Our fully enclosed outdoor squash court structures and matched sport flooring systems are engineered to withstand extreme climates while meeting international competition benchmarks.

High Quality Squash Court With Cover and Anti-UV Roof System for All-Weather External Training Facility Projects

Ⅰ.The core engineering advantages of our all-weather squash court roof system

1. High-strength and long-span ceiling structure

The main frame is made of hot-dip galvanized steel and the tempered glass wall will not block the view of the ball or interfere with the progress of the game.

2. Wall and floor systems that comply with WSF standards

Wall system: The front and rear side walls are made of 12mm tempered laminated glass with an anti-glare honeycomb texture on the surface to ensure the consistency of ball rebound and the audience’s field of vision while reducing impact noise. It is suitable for installation in residential areas, hotels, and campuses. High-end exhibition venues can be equipped with fully transparent glass back walls.

Floor system: cement fiber board + PP plastic floor, suitable for various environmental conditions, maintaining stable performance whether in high humidity areas or places with large temperature changes. Complying with WSF rebound and shock absorption standards, it can protect players’ joints and reduce the risk of sports injuries.

3. Integrated lighting and smart climate options

The standard configuration places four 150W high-efficiency LED court lights on the top of the frame to meet the needs of training and amateur events.

III. Procurement Guide: Key Considerations for Selecting an Outdoor Squash Facility Supplier

WSF Certification: Only venue systems that have passed WSF certification can meet the professionallevel standards for ballbounce consistency and structural safety, thereby qualifying as official event hosts.

Local Climate Adaptability: It is necessary to verify that the supplier can provide wind load calculation reports specific to the relevant region, corrosionresistance data for coastal areas, and snow load parameters that are compatible with local conditions.

Global Turnkey Services: Prioritize suppliers that offer end-to-end solutions—covering customized design, containerized sea freight, installation guidance, and after-sales spare parts—to avoid the additional costs associated with coordinating multiple vendors.

Conclusion
