Ocean City, NJ—54,000 square feet of Act Global’s aviation artificial grass, AvTurf, is installed along the entire length of the runway’s west/northwest side and in safety areas at both ends.
Ocean City Municipal Airport is located on a barrier island between the Atlantic Ocean and Great Egg Harbor Bay. Located so close to water, the airport is prone to erosion, high tides, and safety hazards from birds.
With the newly installed AvTurf, the surface will be resistant to erosion, force burrowing species to relocate, eliminate bird strikes, and provide a variety of other benefits.
Along with its safety benefits, AvTurf will save the airport both time and money by removing the need for watering, fertilizing, or mowing.
AvTurf is fully tested for safety, performance, and longevity. With installations worldwide, AvTurf is the optimal safety solution for airport ground cover with installations worldwide.
