FieldTurf Safety
Keeping your athletes safe has and will always be our first priority. Every day, we push the boundaries of research and innovation to engineer the most advanced artificial turf systems in the industry.
While no sport can ever be completely injury-free, we continue to find new ways to reduce the risk and severity of injuries. Our focus on safety has led to numerous injury-reducing innovations and improvements. As a result, we have the products and experience to help you provide the safest playing field possible for your athletes.
Independent multi-year research validates our efforts to provide you and your athletes with the safest field possible.
Leading research has shown that the higher the infill weight is, the lower the injuries.
Heavyweight infill systems (9.0 lbs per sq.ft) have proven safety benefits and are supported by long-term on-field research.

FieldTurf Performance
Independent test results prove that FieldTurf provides leading foot traction for improved performance and optimal release for a safer playing surface. On a natural grass field, players cut, plant, and release in the earth which holds the grass fibers upright. Our FieldTurf system were engineered in the same manner using a unique wide-gauge design to replicate a natural construction.
A study, published in the International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, compared the physical, physiological and perceptual responses of athletes performing on artificial turf vs natural grass. The study concluded:
“The main finding from this study is an improved physical performance on artificial turf compared to natural grass...”
“...performance tasks incorporating greater reliance on agility and change of direction ability are more likely to be enhanced on artificial turf compared to natural grass”
