Junckers Extends as Official Global FIBA Supplier Through to LA 2028
Table of Contents
Junckers has extended its long-term partnership with FIBA, basketball's global governing body, continuing as Official Global Supplier for another four years. The renewed agreement covers the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2027 in Qatar and the Olympic basketball tournaments at Los Angeles 2028, extending a relationship that began in 2021.
Prospec Surfaces is an official distributor of Junckers sports floors in Singapore, and we are glad to share this latest development from the manufacturer whose systems we specify and install here.
Key Takeaways
-
Junckers has been a FIBA partner since 2021, supplying the playing surface for the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 and the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
-
The extended agreement covers four tournaments: EuroBasket 2025, the Women's Basketball World Cup 2026, the Basketball World Cup 2027 and the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic basketball tournaments.
-
The courts use the Pro Complete 44 portable system, which can be dismantled, transported and reinstalled at another venue.
-
Junckers states that its sports floor systems are accredited by FIBA for Level 1, 2 and 3 competition.
-
Prospec has installed sports halls to international standard in Singapore, and has worked with Junckers portable flooring locally — including an international netball match at VivoCity and sponsored floors for the Singapore Youth Olympic Games.
A Partnership Extended to 2028
The renewed partnership continues Junckers' involvement in some of the world's most prestigious international basketball tournaments, providing high-performance hardwood sports flooring for FIBA's top-level global competitions.
The extended agreement covers four major events:
-
FIBA EuroBasket 2025
-
FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup 2026
-
FIBA Basketball World Cup 2027
-
Olympic Basketball Tournaments — Los Angeles 2028
This is not a new relationship being announced. Junckers has been a FIBA partner since 2021, and its floors have already carried major events including the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 and the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The extension simply runs that track record forward another four years.
The Floors at the Women's Basketball World Cup 2026
The most recent showcase was the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup 2026, held in Berlin from 4 to 13 September 2026. Games were played on Junckers hardwood sports floors at both Berlin Arena and Max-Schmeling-Halle, providing the playing surface for the world's leading women's national teams.
Junckers supplied and installed the floors, including the tournament and sponsor branding incorporated directly into the playing surface. The courts used the company's Pro Complete 44 portable floor system, designed specifically for high-level international competition.
Inside the Pro Complete 44 System
The Pro Complete 44 is engineered to deliver the performance characteristics elite basketball demands: consistent ball bounce, shock absorption and stability underfoot.
Its defining feature is that it is portable. The entire system can be dismantled, transported and reinstalled at another venue — which is what makes it suited to a touring international tournament, where a competition-grade court has to exist in an arena for ten days and then leave.
What FIBA Accreditation Actually Measures
FIBA accredits sports floor systems by competition level, and Junckers states that its systems are accredited for Level 1, 2 and 3 competition.
The levels reflect how demanding the intended use is, with Level 1 covering the highest tier of international competition. The underlying tests look at the qualities a player actually feels: how consistently the ball rebounds across the court, how much impact the floor absorbs when a player lands, and how the surface behaves underfoot during a change of direction.
For a specifier, the accreditation level is a useful shorthand. It tells you the system has been measured against a published standard rather than described in marketing terms, and it lets you match the floor to the level of play a hall is actually built for.
Why This Matters for Singapore Projects
Sports halls built to international standard are not a distant prospect in Singapore — we have installed a great many of them here.
We have also worked with Junckers portable flooring here. It was used for an international netball match held at VivoCity, and we have sponsored portable floors for the Singapore Youth Olympic Games.
Those are two different products, and the distinction matters when specifying. A permanent sports floor is built into the hall, engineered for daily use over decades, and designed around the building it sits in — this is the wooden sports flooring category, including the UnoBAT sprung systems and the Junckers CLIP system. A portable floor such as the Pro Complete 44 is laid for the duration of a tournament or event and then lifted, stored and reused elsewhere. Both meet competition standards; they answer different questions about how a venue is used.
If you are planning a sports hall, gymnasium or multi-purpose court — or need a portable court for a tournament or event — get in touch with the Prospec Surfaces team to talk through which system suits the level of play.
