural crack in the base from reappearing over time.
• Recoating is needed over time. Like any painted hard-court surface, colour and texture wear down with use and weather, and the court will need recoating eventually — see Maintenance below.
• Not the standard for indoor tournament badminton. The Badminton World Federation's approved indoor flooring list covers sprung wooden floors, PVC and vinyl court mats and polyurethane (PU) sports floors — acrylic isn't on it. Acrylic badminton courts suit outdoor and recreational play, not indoor competition-grade requirements.
• Can be slippery when wet. Like any hard court surface, a wet acrylic court has reduced grip — avoid play during or immediately after rain until the surface has dried.

Base, layer count and use case all need to be right for your site — talk to us about your specific requirement before you order.

The layer system: 2 to 12 layers

The layer count is the one choice that changes both what you pay and how the court feels underfoot. More layers add thickness, colour depth and — from 6 layers up — cushioning, not a different material. An 8-layer system is about 1.4–2 mm thick in total, and a 12-layer system about 3–3.5 mm.

Every build starts with a bonding coat, adds resurfacer and colour coats as the layer count goes up, and adds cushion coats from 6 layers upward. 2 to 12 are our standard builds; custom builds to any requirement are available on request.

Layer table: minimum order area and coat count

Read the table left to right: the layer count, the minimum order area it can be supplied for, and how many primer, resurfacer, cushion and colour coats that build contains.

Only acrylic builds of 8 layers and above carry a 2-year warranty. Builds below 8 layers are supplied without warranty.

Which build suits your court?

The right layer count depends on how the court will be used and how many hours of play it will see each day.

• Home, lawn or rooftop court for relaxed play: a lighter 4- or 5-layer build keeps the cost down — the lawn pickleball court we built in Dehradun is a 5-layer build.
• School, society or corporate court in daily use: 5 to 7 layers, with cushion coats from 6 layers for more comfort underfoot.
• Academies, clubs and long playing hours: 8 layers and above, with three or more cushion coats and a 2-year warranty on the acrylic build.

Cushion layers explained

Cushion coats are rubber-granule acrylic layers added beneath the colour coat, starting at 6 layers and adding one more coat with each layer after that — up to 3 cushion coats at 8 layers and 7 cushion coats at 12 layers. They absorb impact and reduce joint and muscle fatigue during play.

Builds below 6 layers have no cushion coats and feel harder underfoot, which is why choosing between (for example) a 5-layer and an 8-layer system usually comes down to budget versus underfoot feel and expected hours of play.

Your base: concrete, RCC and asphalt — and why moisture matters

The base decides how long an acrylic court lasts. The system bonds directly to it, so the finished surface can only be as level, as sound and as dry as whatever sits underneath. ChampCourts works with these base types:

• Prepared concrete base — our standard price basis; a sound, level, fully cured slab gives the system the best bond and the truest playing surface.
• Asphalt — also available, at +₹10 per sq ft over the standard concrete-base rate.
• New PCC, new RCC or new asphalt base built by us — quoted separately from the flooring system.
• Base correction or repair — cracked, uneven or poorly cured base is corrected before any coating goes down; quoted after inspection.

New concrete needs to cure for 28 days, and moisture must test under 5% before coating begins.

Concrete slabs release moisture continuously as they cure. If that moisture is trapped under an acrylic coating, it builds pressure under the film and causes blistering or peeling — which is why the base is moisture-tested before coating begins.

Base quality — cure time, moisture and levelness — is the single biggest factor in the coating's long-term durability.

Quality checks and certifications

Three things back the quality claim: an ITF pace classification on the material, courts built to each sport's governing-body dimensions, and a fixed set of site checks run on every job from base inspection to final handover.

• ChampCourts' acrylic material is ITF-classified — the International Tennis Federation's Court Pace Classification rates a surface product's playing pace category; it doesn't itself imply ITF approval or endorsement of the installed court.
• Courts are built to FIBA, BWF and ITF court dimensions, as applicable to the sport.
• ChampCourts is a registered MSME (Udyam), a GeM seller, and a DPIIT-recognised startup.
• Every job goes through the same site checks: base inspection for cracks and level, a moisture check before coating, crack treatment before any coat goes down, application only in suitable weather (no rain expected, humid or hot conditions avoided), inspection of each coat as it's applied, a flood test for standing water once the system is complete, and a final walkthrough and handover.

Our installation process, step by step

Installation runs in eight stages, and the first three are about the base rather than the coating — which is where a court's working life is actually decided. Here is the sequence from enquiry to handover.

1. Free quotation, then base inspection — share your court size, sport and base details for a free quotation within 2 hours; before work starts, the base is inspected for level, cracks and cure condition, or a new base is planned.
2. Base build or correction — build a new PCC, RCC or asphalt base, or repair and correct the existing one, before any coating goes down.
3. Moisture check — confirm the base tests dry, under 5% moisture, before coating begins.
4. Primer coat — bonds the acrylic system to the base.
5. Resurfacer coats — build a smooth, consistent layer across the court.
6. Cushion coats (6 layers and above) — add shock absorption beneath the colour coat.
7. Colour coats and line marking — the UV-stable finish goes down last, followed by court lines for basketball, tennis, badminton, pickleball or multi-sport markings.
8. Ready for play — the court is ready for play 48 hours after the final coat, given dry weather.
9. Handover — a final walkthrough with your care guide.

Who applies your court

Every ChampCourts acrylic floor is applied by trained applicator crews working under ChampCourts supervision and quality checks — from the first coat to the final walkthrough.

Our crews have coated courts in very different settings across India, so they know what a court needs before the first coat goes down: when a base is still too damp to coat, when the weather is wrong for application, and how to keep lines crisp where several sports share one surface. The same care goes into a 5-layer lawn court as into an 8-layer academy court.

Acrylic vs PP tiles vs PU vs wooden vs vinyl flooring

The short version: acrylic wins outdoors, PP interlocking tiles win when the base is poor or the court has to move, and sprung wooden or vinyl systems win indoors for tournament badminton.

Below, the acrylic surface is compared with modular PP interlocking tiles, poured PU, sprung wooden floors, vinyl/PVC mats and other overlays such as rubber flooring, so you can judge it against each alternative before you decide.

Comparison table: acrylic vs PP tiles, PU, wooden and vinyl flooring

For an outdoor court on a sound base, acrylic is the strongest all-round choice of the five — here is how each system differs.

Compare acrylic against a modular, base-tolerant surface on the PP tile courts page if that suits your site better.

Colours, line marking and logos

Courts come in a range of standard colours, with custom colour combinations available for multi-sport line marking — different colours for different sport lines on the same shared surface.

Club or school logos can be painted on request.

Maintenance and repainting

An acrylic court needs water and nothing else — no chemicals, no waxing, no annual service contract — plus a recoat when the surface itself tells you it is due.

Clean an acrylic court with water only — sweep and rinse with plain water; contact ChampCourts if you have a stain that plain water won't shift.

Avoid dragging sharp furniture, spiked footwear or heavy equipment across the surface, and clear standing water promptly after rain.

Recoat when you notice fading, a smoother, less grippy surface texture, or fine surface cracking, rather than on a fixed calendar — climate and how much the court is used both affect how long a coat lasts. Routine care and periodic recoating keep the surface long-lasting and performing well, without redoing the whole system from the base up.

Installation and maintenance go hand in hand: every ChampCourts court is handed over with a care guide, so the right upkeep starts from day one.

What affects the cost of acrylic flooring

Price starts at ₹25 per sq ft, ex-GST, and is driven mainly by one variable: the layer count.

That rate covers supply and application on a prepared concrete base, and heavier layer systems cost more per sq ft than lighter ones. Beyond the layer count, four things change your quote:

• Base condition and type — an existing base in good condition costs less to prepare than one needing correction or repair, or a new PCC, RCC or asphalt base built from scratch; asphalt carries a +₹10 per sq ft surcharge over concrete.
• Area versus the minimum order — each layer count has its own minimum order area (see the layer table above); areas below the minimum are priced at the minimum.
• Colours and line marking — custom colour combinations and multi-sport line layouts.
• Site access and location — pan-India delivery, but site access and distance can affect logistics.
