Mansfield Sand’s Fibreturf® rootzone gives groundstaff and amenity users a helping hand.
Mansfield Sand's Fibresand® is the original and unique blend of silica sand and polypropylene fibres. The incorporation of organic material produces a rootzone that is extensively used throughout the country for football, golf and landscaping applications.
It is the proven surface of choice of leading professional sports and landscaping users in the UK.
Groundstaff appreciate it because it's durable, free-draining and offers flexible maintenance options.
Players love it because it’s a true evenly sprung playing surface that's kind to their body and helps prevent injuries.
Landscape professionals value it because it can maintain a natural grass surface in heavy load bearing applications.
This reinforcement effect is particularly advantageous when grass cover has been reduced due to heavy usage and wear during the winter period. As such, Fibresand® is recommended for:
-
Sports pitch construction
-
High wear areas such as goal mouths
-
Golf Tees
-
Buggy Paths
-
Golf bunker linings
-
Emergency access roads
-
Car parks
Straight polypropylene fibres are used in order to achieve a completely random distribution throughout the matrix of sand particles – producing a completely homogeneous but very cohesive material. When incorporated into an upper sand/soil rootzone and consolidated, the fibres act as a mass of indestructible synthetic grass roots effectively reinforcing or stabilising the rootzone and producing a tighter, more divot resistant surface.
