Plexicushion is a tennis surface system made by Plexipave, a company based in Massachusetts, USA.

According to the Plexipave website there are four different types of Plexicushion. 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.
