Theme parks are visited by thousands or even tens of thousands ofguests every day. This causes a high degree of wear and tear, especially in areas with constant, concentrated foot traffic.
Wear and tear on the floor is particularly high in queues, which manifests itself in superficial paint flaking, but also in deeper abrasions or cracks in the material. This is particularly noticeable in immersive, elaborately themed areas.
In this case, the wear and tear is perceived as particularly disturbing. However, renovating the floor surface takes time. This would mean that important main attractions would have to be closed for several days – a situation that parks want to avoid at all costs!
We at porviva therefore sought a method of renovating highly themed paths quickly and with long-lasting effects. This led to our latest innovation: the magic carpet!
Like a real carpet, the Magic Carpet can be rolled up and bent. This makes it easy to lay in strips.
The magic carpet combines numerous important advantages
- Theming: Individual theming is easily possible: colors, texture, and materials of the surfaces can be selected individually. From a beach to a paved road or a rocky path, anything is possible.
- Installation time: One of the most important features is quick installation. The Magic Carpet can be installed within two hours and can be walked on after four hours. This means that repairs can be carried out overnight.
- Durability: Once installed, the Magic Carpet will last for many years, even with heavy foot traffic on its surface.
- Easy installation: No external personnel are required for installation. All necessary work can be carried out by the park's team.
- Additional features such as anti-slip or a cooling effect are available on request, which is particularly relevant for use in water parks.
- The Magic Carpet adheres even in humid conditions and with large temperature fluctuations on the surface, and can even be installed underwater in pools.
The Magic Carpet significantly simplifies the maintenance and renovation of walkways in high-traffic water parks and theme parks!

We have installed a mockup in conjunction with the water park currently under construction at the Reefesedge Resort in Australia. This will enable us to gather important insights into the practical application of the Magic Carpet.
