Discover How To Have The Best Oval Surface
That Is
Safe To Use All Year Round
Your community ovals are suffering. The once vibrant
sports fields are becoming harder to maintain. Rock
hard, uneven surfaces are a danger to users and
there is a real risk of injury. The costs to maintain a reliable, safe playing
surface is growing.
- Natural grass sports fields can only be played on
for an average of 20 hours per week.
- But synthetic turf can be use for up to 60 hours
of playing per week. Including Australian Rules
football, soccer and hockey.
This means that by resurfacing your sports or soccer
field with SmartGrass not only will they be better
utilised they’ll also be a greater source of
potential revenue for your council.
SmartGrass is a safe alternative to natural playing
surfaces. The CSIRO has carried out extensive testing on
SmartGrass. As a result it carries a 5 year limited
manufacturer’s warranty against excessive fading,
wear and sun damage. And with the drought and water restrictions in
progress in Melbourne,
SmartGrass can be used to
gather water. Simply shape the compacted base to
allow water to drain through the artificial grass
onto your garden beds or install an underground
rainwater tank to catch the flow.

SmartGrass. Testimonial Quote:
“The Darebin International Sports Centre at John
Cain Memorial Park is home to Football Federation
Victoria and has three FIFA 3rd generation synthetic
soccer fields and two grass pitches that were
constructed in 2004. There has been extensive
programming of the three pitches from 9am to 10pm
seven days a week, with usage levels over 60 hours
per week.”
