News from Production: Creating Wonderful Designs with Artificial Turf

25th April 2018

The production team have been busy with green artificial turf recently completing some fantastic designs for a school project, which includes a grey roadway and a penalty football box area with additional sports markings.

Did you know that STM can create almost anything with our good quality artificial turf?

Why Artificial Turf?

As a sport and play specialist, we choose to work with artificial turf due to the properties that the product holds, which we think make it the best! Not only does it adhere to certain safety standards and can be coupled with various underlay, but we think the possibilities of it are endless! It’s degree of flexibility and range of colours and textures available have allowed us to create some colourful, educative and complex designs over the past few years with a team of dedicated professionals who just love artificial turf.

Some of our designs include:

Designing Artificial Turf

Quite often STM are contracted to complete full-sized sports pitches and huge playgrounds where we are required to create a specific dynamic base. Therefore, we try to be as time-effective as possible.

If our artificial turf projects require intricate designs and details such as children’s playground areas or detailed sports pitch markings, before the work gets well underway in preparing the base, often we will make the designs in house first. This is because it can be a lengthy process in cutting and gluing. The glue often takes a day to dry and we always want to limit the time on site as much as possible to provide limited disruption.

A Roadway and Goal Box

But this week was specifically for education and the team have been cutting white line marking and designing sports markings to exact specifications which will be made into a football pitch when transported to site. In addition, this grey and white roadway was spiralled into the surface and cut into a wave shape which pupils at the school can use for their PE lessons and playtime.Left the goal box waiting to dry.
