Modular PP tiles
Interlocking tiles can support replaceability, modular installation and selected outdoor drainage pathways, but the exact tile construction and base still matter.
Decision Centre / Global
Modular sports tiles or roll flooring?
Both can work well, but they solve different installation and operating problems.

Direct answer
The short version.
Choose modular tiles when replaceable modules, open-joint drainage or modular installation matter. Choose roll flooring when a more continuous playing surface, specific indoor performance or event deployment is the stronger requirement.
Project decision
What matters before product selection.
Use these points to structure the first project conversation. Final suitability stays tied to the actual site, selected system and local project team.
Roll flooring
Continuous or sheet-style sports surfaces can suit indoor courts, portable tournament use or specialist performance needs depending on construction.
Base remains decisive
Neither format fixes a poor substrate. Flatness, movement, moisture, drainage and transitions need to be understood before product selection.
Comparison matrix
Tile vs roll
Use the matrix as a shortlist, then confirm the exact product.
| Factor | Modular PP tile | Roll flooring |
|---|---|---|
| Format | Interlocking modules | Continuous rolls / sheets |
| Replacement | Individual modules | Sections / rolls |
| Outdoor drainage | Often stronger pathway | Depends on system and base |
| Portability | Possible by system | Strong in selected event products |
| Visual seams | Module grid visible | Fewer seams |

Frequently asked
Answers without oversimplifying the project.
Is there one best sports-flooring format for every project?
No. Site conditions, scale, permanence, local works, operating expectations and documentation requirements change the right starting point.
Does Apollo calculate project pricing automatically online?
No. Apollo uses a manual project-brief process so the selected system, quantities, destination, freight and project interfaces are checked before pricing.
Who handles local engineering, approvals and installation?
Apollo is primarily a supply-only project-supply specialist. Local engineering, approvals, foundations, services, installation and other site work remain with the appointed local project team unless a written project scope states otherwise.
Next step
Turn the research into a real project brief.
Send the site, dimensions, intended use, quantities and known local requirements. Apollo will review the relevant product pathway and keep local engineering, approvals and site-work responsibilities explicit.
