Mental and physical peak performance at Leiden University

Herculan sports floors set the standard 
Leiden University is ready for the future with its new Sports and Examination Centre. This 9,000 m² building is completely energy-­neutral and uses high-quality Herculan sports floors.

Multifunctional and sustainable
The two spacious sports halls feature the mix-elastic Herculan Blue One floor. This floor not only delivers optimal sports performance for a wide range of sports but is also used as a comfortable exam hall.

In the three dance studios and the Body & Mind Hall, the choice was made for Herculan MF 9+2, with a soothing finish in pastel violet. The various storage rooms are fitted with Herculan Topsport in matching colours. With these floors, the University Sports Centre has 3,200 m² of sports floors that can be used in a variety of ways.

Sustainability according to the highest standards

The building complies with the European Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and is designed in accordance with the BREEAM Excellent label. To this end, the floors are equipped with underfloor heating, something that Herculan sports floors can handle very well. They also meet the high requirements set for the indoor climate due to their low emissions and minimal amount of volatile organic compounds.

The results of the efforts to build sustainably are certainly impressive. Not only can top physical performances be delivered here, but the wide range of uses seamlessly meets the highest quality requirements. By choosing Herculan Sports Floors, ­Leiden University has invested in proven comfort and a future-proof solution.
