Designed for use with permeable or non-permeable systems, these specially formulated products, used in combination with rubber granules, produce colorful, resilient surfaces for use on outdoor or indoor athletic tracks.  Some of the running track systems that can be installed using APT materials are:

Full pour, in-situ multi-layer systems that include an impermeable, self-leveling polyurethane flood coat and embedded EPDM rubber granules.

Two-layer sandwich system polyurethane track systems. A base layer is created with recycled rubber granules bound in polyurethane and a surface layer of colored EPDM granules is then cast into a polyurethane flood coat.

Spray coat polyurethane track surfaces, with a base layer of a black mat of SBR rubber granules bound in polyurethane, a surface layer of polyurethane and colored EPDM granule structural spray.
