Football is a majestic game that exhilarates the world, and it demands a playing field that reflects its beauty, elegance, and passion. A well-built football pitch is more than its looks and magnitude; it’s about the player’s safety and performance. But conventional grass fields can be a headache, with uneven surfaces, muddy patches, and the heavy task of maintenance.
The world’s most popular sport has witnessed a significant amount of progress in technology and the transformation of playing conditions throughout the years. It’s been a while since we said our goodbyes to muddy patches and uneven surfaces on natural grass pitches.
Artificial football turfs have changed the game in sports quarters and revolutionised the game itself! In this article, we are going to discuss the transformation journey, the impact, intricate details, and key factors of a professional football turf installation.
Football surfaces have a long history, starting with uneven and unpredictable conditions on open fields. As the sport gained popularity, standardisation efforts led to the widespread use of natural grass pitches. However, natural grass was susceptible to wear, tear, weather conditions, and maintenance, affecting match quality.
The introduction of artificial turf in the 1960s marked a significant shift in football surfaces. Initially met with a lot of doubts, artificial turf improved as technology improved, delivering better quality and durability. After years of advancement, artificial football turfs have become a significant part of sports circles.
While preparing to install a pitch, there are some key factors you should consider:
Reflecting on durability and maintenance is important. Artificial football turfs withstand heavy usage and weather conditions, which easily translates to lower maintenance needs and more time for players on the pitch.
Safety and consistency are crucial too, when it comes to a football pitch. Our high-end products are the result of research to create surfaces that minimise the risk of injury. Shock-absorbing infills and advanced technology combined with quality drainage systems eliminate the risk and make artificial pitches a safer option compared to traditional grass pitches. The consistency of artificial pitches is commendable too. It eliminates the variability of natural grass pitches and enhances the performance of players.
Artificial turfs are cost-effective in the long run due to lower maintenance costs; thus, they are a perfect long-term investment for sports clubs, schools, and organisations. Not to mention advantages like fast-paced matches that are not faced by weather, accessibility, and the chance to enhance players skills due to the consistency of the pitch.
A turf installation process must be carried out at the start by analysing the site. Setting specific project goals and taking a professional approach to the process from the start will give us excellent results.
Our approach to artificial turf installation is both professional and scientific. The experts at Surekha Exports go through the prepared site and determine the kind of installation method according to the geographical condition of the land and other concerns. We only use advanced machinery to maintain international standards.
Preparing the site by removing debris and uneven surfaces is a crucial first step that ensures a longer lifespan for your turf. Choosing the right turf to maintain specific standards, such as playability, durability, and safety, is also necessary.
Base installation is the process of installing a stable base material on the cleared surface with geotextile fabric to create a solid foundation, followed by shock pad installation.
After unrolling and cutting the turf to fit the football turf dimensions, infill application is carried out. This is an important step to be taken to enhance the turf’s stability and give a realistic appearance to the pitch.
Turf securing is the next step to ensure our pitch is tight and even across the field. Field markings and logos are added after securing the turf for a professional finish.
And just like that, we have transformed our site from bare ground to green glory!
