Artificial Grass MUGA 8 Years on! Still looking Ultramodern!

29th July 2016

This summer we have so many bookings for artificial grass MUGA maintenance’s in schools all over the country! This is a crucial part to ensure your surface lasts in the long term future. St Paulinus school in Guisborough have been using Synthetic Turf Management for their MUGA maintenance over the past 8 years (and we even installed it too). This sports surface has stayed unspoiled, 'untrodden' and looks untouched! The way a MUGA should look!

Every summer STM are on the scene at St Paulinus to attend to the artificial grass MUGA.

We bring with us specialist artificial grass machines to ensure the maintenance is done correctly and as we know this surface like the back of our hand now, we know what to bring!

Clearing the debris is a crucial part of any maintenance, not just because it looks better but also because it will decrease health and safety risks whilst ensuring contaminants don’t penetrate the surface. At this particular school, the MUGA is situated near a gravel stone border therefore stones often flick up onto the surface. These are removed with a specialist machine…

Can you see which side has been power brushed?

We have seen our share of bad looking surfaces that have years knocked off their lifespan due to them not being looked after. A simple maintenance every year can work wonders and ensure that an artificial grass MUGA that is supposed to last up to 20 years, actually lasts 2! Of course this does depend on how often the surface is used and there are other factors such as a combination of bad weather and litter however these can all be prevented.

We are sure you are eager to see what an 8-year artificial grass MUGA looks like (or should look like with proper maintenance!) …
