GRASSMASTER HYBRID TURF
A GrassMaster pitch is composed of 100% natural grass reinforced with unique synthetic fibres, meticulously installed on the subbase.
High performance polypropylene monofilament fibres (HPF), produced in-house by a patented method
Fibres are injected 18 cm deep, in a grid of approximately 2 cm x 2 cm to provide vertical reinforcement throughout the pitch
Fibres protrude 1,5-2 cm above the root zone surface
20 million HPF fibres reinforce every single GrassMaster pitch
GrassMaster HPF fibres perform three primary functions on the pitch:
Give stability to a predominately sand-based structure by reinforcing the profile
Provide an anchor around which the grass roots can entwine
Maintain the stability, uniformity and even level of the playing surface
Benefits
A GrassMaster pitch is the favourite playing surface of athletes, groundsmen and owners around the world, for both qualitative and quantitative reasons.
