The B&W Awning Company doesn’t just sell outdoor awnings. While they’ve provided the Lexington, KY, area with quality fabric and vinyl awnings for over 130 years, they also deal in custom wall padding, which they started developing and manufacturing in 1978. Their main focus at the time, with regards to wall padding, was the equine industry. However, there are numerous other applications for this versatile product.

Here are just a few examples:

  • vinyl awningContact Sports & Martial Arts: Wall padding is especially helpful in contact sports. You might find it in high school gymnasiums to protect athletes during wrestling practice or gymnastics. With custom wall padding, the risk of injury in sports or martial arts is greatly reduced.
  • Skating Rinks: Sports and activities that involve ice or roller skating have obvious risks, and the facilities that house them require crash protection. Whether you’re playing ice hockey, curling, or speed skating, wall padding augments existing barriers and makes activities more fun.
  • Columns & Beams: Custom wall padding is useful even in seemingly risk-free environments. For example, supporting beams with sharp edges may require padding to protect people from injuries, such as in a covered play area, warehouse, or foyer.
  • Calming Rooms: Wall padding is an important aspect of de-escalation rooms—also known as calming rooms—which are often found in hospitals, daycare centers, schools, and retirement homes. These rooms help provide a safe, temporary environment for those at risk of injuring themselves or others.
  • Animal Training: Wall padding is useful for many animal-related applications. It can make dog kennels safer, for example, or provide a more secure place to train animals. It can even be used as surgical table padding in veterinary hospitals.
