The super-strong bumper car floor for the Seaplex sports facilities onboard the new generation of Quantum-class vessels for[ds_preview] Royal Caribbean International (RCI) has been described by Dutch flooring & decking specialist Bolidt. Both of the new Quantum-class vessels »Quantum of the Seas« and »Anthem of the Seas« are mould-breaking vessels in many respects, setting new standards in environmental protection and safety, Bolidt says. They both feature Seaplex, a multi-purpose sports facility. According to Bolidt, for the first time passengers can enjoy bumper cars at sea, in an area that can be converted for basketball, roller-skating and circus skills classes.
Seaplex is considered the largest indoor space at sea, and demanded innovative flooring technology from Bolidt. On both ships the Dutch company collaborated closely with the design team of Wilson Butler Associates, as well as Royal Caribbean itself on Seaplex flooring. Bolidt sees Seaplex also as an visually stunning, »that helps make this a very special place onboard.«
The Dutch company, that was founded in 1964, has supplied decking for many parts of the outdoor areas onboard the cruise vessels, as well as the balconies and galley areas. In addition to Bolideck Future Teak and Bolideck Select Soft, Royal Caribbean specified Bolideck Select Hard, Bolideck 525 and Bolideck Galleydeck for their new cruise ships.
