For those building a competitive training space, this is where it starts.
Rigs & Racks

The team will be on hand to talk through the full range of capabilities, including:
- Different layout configurations
- Integrated storage solutions
- Multi-use training stations
For anyone planning a new gym or upgrading an existing space, it is a chance to explore what is possible.

See you on the floor.
More press releases and updates from BLK BOX:
When brothers Patrick and Kevin first approached BLK BOX, they had a vision and an unusual
space. Beneath a building in Embrach, Switzerland, sat an underground facility with huge
potential. What it needed was the right layout, the right equipment, and a partner who
understood functional fitness.
BLK BOX is proud to welcome Timo Garrels as Germany country manager, marking another
important step in the brand’s continued growth across Europe.
BLK BOX is proud to announce our partnership with Fitness Park, our first major official
French partner and a landmark moment in bringing BLK BOX training environments to one of
Europe's most dynamic fitness networks.
Early in Thomas Ramos' career, better meant proving he belonged.
Weight training, cardio, Hyrox preparation, group classes and powerlifting all come together
at Fitness Park Malakoff, a modern, spacious facility built for members who train with
purpose.

LOUGHBOROUGH UNIVERSITY
"For Powerbase, we aimed to collaborate with specialists in various areas, and BLK BOX emerged as the clear choice in the tender process for several reasons. Their extensive expertise in the performance market, coupled with their ability to glean insights from their work in other sectors, greatly benefits us.
While we were confident in our needs for the facility, partnering with a team that offered solutions and an agile engineering approach proved pivotal. We have tangible examples of innovation and collaboration in this facility, such as tailored accessible storage solutions designed to accommodate the mezzanine's pillars.”
