FieldTurf is Football
Liverpool, West Ham United, Paris Saint Germain, Olympique
Lyonnais, Werder Bremen, and Seattle Sounders.

Why is FieldTurf the #1 choice for football? Independent
studies show that FieldTurf has grass-like playability. FieldTurf
is ideal for football because of its fibre technology (ball
roll and performance), heavyweight infill system (energy
restitution and shock absorption), and wide gauge tufting
(playability and safety).

Their turf
is good! Its
different from
any other turf
you play in
the league.
Thats an
amazing
one.

FC BARCELONA AJAX

FieldTurf and FieldTurf Iberica have been working with FC
Barcelona for over 20 years. Most recently, FieldTurf became
the Official Sports Surfaces Supplier of FC Barcelona
installing four new pitches at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper,
home of the famed development program La Masia. Emili
Sabadell, FC Barcelonas Director of Operations, was quoted
as saying that the agreement with FieldTurf is very beneficial
for FC Barcelona, as we will replace the current artificial turf,
which was installed ten years ago, with new turf of a quality
that is appropriate for our youth football.
When Ajax needs artificial turf, they turn to FieldTurf.
FieldTurf is installed at Amsterdam ArenA (surrounding
the pitch) as well as on 5 pitches at their training facility,
including the revolutionary Powerhill facility. According to
Henri van der Aat, CCO of Ajax, We have had a very good
experience with FieldTurf football turf systems for many
years and that is one of the reasons why we have chosen
FieldTurf again. After examining all the most advanced
football turf systems on the market, we are sure that
FieldTurf is one of the best solutions.

The 2012 study conducted by Prozone, an independent consulting firm Criteria FIFA 2 Star FieldTurf Revolution
specializing in football performance, confirms that there are No Major
Differences in playability on FieldTurf or natural grass. Prozone installed a 1- Ball Roll 4m - 8m 6.8m

player tracking system on two fields one at Luzhniki Stadium (FieldTurf) 2- Ball Rebound 0.60m 0.85m 0.79m
and the other at Khimki Arena (natural grass). Luzhniki has had FieldTurf
3- Shock Absorption 60% - 70% 68%
installed for their pitch since 2006 and the results in key playability
categories indicate that FieldTurf is equal to natural grass when it comes to 4- Vertical Deformation 4mm 10mm 8.0mm

Saprissa

In 2003, Estadio Ricardo Saprissa was the first high

profile stadium in Latin America to be granted the right
by FIFA to have its surface changed to FieldTurf. The
project pioneered an enormous growth of FieldTurf fields
in the area, and in 2013, Deportivo Saprissa renewed its
commitment to FieldTurf installing a brand new surface
at the stadium.

Nicknamed La Cueva del Monstruo (The Monsters

Cave), Estadio Saprissa is known as one of the largest
and most intimidating stadiums in Latin America for
opposing teams, hosting matches for both Deportivo
Saprissa and the Costa Rican National team.

 FieldTurf comes from humble beginnings. Its debut in the
sports surfacing industry was in 1988, with the introduction

The Company that of a synthetic grass system for tennis courts and a synthetic
grass surface used to minimize wear and tear around

Revolutionized golf practice tees. The company then began developing

synthetic turf surfaces for other sports installations, including

the Industry
football, American football and baseball. FieldTurf focused on
perfecting a sports field system with a sand and rubber infill,
which provided superior athlete safety, high performance and
extreme durability. The infilled artificial turf industry was born in
1994, when FieldTurf installed its first full-size football field.

Quality Manufacturing
During the manufacturing process there are three aspects to
turf construction Fibre Production, Tufting and Coating. It is
important to know that FieldTurf controls all three aspects of
the value chain. Nothing is left to a third party. Nothing is left
to chance. This provides FieldTurf clients with a level of quality
assurance that simply cannot be matched.

Fibre Production: FieldTurfs fibres are produced at our very

own facility in Germany. This state-of-the art facility was opened FieldTurf Fibre Production Plant -
Abtsteinach, Germany
in 2010 and as a result has turned FieldTurf into one of the most
vertically integrated companies in the world. The quality control
process at the facility includes stringent testing of the yarn
properties (tensile strength, uniformity and colour verification).

Tufting and Coating: Once the fibre is produced it is ready

for tufting and coating which takes place at FieldTurfs 46,000
square-metre facility in Calhoun, Georgia. Our triple ISO
certification ensures rigorous quality control and inspection under FieldTurf Tufting & Coating Plant -
World Class Manufacturing (WCM) principles. Calhoun, GA

Peace of Mind
Even though you will probably never need to use it, you can rest
easy knowing that youre protected by the industrys best third-
party insured warranty in the unlikely event something goes wrong
with your field. It is peace of mind that sets FieldTurf apart.
