Bike Track, Inc. traces its beginnings to a small research and development company dedicated to creating solutions that reduce human impact on the environment.
Its original product, a rugged, plastic, anti-slip tile designed to provide wheel control and accessibility on steps and access ramps, quickly gained popularity among bicyclists and users of wheelchairs since it eliminated the need for costly excavation and site preparation.
In 2000, after consulting with military research facilities and a number of shelter manufacturers, it became obvious that our portable, easily assembled, and weather-resistant tiles would be ideal for use as flooring under most tent and shelter configurations - with the added benefit of being reusable indefinitely and impervious to the rotting and limited longevity of plywood.
Over the years, our patented, hardened plastic flooring systems have been continually refined and upgraded in response to requests from users in the field, including the addition of cable management capabilities, staging options, and both one- and two-inch options.
Today, Bike Track is the premier provider of flooring systems to a wide range of military, business, and government organizations, as well as the country's leading shelter manufacturers.
