Philadelphia, PA, January 28, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Last year, the University of Pennsylvania chose Rekortan as the surface for its Franklin Field running track. The track was completely renovated and is now ready for the upcoming spring season including the Penn Relays. Rektoran has been the official track surface of Franklin Field since 1987. Rekortan is made by Advanced Polymer Technology (APT), a Harmony, PA-based manufacturer. APT oversaw the renovation and installation of the new track surface.
“Franklin Field is one of the premier track facilities in the country,” said Gary Wilson, APT Director of Sales, Americas. “We’re pleased that Rekortan’s durable, innovative surface will continue to power the speed of runners at Franklin Field and the Penn Relays.”
