Why SoftStall — Materials, Testing & Quality

What we make it from, and what we can prove

Manufacturing approach, material characteristics, and a clear account of which performance figures are documented and which are still being confirmed.

This page exists partly to say what we do not yet publish. Several figures customers reasonably ask for — impact force reduction, warranty terms, precise dimensions — are pending confirmation against current documentation, and we would rather flag that than fill the gap.

Manufactured in-house

Products are manufactured in-house rather than sourced per order. The practical consequence is consistency: an additional stall ordered in year five matches the ones installed at the start, and a facility phasing work across seasons gets the same product in phase four as in phase one.

Material characteristics

The E-Tek top cover is a non-absorptive surface layer selected for moisture resistance and daily wear. The underpad provides the cushioning. SoftStep pavers are UV-stabilised rubber for exterior use. SoftWall combines a concussion panel with a sealed waterproof cover.

Non-absorptive top surface — full material spec TBD

Cushioned underpad — composition and thickness TBD

Full material specifications, thicknesses, and composition data require confirmation from current product documentation.

Testing and documented performance

Where test documentation exists, we will publish the method and the result together rather than a number on its own. That applies particularly to SoftWall impact performance, which is the figure most often requested and the one we are least willing to approximate.

SoftWall force reduction — TBD, pending test documentation

Test method and standard — TBD

Third-party verification — TBD

Traction and wet-slip performance — TBD

Impact test results, test standards, and any certification documents must be supplied and reviewed before any figure is published.

Quality at installation

For sealed systems the installation is part of the product. A perfect underpad with a poor perimeter seal is not a SoftStall floor, which is why sealed installations are carried out by trained crews rather than shipped as kits.
