Store tiles and adhesive in the installation room for ≥ 24 h at 18 – 27 °C and 40 – 70 % RH.
2. Assess the sub-floor
Requirement
Concrete
Wood / OSB
Dryness
≤ 5 % MC or ≤ 3 lbs/1 000 ft²/24 h (ASTM F1869)
No visible moisture, replace any flexing panels
Flatness
≤ 3 mm deviation over 2 m; grind high spots & fill low
Sand joints, patch depressions
Clean
Vacuum, degrease, remove paint or curing compounds
Vacuum, remove protruding fastene
3. Layout planning
Snap perpendicular chalk lines through the room centre. Dry-lay two rows in a “T” to check squareness and seam pattern before committing to adhesive.

Situation
Recommended Method
Key Points
Home gym < 20 m², occasional loads
Loose-lay + perimeter double-sided tape
Tape every 60 cm along walls; tiles stay put under own weight
Commercial gym, classrooms 20–150 m²
Perimeter-glue + field tape
100 mm border of adhesive; cold-weld tape under each seam
Heavy free-weights, racks, fork-lift zones
Full-spread 1-part polyurethane adhesive
Use 3 mm V-notch trowel; work in 1 m swaths inside open time
Puzzle / interlocking tiles
Dry-lock (no glue) anywhere
Start in a corner; tap joints with rubber mallet; check for drift every 3–4 rows
Outdoor playground tiles
Two-part PU adhesive on concrete "puck" spots
5x thumb-size spots per tile; aids drainage & later removal
Step-by-Step Installation
A. Square-edge tiles (glue or tape)
Step
Action
Tips
1
Spread adhesive/tape only the first row
Keeps you inside adhesive open time
2
Place tiles – butt tight, seams staggered like brickwork
Alternate tile orientation if top has directional flecks
3
Roll
34–45 kg flooring roller, north-south then east-west
4
Clean squeeze-out
Use manufacturer's solvent while still wet
5
Continue one row at a time
Maintain chalk-line alignment
B. Puzzle / interlocking tiles
Set starter corner – square to the most visible wall.
Lock tiles – angle-insert tongue into groove and press flat.
Tap with a dead-blow mallet to seat tabs fully.
Trim edges – score, snap, and under-cut bottom dovetails so edge is flush.
Finish with reducers if transition height > 4 mm.
Cutting & Fitting
Score top twice with sharp utility blade against steel straight-edge.
Bend tile over the edge of a workbench; finish cut from the back.
Leave a 3 mm expansion gap at fixed walls for taped floors; butt-tight for full-glue floors.
Curing & Initial Use
Yes. Leading gemological labs like IGI (International Gemological Institute) and GIA (Gemological Institute of America) provide grading reports for lab-grown diamonds, confirming their quality and authenticity.

Routine Maintenance
Daily – vacuum or broom to remove grit.
Weekly – damp-mop with pH-neutral cleaner (pH 7-9).
Annually – inspect for edge lift; re-apply floor finish in high-traffic lanes.
