Artificial grass is a product used in many areas in our life and ILKESPORT is one of the best artificial turf for sports manufacturer in Turkey. That’s why we produce the most durable, FIFA approved and high quality turf for football stadiums.
Weather doesn’t affect artificial football turf. Thus, these fields are more suitable for sports. ILKESPORT has developed ideal system for soccer by ensuring proper ball performance, optimal safety and enegy return for players. Artificial grass football pitches can be thick. So the turfs of football ground are more durable. The bounce rate of the ball decreases on natural turf floors, but the fields floor is smooth on synthetic grass floors. Artificial turf pitches enhance soccer. Our artificial grass for soccer fields products is resistant to UV rays. Thanks to its fibrous structure, it increases the sliding performance and our long-lasting grass has a warranty of up to 8 years on all ILKESPORT installations.
There are 6 types of synthetic grass used on football fields. There are Omega, Ultimate, Powerspine, Hybrid, Revolution, Duograss. You can learn more about our artificial turf types by reviewing our website.
Installing an artificial grass field is a highly complex and meticulous process. The installation of the artificial soccer field grass has four stages. Let’s examine these stages now.
1.1. Soccer field improvement projects start with facility planning. It should cover money, needs, vision, and delivery.
1.2. You have to set your budget. You must consider the initial capital cost of the project. However, you should consider ongoing operating costs ( including maintenance, staffing, utilities, supplies, depreciation). Projects include factors such as location, scale, project constraints, construction site work, ground conditions and surface quality.
1.3. You should choose a contractor.Tendering selects the contractor.
1.4. Installation Phase: The installation has five sections;
1.4.1. Earthwork
1.4.2. Drainage
1.4.3. Sub-base (elastic layer, asphalt, underground heating, surface irrigation)
1.4.4. Synthetic surfacing
1.4.5. Installation of sport equipment
2.1. Abrade the ground (depth should be 20 cm.)
2.1.2. abrade the graund
2.2. If the ground is soft it should be calendered.
2.3. Make a shutter around the field and lay the pipe within the shutter and pipes diameter should be 3 cm and also close the pipe for prevent the occlusion.
2.4. Lay 19-25mm hard core height should be 20 cm.
2.5. Calendar the hard core.
2.6. Lay 4-12mm hard core and height should be 10 cm.
2.7. Calendar the hard core second times.
2.8. Lay the geotextile felt.
2.9. Lay the synthetic grass carpet.
2.10. Lay the 0.2 – 0.63mm minimum %80 oval quartz sand with machine and use SBR granules for football fields 1.5-3mm.
2.11. Fill the shutter with concrete.
2.12. When creating the fence, we should use 6 meters long vertical side 86mm pipes for the corner, and other vertical pipes should be 76mm.
2.12.1 In the fence we should use vertical side 86mm pipes
2.13. We use 6 poles of 9 meters for lighting and install a 400 w projector.
2.14. 2 goal post dimensions are 1mt x 2.15mt x 4 mt.
2.15. Finally, we use net for top of the field.
A solid foundation is necessary for synthetic turf to be long-lasting. It is necessary to establish a strong foundation. So there is no distortion underground.
Artificial turf is any field’s calling card, but the surface requires maintenance. If you believe the words “Artificial grass is not maintenance-free”, it will not be beneficial for you. Maintaining the artificial turf will not only have a long -lasting, but also eliminates the reasons will endanger the players. Now let’s see what the ingredients are for maintenance.
Maintenance artificial grass includes for football fields;
- Sanitation and disinfection to protect the health of the players
- Upkeep to keep the field from wearing out more quickly
- Watering to reduce temperature on hot days
- Maintenance and testing of the surface hardness to protect against concussions
- Infill replacement
Hot days require carpet pitch watering 1-2 hours before football. Industrial brushes should periodically brush the artificial turf carpet floor. Every two weeks, apply this process to the entire floor. Importantly, our company’s recommendation is to add granules every 6 months on average. Also, it is necessary to frequently collect foreign materials such as small stones, gravel and metal residues in the field.
Football fields use felt (geotextile prevents grass from coming out of the soil), artificial turf, helmet (seaming tape, 28cm wide cloth for joining rolled grass), grass adhesive, silica sand (weight keeps carpet on ground), and SBR granule (infill material, soft ground and keeps fibers upright).
