A Glasgow-based sports flooring firm, Sprung Gym Flooring, has ‘hit the groundrunning’, having been asked to supply floors for the sets of three global movie and TV productions.
Producers of ‘Mr Loverman’, ‘Mutiny’ (starring Jason Stratham) and ‘The Woman in Cabin 10’, starring Keira Knightly, have all requested set flooring from the Glasgow business.
With Glasgow firmly established as a world centre for film production - with big-budget movies such as World War Z and Indiana Jones previously having been filmed in the City Centre - local businesses have boomed with requests for sets, costumes and people to play extras.
Sprung supplied a sprint track for Mutiny; rubber gym flooring rolls for The Woman in Cabin 10, and is set to supply tatami mats for Mr Loverman.
Offering commercial and home gym flooring as well as a multitude of sports mats, sports floors and tiles, as well as FIFA-approved outdoor artificial turf, the company also floors schools, nurseries and hotels. Its floors are installed at Manchester United’s training facilities as well as branhes of Soho House and the firm provided flooring for several venues at the last Commonwealth Games to be held in Glasgow.
Managing Director Richard McKay said: “Glasgow’s starring role as a production centre for the global film industry is exciting not just for the people of the City, who get to see their hometown portrayed in different guises on the big screen, but for local businesses, who can really benefit from the big productions that are filmed here.
“From supplying flooring for gyms to seeing our products as part of the sets for movies that will be seen around the world has been surreal but fascinating for our team, which is based in the Hillington area of the city.
“We hope to see a great many more big-name movies being filmed in Glasgow in the future, creating jobs and revenue for local businesses.”
Sprung Gym Flooring is based at 51 Watt Road, Hillington.
