Sustainability

Our innovation isn’t limited to product specs. Our promise to keep players safe on our turf has naturally evolved into an obsession — one with a singular focus to completely eliminate its potential to harm not just people but the environment too. Now in everything we do, we strive for the lowest impact on people and the planet — from Cradle to Cradle™ manufacturing, to circular design, to the utmost care for those who play on and handle our products.

PEOPLE. PLANET. PERIOD. OUR SUSTAINABILITY IS FOCUSED

WE CONSERVE WATER
Water is essential to life and a human right, and it's stewardship is core to our sustainability strategy. From manufacturing to installation, our products address water efficiency, scarcity and quality.

WE BUILD FOR THE FUTURE
We focus on efficient production, reducing the environmental impact of our own operations, and achieving the highest quality manufacturing certifications (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001).

WE USE SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS
We innovate our choice of product components and materials using closed-loop design thinking that respects workers and the planet, resulting in a more sustainable product, and the only artificial turf product to obtain Cradle to Cradle™ Bronze certification.

WE NURTURE HUMAN POTENTIAL
People are central to what we do. We make unlocking their innate talents a focus, ensuring they have the agency to take action and fulfill their potential, and we motivate them through transparency and open communication.

WE SAFEGUARD PEOPLE
We were founded with the promise to make athletes safer during the game — and now we extend that promise to all the lives we touch through rigorous safety testing, product performance, and respect for the wellbeing of our people and our communities.

LOWERING OUR PRODUCT IMPACT

Because sustainable sport is integral to the well-being of our communities, preserving our ecosystems is a part of what drives all of our product innovation. After all, if there’s no planet, there’s no play.

GREENER PRODUCTS

AQUAFLOW

Our AquaFlow backing system allows for nearly 100% permeability. Playgrounds quickly dry after it rains so children can play instead of remaining in classrooms. It keeps water off sidewalks and out of storm drains allowing for percolation into natural soils and aquifers.

VERSATILE

The ultimate drainage and shock underlayment solution, VersaTile delivers the perfect mix of drainage and shock absorption. Made from recycled post-industrial turf and thermoelastomers, VersaTile transforms excess into a green solution.

THERMAGREEN

SportLite by ThermaGreen is a non-woven geotextile shock & drainage pad. Made of post-industrial cross-linked polyethylene, every field installed helps divert over twelve truck-loads of foam from landfills.

PURESELECT

The infill system is the first to granulate olive cores into a high-performance infill. The material derives waste without sacrificing durability and aesthetics.

FINDING NEW HOMES

Many aged sports fields have been repurposed for landscape or recreational use. The system might no longer be right for competitive activities but still has a lot of life for other settings. We encourage and help organizations donate their aged surface to local communities.

PUREFILL

Made from granulated cork which is harvested every 7-years not to damage the trees, PureFill offers a greener alternative to standard infill. Helping reduce surface heat, the system is perfect solution for communities.

DRIVING THE FIELD TO ZERO

When it comes to waste, we have a simple mission: create a future where none of our products ever makes it to a landfill. Getting there isn’t just a journey; it’s a quest. It’s why we’ve devoted our research and development efforts to tackle the complexity required to recycle old turf. It’s why we re-purpose key materials from end-of-life installations to create the advanced components of future products.

And it’s why we continue to be at the forefront of developing technology to expand end-of-life turf applications — transforming would-be waste and dispersed materials into useful new products with renewed value.

While we may not have an exact date, and don’t want to throw out an obscure year in the future, our dedication of DRIVING THE FIELD TO ZERO is very much alive.

Follow our journey.
