One of the biggest challenges that many indoor basketball floors face is dealing with shifting humidity and temperature levels, which can cause generic hardwood floors to warp, cup, or develop dangerous gaps between planks.

NB basketball wood flooring is specifically engineered to perform reliably in every type of climate, from the dry cold of northern winter arenas to the humid heat of southern summer gyms. Every plank of NB basketball wood flooring goes through a multi-stage acclimation process at the factory, where it is exposed to a wide range of different humidity levels to stabilize the wood’s internal moisture content before it even leaves the facility. The patented NB installation system uses a flexible fastener design that gives every individual plank room to expand and contract naturally as the climate in the arena changes, without putting stress on the surrounding boards. NB’s engineers have tested their flooring systems in climate-controlled labs that simulate every possible extreme indoor environment, and the floors never develop warping, cupping, or dangerous uneven spots. No matter where your arena is located, you can count on NB basketball wood flooring to stay perfectly flat, stable, and safe all year round.
