Certification is per system, and it is the gate.
A manufacturer's membership is not a product approval. Every certificate below is quoted with its number and the date it expires, taken from the issuing body's document rather than from a brochure.
- FIBA licensed
- 5 of 9
- BWF Grade 1
- 3 of 9
- Lapsed as published
- 2
Every approval has an expiry date. Two of these have passed it.
An approval is not a property of a floor. It is a document, issued against a named system, for a fixed period, and it runs out. So this page prints the certificate number and the date each one expires, taken from the certificates themselves rather than from the catalogue, and it prints them whether or not they still run.
The BWF certificates matter most here. 3 systems hold Grade 1 International Elite, and of the three certificates KTL publish, the two covering Multiflex Advanced V2 and PRO II V2 ran from 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2026. As published, they have lapsed. We have asked KTL for the renewals and expect they exist; until we have them, this is what the documents say, and a badminton client should hear it from us rather than from a tender panel.
FIBA runs to 31 December 2026 across all 5 licensed systems, and IHF to 30 June 2027. Both are narrower than the catalogue implies: the FIBA licence names beech, hevea and maple, and the IHF certificate covers hevea, lacquered. KTL offer six species. An approval does not travel to a species the certificate does not list.
EN 14904 is a European sports-floor standard, tested here with the Danish Technological Institute. It classifies a floor; it does not measure it for you. The catalogue publishes class letters and no shock-absorption, vertical-deformation or ball-rebound values, so a tender written around a number has to get that number from the manufacturer.

Numbers and dates are transcribed from the certificates KTL publish, read on 2026-09-05, not from the catalogue. The two disagree in one place worth knowing about: the catalogue prints the FIBA licences as WF73-01 and so on, the certificate prints WF-073-01. We show the certificate’s form, because that is the one FIBA will recognise if a client checks, and we have asked KTL to confirm it. If a submittal needs the certificates themselves rather than this table, ask and we will get them.
What the catalogue does not contain.
Every page of it was read and the absences below were recorded rather than assumed away. On a floor specification the missing number is usually the one that decides something. None of these gaps stops a floor being specified. All of them go on the enquiry.
- Any price, rate, budget figure, MOQ, incoterm or lead time.
- Panel dimensions and weights for the portable systems - 'light weight panels' is the only statement.
- Board widths other than the 22x130 mm quoted on the fixed-system detail pages.
- Per-species technical properties.This one is now answered, though not by the catalogue. KTL published density, hardness and shrinkage for six timbers in a sales presentation, citing the Wood Database rather than testing them, and it covers four of the six species they sell. See the figures.
- Shock absorption / vertical deformation / ball-rebound VALUES - only the EN 14904 class letters.Partly answered, and only for rolling load. KTL published a test report giving the wheel load, the number of passes, the test area and the result for all six species. Shock absorption, vertical deformation and ball rebound are still class letters with no figure behind them. See the report.
- Warranty terms beyond '10 years on the 7-layer UV coating at normal wear and tear' (p8).
- Maintenance and cleaning regime - listed as a choosing factor on p3 but never covered.KTL have since answered part of this directly. What they said, and what it still does not cover, is on the systems page. Read it there.
- Any statement about slab moisture, DPM or Thai tropical-humidity slab conditions; KTL's moisture story is entirely board-side (customised moisture content, back-lacquered boards).
That includes price. There is no rate, no budget figure and no lead time anywhere in the document, so there is none on this site either. Any number here would be ours rather than the manufacturer’s, and a floor is not something to guess at.
