Treadmills & Cardio Equipment

Sports Lodge distributes Gym Factory's cardio line-up as part of its wider commercial equipment range. For gyms in the UK, Canada, and the Northern US, the current Gym Factory cardio selection includes two treadmill formats and three additional cardio machines, giving operators a focused set of commercial cardio options that can be specified as part of a complete Gym Factory-equipped floor. The cardio range is more concentrated than Gym Factory's broader 180+ machine strength catalogue, making it well suited to facilities that want essential commercial cardio stations within the same overall equipment brand.

What's actually in the range

Gym Factory's cardio line sits inside its dedicated "Cardio Equipment" shop category, separate from the push, pull, and leg machines that make up most of the 180+ product catalogue. Here's what's confirmed, with Gym Factory's ex-VAT official manufacturer prices.

• CA1 Commercial Treadmill (for €3,885) — a motorised belt built for daily gym traffic rather than home use: the standard format most members expect to see on a cardio floor, and the one to spec first if your members are used to a conventional running belt.
• CA2 Curved Treadmill (for €3,675) — a non-motorised, curved-deck treadmill driven entirely by the runner's own stride. No motor means nothing to burn out under back-to-back HIIT classes, and the self-paced deck suits sprint intervals and functional training programming better than a fixed-speed belt.
• CA3 Elliptical Trainer (for €3,360) — a low-impact cross-trainer for members who want a cardio session without the joint load of running, useful for rehab-conscious members and mixed-ability group floors.
• CA4 Recumbent Bike (for €2,940) — a seated, back-supported cycling machine, the lowest-impact option in the range and a common request from older members or anyone easing back in after injury.
• CA5 Stair Climber (for €3,780) — a continuous stepping machine for members who want an intensive lower-body cardio hit without the impact of running or the seated position of a bike.

That's the full confirmed range. There's no incline-focused treadmill tier, no air bike, no dedicated rowing machine, and no spin/studio bike published in Gym Factory's cardio category at the time of writing. If your gym plan depends on those formats, source them separately for now and revisit this page as the range grows.

Built on the same commercial-duty standard as the rest of the range

Every Gym Factory machine, cardio included, ships under the same tiered warranty structure rather than a single blanket number: frame and structural steel are covered for 30 years, mechanical moving parts (bearings, shafts, joints, pulleys, fasteners) for 36 months, cables and belts for 12 months, and upholstery for 6 months. That's the same standard applied across Gym Factory's 180+ machine catalogue, for original purchasers under normal gym use — worth knowing when you're comparing a five-model cardio line against a specialist brand's much longer treadmill list, because the frame behind these five machines is built to the same structural spec as the strength equipment sharing your gym floor.

Production runs 6–8 weeks per order, with EU delivery typically 1–2 weeks after production finishes; delivery into Canada and the Northern US takes longer, so build that into any opening-date planning. Orders are confirmed with a 50% deposit, balance due once production completes and before shipment, and Gym Factory turns around a full quote within 48 hours of a complete request — useful if you're pricing a cardio corner alongside a strength floor and need both numbers on the same timeline.

Where cardio fits on a mixed gym floor

Most commercial gym floors pair a cardio zone with strength stations rather than running either in isolation, and that's the plan this range is built to support — a small, purpose-built cardio corner sitting alongside a Gym Factory strength floor rather than trying to compete with a 40-treadmill cardio hall on its own. Exact footprint and clearance figures for each cardio machine aren't published in the catalogue researched for this page, so if floor space is tight, request the full spec sheet at quote stage rather than estimating from the product names alone. Any layout-planning support beyond that spec sheet is still being finalised on Sports Lodge's side, so it isn't presented here as a guaranteed service.

How this compares to dedicated cardio brands

This is the section worth being upfront about. Retailers who specialise in cardio — stocking Life Fitness, Technogym, Precor, Matrix, and similar brands — typically publish a full spec sheet per treadmill: motor power, incline range, top speed, screen size, and Bluetooth or app connectivity, often across five or six price tiers per format. Gym Factory's public catalogue doesn't currently publish that level of granular spec for its cardio line, unless a client has asked for a spec sheet personally; then Gym Factory makes sure the client gets that. If a like-for-like spec comparison against a named competitor model matters to your buying decision, ask for Gym Factory's cardio spec sheet directly when you request a quote, rather than assuming parity with a dedicated cardio manufacturer's published data. What you do get, confirmed, is a smaller, commercial-grade range under the same warranty and manufacturing standard as the rest of a Gym Factory fit-out — the trade-off is choice within cardio, not build quality.
