A company specializing in supplying clients with commercial wall padding secures relationships with a new manufacturer, cutting shipping costs and times for clients in the Southeast.

Wall padding is a key component of any sports or gym facility. For Institutional Sports Equipment (ISE), it is a top-selling product and an essential part of the gym layouts for many clients, including schools, recreation centers, private gyms, and multipurpose spaces at churches and community centers. While quality and durability are top priorities when choosing wall padding, using a manufacturer close to the client can have financial benefits, helping to reserve limited funds and stretch the budget. By partnering with a new manufacturer in North Carolina, Institutional Sports Equipment aims to ease the cost of shipping wall padding while delivering the same high-quality clients expect from the company.
As owner and equipment consultant for ISE, Tom Nicotera has made it his mission to help clients choose commercial-grade sports equipment that fits their facility and meets their unique use cases. While he can assist with ordering everything from basketball goals and pickleball nets to scoreboards and bleachers, wall padding is one item for which demand never dips. Many clients want to add protective wall padding around walls, hoops, and other obstacles to keep athletes safe. However, demand for padding for sensory rooms and even homes is also growing, driving demand for quality products.
“Some clients already have wall padding in place when they contact me about purchasing equipment for their space,” remarked Nicotera. “However, for those without it, wall padding is a key piece of the project. Unfortunately for some, the distance from their facility to the manufacturer can add significantly in the form of freight costs. With a trusted manufacturer in North Carolina, we will be able to help clients keep costs low and quality high.”
Although standard wall padding will meet many facilities’ needs, the 2-foot by 6-foot panels don’t work for every situation. Luckily, wall padding is nearly infinitely customizable. Printed indoor wall padding can display team spirit proudly throughout the space. Because even the most ordinary spaces contain pillars, poles, doors, outlets, and other irregularities, manufacturers make padding panels in custom sizes and shapes to maintain functionality and safety.
“Modern athletic equipment is designed for playability and injury prevention. Breakaway rims, shatterproof backboards, and wall padding all work together to enhance the way your space works for players,” stated Nicotera. “I personally vet each manufacturer before I recommend their product to my clients, and I am excited to show my clients what this new manufacturer has to offer those in the Southeast US.”
