Let us provide premium coatings for
attraction & exhibit flooring.
Attractions and Exhibits:
Theme park attractions and exhibits are the core elements that create memorable, immersive experiences for guests. They combine entertainment, storytelling, and interactivity to transport visitors into fantasy worlds, thrill them, educate them, or simply give them joy.
Key Functions:
Theming and Immersion
Visuals, sound, architecture, and smell all contribute to a believable world. Often, they are tied to movie franchises, cultural narratives, or fantasy environments.
Storytelling
Whether it is a high-speed coaster or a museum-style exhibit, there is often a narrative arc or backstory.
Guest Engagement
Attractions aim for emotional impact (thrill, joy, wonder) through its rides and shows, and interactivity games foster guest participation. Exhibits create excitement and joy while promoting discovery and reflection.
Capacity and Flow
Designed to handle thousands of guests per day, attractions and exhibits often use queues, pre-shows, and timed entry to manage flow.
Revenue Generation
Attractions and exhibits directly or indirectly generate additional income through ticketed upcharge experiences, merchandise sales, and photo sales. Increased dwell time boosts food and retail spending nearby.
Competitive Differentiation
Attraction and exhibits can set the park apart from competitors with unique ride systems, record-breaking features, or immersive theming to elevate reputation.
Education and Awareness
Attractions and exhibits can blend learning with entertainment.
Flooring Requirements:
Acoustics and Noise Control
Attraction & exhibit flooring should help reduce noise from foot traffic and rolling equipment. Exhibits and shows with interfering noise reduce the chances of a positive guest experience and a show’s performance clarity.
Cleanability and Hygiene
Food and drink spills are common in theme parks; seamless and chemical resistant floors minimize maintenance and sanitation risks.
Thermal Comfort
Standing for long periods on cold or overly hot flooring can be unpleasant for guests and staff. Comfortable underfoot temperatures offer positive guest experiences, especially in indoor queues or interactive exhibits.
Aesthetics and Theming Compatibility
Floors should align with the visual theme of the attraction. They are a critical part of immersive storytelling. The right color, texture, and material complete the experience.
Accessibility and ADA Compliance
Attraction & exhibit flooring must accommodate wheelchairs, strollers, and mobility aids, as well as meet tactile warning surface requirements, ensuring inclusivity and legal compliance for all guests.
Fire & Heat Resistance
Safety standards require flame-retardant finishes in case of emergencies. Fire-rated flooring materials, like many resinous flooring systems, are essential, especially in indoor and high-density areas.
Compatibility with Special Effects
Many exhibits rely on floors for embedded tech or interaction triggers. Any flooring choice must support integrated lighting, projection mapping, or special effects.
Maintenance Lifecycle and Repairability
Downtime in a theme park is costly and disruptive. Floors should be able to be repaired quickly and quietly without needing full closure.
