Every time players run, tackle, or shoot on a football turf field, they’re relying on more than just skill — they’re depending on the engineering beneath their feet.


But have you ever stopped to think: What is football turf made of?

Let’s break it down.


🌱 Layer 1: Realistic Synthetic Grass

The top layer is made of high-quality polyethylene fibers, designed to:

  • Feel soft underfoot

  • Look like natural grass

  • Resist UV and wearGlobo Turf uses premium yarns to guarantee natural aesthetics and high resilience — even under heavy use.


🏃‍♂️ Layer 2: Performance Infill

Filling the space between the blades, infill materials ensure:

  • Shock absorption

  • Traction and ball behavior

  • Player comfort


Options include:

  • Silica sand

  • Recycled rubber (SBR)

  • Eco-infill like cork or coconut huskWe customize infill systems based on your field’s needs — professional stadium or school pitch.


🧱 Layer 3: Durable Backing

Beneath the grass lies a two-layer backing system:

  • Holds fibers in place

  • Provides dimensional stability

  • Resists deformation

Combined with a polyurethane coating, this layer keeps your turf looking great and performing well for years.


🛡️ Layer 4: Optional Shock Pad

Want to go a step further?Add a shock pad to improve:

  • Impact absorption

  • Gmax safety values

  • Overall playing comfort

It’s a must for top-tier fields and recommended for frequent use.

Below everything is the unsung hero:

  • A compacted base with drainage channels

  • Prevents water pooling

  • Extends turf lifespan
