AIREX®
AIREX®’s highlight at IHRSA 2013 was a new generation of exercise mats. These mats set new standards in terms of functionality and quality. Stricter hygiene requirements were taken into account by using a new, highly-effective antibacterial substance. The mats’ resistance against aging was also significantly improved once again. AIREX® has expanded the existing color palette with three highly modern colors as well: with Charcoal, Platinum and Terra, AIREX® intends to optimally meet market requirements in terms of interior design. AIREX® has launched the three new colors in the best-selling Coronella and Corona mats with a length of 200 cm.
