With over 20 years of experience, SWISSTRAX manufactures modular polypropylene floor tiles that have become an indispensable choice for industrial, commercial and even private floors. As a world leader in the field, we pride ourselves on providing durable and reliable solutions for various types of installations, including hangar floors.

The aviation industry benefits greatly from our products. Hangars where airplanes are stored and maintained require special flooring that can withstand heavy loads, heavy traffic and frequent spills.

Aircraft hangar flooring faces a number of challenges that make traditional flooring options often unsuitable.

First, the ground must be able to support the weight of large airplanes without cracking or sinking.

The coating must also be resistant to chemicals commonly used in aviation maintenance such as fuel, oil and hydraulic fluids.

In addition, hangar floors should provide adequate drainage to prevent water accumulation that could damage both the floor and the airplane.

He needs to settle in quickly so he has more time to fly than to repair the hangar. The same goes for maintenance: easier cleaning saves daily time.

Several types of flooring are available for canopies, including concrete, epoxy coatings, and painted surfaces. While each option has its advantages, none of them can match the benefits of SWISSTRAX modular polypropylene floor tiles.

Concrete floors may seem like a good option because of their durability. However, they are prone to cracking, which can worsen over time under heavy loads. Epoxy coatings provide some chemical resistance but require frequent reapplication, which can be costly and time-consuming. Painted surfaces are not strong enough to resist wear and tear caused by aircraft movement.

SWISSTRAX polypropylene floor tiles have many advantages that make them ideal for hangar floors:

High load capacity: our tiles can support up to 25 tons per square meter, making them suitable for even the heaviest aircraft. During driving, the supported weight is 32 tons/m².

Chemical Resistance: our tiles are resistant to a wide range of chemicals including hydrocarbons such as Skydroll. This reduces the risk of damage to floors and planes.

In addition, polypropylene is a material that does not leave marks, especially from tires.

You install the floor yourself quickly and easily, without the need for special tools or equipment. This means less downtime and disruptions to hangar operations.

Individual design: our tiles are available in about twenty colors. Create different spaces, paths of travel, or even parking lot signage that will make daily use of your hangar easier. SWISSTRAX tiles are the perfect combination of design and practicality.

Easy maintenance: SWISSTRAX hangar tiles require minimal maintenance as they are easy to clean. Professional washer, water jet or kercher, their drain structure prevents water stagnation and promotes evaporation. A normal cleaning agent is sufficient for cleaning. You can dismantle the tiles individually. This allows you to spot clean a single tile or the floor beneath it.

We manufacture our products 100% in France in our ISO9001 certified factory located in Hauts-de-France (59). An unbeatable quality guarantee that assures you of high performance hangar slabs.

In addition, we use the highest quality raw materials: 100% natural polypropylene. Our tile comes from an original patent. Our reinforced anti-slip fastening system is very strong and durable.

We use the only injection method that ensures uniform distribution of material in the board. We inject material on top of the boards. In this way, the polypropylene is distributed perfectly where the slab experiences the most stress.

The AUTORINGS – SWISSTRAX team supports you throughout your project. We know that our customers are uncompromising when it comes to quality, so we put all our experience to provide you with very high quality products and services.
