Each year, the sports flooring manufacturer VIACOR and its sports brand Porplastic face the challenge of creating a tennis surface that meets the high demands of the world’s tennis elite and is ready for play in just a few days.

A unique feature of the WTA tournament in Stuttgart is the indoor tennis clay court. It is the only tournament on this tour to be played on an indoor clay court. The mission of the Porplastic installation team is to build a tennis surface for the hall that conveys the players a feeling like they are on clay court. Both the tournament organizers and the players praised the Porplastic RedClay pro tennis flooring system, as the company reports.
