Types of Sports Pitches
We install a range of surfacing options for 3G and 4G sports pitches designed for high-performance play and long-term durability.
3G Artificial Turf
3G pitches feature synthetic grass with sand and rubber infill, engineered to deliver consistent playing characteristics for football and rugby. They meet FA, FIFA and World Rugby standards and are widely used by schools, clubs and community facilities.
4G Artificial Turf
4G pitches use longer pile artificial turf with an integrated shock pad system, eliminating the need for rubber infill whilst providing enhanced player comfort and performance. They offer a cleaner, more sustainable playing surface suitable for football and rugby at all levels.
Choosing a Sports Pitch
When choosing your sports pitch, there are several factors to consider: The space you have available, your budget, the level of maintenance required, what sport it will primarily be used for and how often it will be used.
We can advise you on the best solution for your requirements and discuss additional features to incorporate in your project such as fencing, lighting, drainage and access paths.
