This brochure highlights the Mondo athletic flooring installed throughout the new Wellness + Helfaer Rec facility at Marquette University.
When selecting flooring, requirements included that the product line be high performance, homogenous, and nonporous. The Marquette University Campus Recreation team was very familiar with the Mondo product line and leaned heavily in that direction with solid support from the HOK design team. We reviewed other products and did comparisons, including cost. However, the performance and nature of the Mondo product were key in the decision-making. — Joel Smullen Senior Project Manager, Marquette University “ ”

One distinctive feature of the Wellness + Helfaer Recreation facility is its unique floor design. Instead of the usual multicolored rectangles, Marquette’s flooring consists of diagonally shaped blue and gray pieces, creating a creative, visually striking appearance. To achieve this layout, the Mondo installers performed specialized cutting on-site of the Mondo Sport Impact flooring.
“
We’re in Wisconsin, so lots of snow and salt get tracked into the building, which means the flooring must be cleaned often. But the Mondo Sport Impact flooring is extremely durable, so it stands up to the regular cleaning that’s required and the high traffic wear and tear.

The Mondo Super X 720 track at Marquette also boasts an innovative feature: inlaid lane lines. Unlike most tracks that use painted lane lines, Marquette’s lane lines are made from Mondo’s Super X 720 gold track material, so they won’t chip or peel over time with continued use, like painted lines.
“
The track is comfortable. Some tracks are hard, but the Mondo track is super comfortable to run on.
