The challenge:
The team at Tri-fitness, part of the Live Borders group, came to Origin with the challenge of installing a brand-new site in Galashiels, Scotland. Their aim was to create a complete site where members could do different types of exercises at different intensities.
From Cardio to Functional and HIIT training to Strength and resistance workouts, the space needed to be set out in a well-thought-out way to give multiple spacious areas for members to move around and workout.

All of this equipment is placed on top our 40mm and 20mm High Impact tiles and some Oak Platform Inserts. 40mm tiles are best used in high-impact zones where weights are likely to be dropped. Free weight and Olympic lifting areas are often subject to persistent impact and this flooring minimise sound and vibration to avoid disruption to surrounding areas. The integrated Oak Platform Inserts provide a fantastic area for members to deadlift or perform Olympic lifts.
"It was a pleasure to help Tri Fitness achieve the vision that they had in place, we came up with a unique solution that fitted the profile of space that the client wanted. Richard and his team were very easy to work with throughout the process, the installation was very smooth and carried out brilliantly by Gym Logistics. Overall, the site is a must-see for anyone who is based in the area and I’m sure it will be very successful."
- Matthew O'Connor, Account Manager
