As a synthetic pitch ages, granular (sand or rubber) top-ups can be required at regular intervals to overcome issues of infill migration and compaction caused by factors including wind, rain and play. Insufficient levels of infill in a synthetic pitch are not only detrimental to the playing characteristics of an artificial surface, impacting on ball roll and bounce, but will also increase the rate at which the artificial carpet wears.
By topping up the requisite amount of granular infill – matching the grade exactly to the existing material – the carpet fibres are protected and the playing characteristics of the artificial surface are restored.
Technical Surfaces have a range of machinery specifically designed to ensure the application of the rubber or sand onto the artificial surface can be closley regulated, extending the life of the surface and ensuring a perfect playing surface for its users.
