Chemistry.
Laykold courts are more than just paint. Our scientists have continually innovated to keep up with the game so that when you install a Laykold court, there is chemistry at play.
Laykold chemistry means you can choose Grand Slam quality, pinpoint accurate pace precision, 15%+ force reduction for reduced player injury, the biggest choice of colors in the game that are optimized to last, green technology using recycled balls and renewable energy, and the latest temperature reduction technology making your courts 30% cooler.
