DESIGNER RESOURCES

Design is what drives us at Life Floor. Throughout all of our unique projects, one thing remains the same: enhancing the aquatic experience for all people is at the heart of our purpose.

Why Does Surfacing Matter? 

Everyone interacts with the floor. Surfacing is often the largest feature at an aquatic amenity and has incredible design potential. Historically, the aquatics industry has been left with few surfacing options which are often hard, abrasive, hot, and unsightly. Surfacing dramatically influences experiences in aquatic spaces, which is why we’ve engineered products that encourage play, empower creative problem-solving, and enable fun for all ages and abilities.

Designers can elevate guest engagement by choosing a surface specifically designed for aquatics with Life Floor’s proven safety features and unlimited design capabilities.

The design possibilities are endless with Life Floor. Let’s reimagine themed spaces together.

WHERE CAN LIFE FLOOR BE INSTALLED?

Life Floor has been installed at over 2,500 destinations worldwide. Our tiles are engineered to perform in aquatic environments and can be installed in the following applications: 

DESIGN OPTIONS

Life Floor is manufactured in 32 colors, 4 standard shapes, and can be fully customized to create logos, iconic characters, and thematic Inlays.  

Finishing Details

Our finishing details are made from the same high-performing material as our Life Floor tiles. 

Finishing products include depth markers, no-diving symbols, safety messaging, stairs, wraps, pool coping, edge pads, water slide Landing Pads, and custom signage options.

Details can be customized to local code requirements and are fully integrated with the surrounding Life Floor surface to provide continuous traction, cushioning, and design. You can find detail sheets for our finishes under the resources section near the bottom of this page.

DESIGN INSPIRATION

Designers have the opportunity to extend theming across the surface to curate tailored and immersive spaces with Life Floor’s versatile products. Our neutral tones inspire relaxation while our bright pops of color stimulate energy and encourage playfulness at attractions.

CLEANING + MAINTENANCE
