Proven Laykold system at the International School in Frankfurt

The International School Frankfurt Rhein-Main is a private international day school located in the Sindlingen district of Frankfurt. It offers English-language education from kindergarten to Year 12 and prepares pupils for internationally recognised qualifications. The spacious campus provides modern learning and sports facilities, including a swimming pool, sports hall and various outdoor sports areas.

One of these outdoor sports facilities is a tennis court with Polytan’s Laykold acrylic sports surface. The court was designed in a classic colour scheme with a blue playing area and green perimeter, blending harmoniously into the campus sports facilities.

Laykold Masters 5, a cushioned acrylic-based hard court system with an elastic intermediate layer, was installed, combining high playing comfort with a robust and durable surface. The combination of acrylic coating and elastic layer provides effective shock absorption, consistent ball bounce and high resistance to abrasion and UV exposure. The seamless system is slip-resistant, suitable for all weather conditions and can be installed on asphalt or concrete bases.

The Laykold brand is one of the world’s most established tennis hard court systems and was introduced as early as the 1920s. Today, the surface is used on courts around the globe and is also featured at major international tournaments. Laykold has been the official playing surface of the US Open for many years and is also used at other leading tournaments.
