The Biomass Macwood Elite System offers a revolutionary sports flooring solution that combines the classic look of traditional hardwood with advanced performance and durability. Visually, it is almost indistinguishable from premium hardwood sports flooring, delivering the same professional and timeless appearance. However, in daily use and maintenance, it outperforms traditional hardwood in several key ways.
One major advantage is that the court can remain in optimal condition without running HVAC frequently when the venue is not in use. This helps keep performance stable and can significantly reduce daily electricity costs, making it an energy-saving choice for facility managers.
With its long service life, strong durability, and excellent dimensional stability, the system is designed to resist many factors that often damage traditional hardwood courts, such as roof leaks, standing water, flooding, termite attack, rising damp, UV exposure, and extreme temperatures.
It helps facility managers keep the floor protected even during the rainy season, reducing concerns about potential damage.
In terms of sports performance, the Macwood Elite System is comparable to premium hardwood sports flooring. It has been tested to the FIBA standard and meets Level-1 requirements for wooden sports flooring, making it suitable for a wide range of sports.
With a FIBA-certified varnish finish, the surface provides strong slip resistance while minimizing friction burns. It also reduces the area elastic force by 65% to better protect athletes’ joints and back. A stable 92% ball rebound supports fast-paced, high-level basketball play.

In general, the Biomass Macwood Elite System is installed in a similar way to traditional solid hardwood sports flooring. For the best results, please watch our installation video and follow our detailed installation guide for step-by-step instructions.
We also offer plastic leveling adjusters in a range of thicknesses from 1 mm to 15 mm to ensure a perfectly level court surface. Placed under the rubber pads on the bottom sleepers, these adjusters help correct minor unevenness in the subfloor.
The surface is finished with a FIBA-certified oil-based or water-based varnish. This coating balances slip resistance and wear resistance to create a playing environment that is both exciting and safe. If you want to personalize your court, you can also add custom logos, graphics, and color schemes on the Macwood Elite surface.
