AstroTurf’s RootZone 3D3 system is designed to enhance the playing experience. Its trio of fibers emulates the properties of natural grass while offering superior resilience and durability. The RootZone’s unique layered system is crafted to minimize infill migration, ensuring consistent field conditions and maximizing player safety.
This installation also features BrockFILL from our partners at Brock USA. BrockFILL is a highly engineered wood particle infill specifically designed to improve traction and reduce artificial turf heat. It’s made from a species of southern pine grown, harvested, and replanted in continuous cycles.
