There are some great properties of natural grass however the functionality of natural grass often comes to a halt, especially in the winter months. Ensuring you have the best sports surface should be a priority for elite facilities, that’s why STM are here to deliver to you sports on artificial grass.

Sports on artificial grass is the way forward and here’s why; users can benefit from so many properties that artificial grass holds which natural grass does not…

  • Permanent pitch markings, believe it or not artificial grass does not grow! So there’s no need to keep updating the pitch markings which is an unnecessary expenditure
  • No mowing, watering, fertilising or weeding! EVER!
  • A super durable surface which can be coupled with shock pads to create a soft surface
  • Low maintenance- which can be outsourced or completed in house. A simple ‘drag brushing’ can work wonders for sports on artificial grass.
  • Last up to 20 years! And whenever it needs resurfacing this is a much more straightforward job.
  • An increased number of playing hours. Sports on artificial grass can be played whether its rain or shine due to the all-weather properties that turf has which ensures that drainage is sufficient.
