1978

The start of a concept

The foundation of our success was laid in 1978, the year I officially founded BUDO 2000. As a passionate martial artist with experience in Kyokushin Karate and kickboxing, among other disciplines, I was driven by the frustration that a suitable floor simply didn't exist. I decided not to wait and see, but started my own company to develop the solution myself: the original tensioned floor. My mission upon founding was clear: to create a revolutionary surface that safely absorbs the hard knocks of martial arts without compromising stability. What began as a pioneering project has grown over the decades into the market leader you now know as Spanvloeren.nl.

Growing demand

With thousands of satisfied customers in our database, we noticed one pressing question recurring in our service department: "Which product do you recommend for the best maintenance?" We saw firsthand that regular cleaning products often fell short; they left greasy streaks or simply weren't powerful enough for deep cleaning. We didn't settle for half measures and set out to find the ultimate match for our stretch floors. That search led us to Miral: the only formula we recommend with 100% certainty to keep your floor in top condition, without haze and preserving its original appearance.

The search

To provide our customers with honest advice, we launched an intensive, extensive investigation into all available cleaning products on the market. As specialists, we tested countless products, but time and again, we were disappointed: what was on the shelves simply didn't meet our specific needs. After all these tests, the conclusion was clear and unavoidable: no existing product fully met our strict requirements for both safety and results. We refused to compromise on the quality of our floors, which made us realize that there was no standard solution for us.
2023

The perfect formula

Because waiting for a better solution wasn't an option, we decided to take matters into our own hands and take charge. In close collaboration with chemical specialists, we finally developed our own unique formula in 2023: the Miral line. Our mission in this development was to find the perfect balance: a product that is merciless against stubborn dirt and residue, yet remains completely safe for the floor's structure. With this, we have come full circle and now offer the uncompromising quality of maintenance you've come to expect from our floors.
2025

Now for everyone

Today marks a special milestone, as we've decided to share our secret with the world. With the official launch of our exclusive cleaning line, we're making high-quality, professional maintenance truly accessible to the general public for the first time. While this quality was previously reserved for industrial specialists, we're now bringing that power directly to your home. We firmly believe that everyone should be able to enjoy a floor in top condition, and with these products, that perfect result is finally within reach for every user.
