Football, favorite and popular game of millions in the last decade is going through, as well, and all professional sports, this is truly a technical revolution. This applies to both methods of training athletes and their equipment, medical equipment, and last but not least the construction of soccer fields next generation. A football field is a complex engineering structure with rigid planimetric tolerances. It consists of lawn, foundation, drainage systems and auxiliary systems for heating and watering. Turf football field determines its functional properties.
Now the world there are three types of fields: natural, artificial and mixed. Artificial turf is made of artificial grass and filling. The device differs from the fields of artificial natural only at the stage of laying the lawn. As well as for the natural field is drainage, heating, grounds. To create an artificial field is sufficient to remove the soil to a depth of approximately 30 - 35 cm, the lower layer at 20-25 cm large rubble fill, and the top layer - the smaller, which allows for a flat surface.
Artificial lawns are the latest generation made of a polyethylene fiber, and laying a roll width of ~ 4 m and a length corresponding to the length of the field. Cloth plank at the base (asphalt or crushed stone rammed) and some of the cloth are glued together by means of a polyurethane adhesive tape applied to the assembly of penopropilena. Pile height artificial grass for football is 42 - 67 mm. Worth is filled with quartz sand and rubber granules. That is, the lawn is made up of two main components: the grass and fill (sand and rubber granulate). The task of the lawn - as close as possible and even exceed the functional performance of natural grass.
In addition to the artificial grass a huge role in shaping the functional properties of a football field is filling. At least 50% of field properties as rolling, ball bounce, elasticity, draining capacity and Traumatic safety lawn determines exactly it. Offered by the company «Vip Sport Professional» coating system includes a combined (direct and folded) or grass and the latest generation of clean granular fill for her. This approach ensures the formation of artificial grass with almost ideal functional properties, Traumatic, maximum service life and low operating costs.
In the present system these coatings are used in the Milan stadium "San Siro " - home arena of "Milan" and "Inter", as well as stadiums clubs "Brescia" and "Fiorentina".
Despite the higher cost initially artificial grass can eventually reduce costs. Indeed, it requires far less maintenance and can be used indefinitely without the risk of wear, and without limitations due to adverse climatic conditions. For these reasons, FIFA and UEFA have recognized synthetic field, as a worthy alternative to natural grass.
