Long lasting fields are a huge investment to players across the world. Many organizations are switching to a synthetic field system from natural grass because of how a synthetic turf sports surface is engineered. It is designed to have the correct sports properties, provide comfort and safety to the players, withstand a range of often harsh climatic conditions and be sufficiently durable to perform for eight to ten years.
Lisport machines mimic the effect that cleats have on synthetic turf surfaces and simulates any wear that may occur. From this information, we can accurately predict how long a turf field is projected to last before the fibers begin to break down. Act Global’s monofilament and slit film products are top in the industry and are built to outperform and outlast.
Field testing allows us to understand the factors that are involved in a field’s playability. These include:
Ball rebound
Shock absorption
Deformation
Ball roll
Rotational resistance
Skin friction
Act Global continues to innovate more to protect and keep athletes safe!
