Synthetic Turf Expertise for Ultimate Performance

Synthetic Turf and Artificial Grass

Synthetic turf can be used for athletic fields, playground resurfacing, residential applications, pedestrian spaces (plazas), and the list goes on. That’s why it’s important to have someone on your team who’s knowledgeable about when, where, and how to use synthetic turf and all the options that come with it.

The benefits of synthetic turf range from lowering maintenance needs to year-round useable surfaces. An environmentally sustainable solution that requires zero watering, mowing, aerating, or fertilizing eases the responsibility of the team tasked with keeping the space looking beautiful. User safety is also taken into consideration when choosing synthetic turf, using options that include shock pads and the right infill mix can create one of the safest field options for your players.

With years of experience working with maintenance staff, turf manufacturers, athletic directors, students, and recreational athletes, our team knows and understands the art of synthetic turf. We can help you choose the right option for the type of application you're looking for while keeping your budget, safety goals, and maintenance needs in mind leading to a top-performing field.

See below for examples of our project experience and our Principles of Synthetic Turf Design.

Our Synthetic Turf Design Principles

Synthetic turf for an athletic field

material selection

We understand the many choices to choose from when designing a synthetic turf area. Some uses require specific turf types, while other uses are less constrained. Starting with the goals for use we can help narrow it down to the perfect system for the application.

USER SAFETY

Synthetic turf offers consistent field conditions with less time spent on maintenance. There are many turf options to choose from to achieve the required safety standards. From shock pads to infill mixes there are many ways to configure a turf system to balance your safety goals for both impact and traction.

A BALANCED SYSTEM

Selecting the right components for a turf system means balancing the needs of use type, safety, site constraints, budget, and maintenance capacity. We can help you select the right synthetic turf system for your project.
