According to the Plexipave website there are four different types of Plexicushion[1]. They are Prestige, Competition, Tournament and 2000.
The Plexicushion Systems consist of a Plexicushion substrate (which is a blend of latex, rubber, and plastic particles) and the 100% acrylic Plexipave Surface.
On 30 May 2007 the Australian Open and Tennis Australia announced Plexicushion Prestige as the new Australian Open surface. The surface was installed in time for the 2008 Australian Open, and was accompanied by a change in surfaces at the lead-up tournaments to the Australian Open. For a list of these tournaments, see 2008 ATP Tour and 2008 WTA Tour.
