Flooring & athletic surfaces

MDI moisture-cure binders for tracks, playgrounds, and weight-room flooring.

The challenges in this industry

  • Outdoor UV stability on rubber-crumb tracks
  • ADA-compliant impact attenuation on playgrounds
  • Bonding recycled SBR and EPDM at varying particle sizes

How MCPU shows up

MCPU works directly with formulation teams in flooring & athletic surfaces to qualify polyurethane chemistry against the specific spec, line, and end-use environment. We don’t hand off a generic SKU — we run pilot trials, iterate, and ship to your target.

Case story

MCPU binders trace back to the original Tartan™ track surface — the first polyurethane athletic running surfaces came from MCPU chemistry in the 1960s. Today the same chemistry, evolved for outdoor durability, binds rubber crumb on thousands of school and municipal installations.
