Artificial turf. The ideal option for different sports

Artificial turf is, without a doubt, the best option for sports fields. Over the years, technology in this area has advanced considerably, and studies have been carried out to determine which material is best to avoid being so affected by the sun’s rays, to improve the resistance to the coming and going of the players –and at the same time– a softness that does not hurt them when falling or jumping to look for the ball. And even to avoid annoying puddles.

The work must be carried out in polyethylene, using an appropriate decitex, the measurement of the fiber, better controlling the expansion or contraction caused by the climate, preventing fissures or tears in the turf. At Gardenstore, we recommend conditioning the field beforehand, since sometimes it may be unsuitable for installing artificial turf.

A Trend in the World of Sports

The world of sports is very varied, and many are practiced outdoors. Rugby, soccer, paddle tennis, and also hockey and golf are practiced on grass fields. And, as sports fields demand a lot of maintenance time (and this implies money), it is for that reason that within this sector there is a trend to switch to artificial turf.

Whereas in a conventional field, it is necessary to water, protect from pests, prune constantly… with artificial turf this is a thing of the past. Not to mention that the useful life of the playing field is extended since, on average, a natural turf has a limited duration, unlike artificial turf that will last for many years.

It is a long-term investment unlike the natural option, not to mention that it will look practically the same or better. In addition, it would not be necessary to be pruning weeds. And, as far as technology is concerned, it has been sought that the physical reactions of the rebound of the different balls are not affected by the synthetic material, imitating natural turf as much as possible. Nor is it intended to affect the mobility of the player. At Gardenstore we are aware of this. That is why we have an advisory line designed to answer your questions.
