This High-Performance Flooring Starts With Old Sneakers

Published on


How’s this for a game changer? Hero Rubber high-performance flooring by Mohawk Group, designed for applications like fitness centers where traction and impact resistance are key, is made from repurposed athletic shoes. The surface provides comfort, durability, and sustainability—along with visual swagger. It incorporates Nike Grind, which began as a grassroots initiative to recycle old sneaks and has since grown into a global solution for transforming manufacturing scrap and end-of-life footwear into durable and versatile materials. Hero Rubber contains no tires, so it has zero tire odor, and meets indoor air-quality standards like FloorScore and Red List Free. Three styles are on offer: uniform Original (made with 30 percent Nike Grind), terrazzo-esque Vitality, and large-scale Axis (the latter two incorporating 20 percent). All come in numerous thicknesses and formats, including tiles and rolls. mohawkgroup.com
